Speculation: Chicago scouting Colorado (5 straight games, GM in person today)

[Mrfenn92]

Hawks recalled another young defenseman (Del Mastro). This puts them at 8 on the active roster, with another (Murphy) on IR.

Could be a sign of something imminent?

Brodie to Colorado

Brodie to Colorado

Please god no

 

[Mrfenn92]

Please god no

I’m sure it’s not. It’s just how pumped we as hawks fans are about him.

 

[DudeWhereIsMakar]

Probably Mittelstadt+ for Jones.

Update, Kaiser got sent down.
Back to 7.

Probably Mittelstadt+ for Jones.

That wouldn’t make much sense at all. That would require substantial other moving parts.

Mittlestadt to Jones adds significant cap and doesn’t solve the 2C hole.

That would require moving either Girard or Manson. That won’t help fixing the 2C spot

Maybe they swap Mittelstadt+ for Jones with retention, and do a parallel trade involving an extended Rantanen for a 2C, like JT Miller or Petterson.

That would be bananas

 

[EastVillageBlues]

So like what Florida has done with the 2014 draft

So 3-way confirmed:

Drai --> FLA
Barkov --> COL
Rantanen --> EDM

Think this is not nearly as major as most make it out to be. Probably a Dickinson or Donato type of move to not have to play a Colorado Eagles fourth line every game.

maybe but thats a lot of scouting for a minor move.

 

[WTFMAN99]

Ryan Donato seems like the most obvious fit at centre but that's a lot of time to dedicate to a mid level move.

Seth Jones just isn't happening.

Taylor Hall?

...did Sakic have a stroke??...

He means retained
