Confirmed with Link: Hawks aquire Bowen Byram and Jordan Greenway for 4th overall, 45th overall, and Crevier

[dreadpirateroberts]

So, how are they going acquire a top line winger? You have to at this point. However, giving up 4 of your own first round picks for Robertson via offer sheet does not seem like wise asset management and they probably are not going to get Knies now that #4 is off the table.

 

[Hattrick Kane]

If that trade is anything like this, please no.

This meltdown thread will be truly hilarious if the 4th overall pick ends up sucking balls.

 

[AmericanDream]

We took a defenseman 2nd overall.

For this?

We also took a defenseman back in 2003 and 2004....crazy I know.

 

[OhCaptainMyCaptain]

Might be the worst trade of all time

Mr. Bedard please meet your new bodyguard Mr Greenway.

you guys really need to stop acting like Levshunov is a bust

 

[Backyard Hockey]

Mr. Bedard please meet your new bodyguard Mr Greenway.

Yes. Blashill will likely play 4th line plug Greenway on Bedard’s line

 

[Mrfenn92]

Will say Kyle did something for the ones that cried and defended his previous approach

 

[Kevin Musto]

Might be the worst trade of all time

 

[Drumman44]

I don’t like this because now we have to make a desperation move for a winger because now we are artificially shifting into competing mode.

I don’t really want to hear shit about how I’m an idiot for predicting KD’s moves again.

I predicted he’d trade the fourth if he can’t get Stenberg. Predicted Crevier won’t be in the lineup next year. Predicted Byram would be one of his prime targets.

I didn’t predict the 4th for Byram, but I was fishing in the right pond.

 

[AmericanDream]

It’s funny how strongly people will cry and say we’re wrong for saying a move is possible, but then feign shock when a move happens. Davidson kept saying he’s willing to move the pick, and the reports kept coming.

I thought it would go for Knies once San Jose telegraphed they’re taking Stenberg, but a 1D is more valuable than a 1W.

Oh the receipts I have from some folks on here are pretty glorious. Most will run away for awhile, especially after we land Tuch and JRob..but yeah some vindication is in order for those level headed posters who said this shit cant go on any longer and some moves have to be made now to get this going.

I still just don’t understand what about last season told you that you needed to rush this thing forward. They also have a massive amount of forwards that you couldn’t get added? You couldn’t get Ostlund? Quinn? No you added more to 4!! And took their cap dump!

 

[HawksDub89]

I respect the swing by KD here.

I’m only mad about all the time I wasted researching the draft.

 

[MTU34]

They’re gonna throw 11+ at Tuch next

 

[Kevin Musto]

great wingers are on the market

Robertson and Knies

now is the time to strike

 

[Wally1112pac]

I'm sure Bedard is happy about this.

It's time to win hockey games. Tank years are in the past. I hope I never have to look at Tankathon again.

I could have squinted and seen it if Quinn was in the deal. Great player

 

[Blackhawks26]

Not saying he’s a bust, but clearly belief is low that levshunov is qbing a top power play anytime soon.

Could have traded the 4th for a winger maybe if lev had taken a step forward?

 

[AmericanDream]

Reports said 98 was on the trade call as well and approved the deal. This is how you sign your generational stud long term....

 

[ndgt10]

Why would you add anything to the the 4th OA for Byram?

 

[Mrfenn92]

I don’t really want to hear shit about how I’m an idiot for predicting KD’s moves again.

In all fairness we just all think your an idiot

Just kidding

asking a 20 year old to QB the top power play is a ridiculous ask to begin with

 

[Pile]

I expected overreaction. Not a huge fan but we’re instantly better NEXT season. Let it play out. Just sucks Byram wasn’t ours from the get go.
