Morgan Frost fits bill

Appears to be back in Torts doghouse and struggling to start year

What would Flyers needs be? And what is fair value from Hawks for a guy who has shown potential but still struggles with consistency?

Acquiring Frost would improve Hawks C situation and make it so we dont have to rush Nazer into role

Bedard
Frost
Nazer
Dickinson

Down middle at some point this season/next year could be nice for Hawks


Assets available to trade: Lukas Reichel, Kevin Korchinski, the rights to Sacha Boisvert, 2025 Leafs 1st round pick

Its getting tired at this point your routine

Davidson just drafted Boisvert and was downright giddy he was there when Hawks drafted him. He is not trading him months after

I’m not a flyers fan but frost is definitely not in torts doghouse. He is the flyers 1C with no competition for it. I also wouldn’t be surprised if he is playing thru an injury. He looked to be in pain with his shoulder in the Vancouver game but he hasn’t taken any time off.

Why would anyone want to trade a young 2C without a massive overpayment?

Why would the Blackhawks trade assets away? It’s dumb.
2C is a position of value. So, doubtful Reichel as a pure winger is seen with the same value that a C would return, unless a team believe Reichel was destined to be a 1st line winger.

Sacha Boisvert, not sure what team would move a 24-25 year old for a freshman in college and wait for the kid unless the team was about to embark on a long rebuild.
Korchinski is a D. Always find it odd when a team opts to play a 19 year in the NHL vs leave them in the CHL and then when eligible, sends them to the A at 20.

Realistically, you're pretty much limited to the likes of a Cody Glass type situation to get a young C, a guy who is no longer waiver exempt, that just hasn't found his way in the NHL. There is really no reason for a team to move off a young 2C. Same goes for any other position. Even Detroit, didn't move off Larkin while they were bad and rebuilding. I'd imagine Det got calls on him, but opted to keep him, despite the long rebuild.

But he's bad at face-offs & defense.
Faceoffs to me is something that is pretty fixable on a young player.... i dont think it should be a huge determining factor vs talent ( Bedard has a career face off percentage of 38%, carlsson 34%, fantilli 44% ).... i think its 1 of those aspects that you get better as you get older and get the reps.

Defensively he is not nearly as bad as people try to make him out to be.... and def a part of his game hes improved in throughout his careers so far.
 
It can wait until the offseason . Once Hall and Murphy are traded sign a good young center .

Oliver Kapanen or Owen Beck (Whichever Hab's fans are willing to trade)

for

TJ Brodie + Leafs 1st or Hawks 2nd or Star's 2nd.

Brodie despite being old is a much better then Savard and hopefully would help with Hutsons development.

Is he a center in your opinion in the nhl going forward?
Yes. He's the Caps 3C right now behind Strome and PLD. I think his game is more tailored to being a 2C and he's not going to get that opportunity any time soon in DC. Like the player a lot but wouldn't be opposed to a deal that makes sense for the Caps as currently constructed. Great speed and offensive creativity, needs to get a bit bigger and stronger before he can be a 200-foot player.

He’d be a interesting possibility then
