Value of: Lukas Reichel to NJ

[WhiskeyYerTheDevils]

Devils could use some more speed and skill to fill out their bottom 6. Reichel is an excellent transition player who would fit well in our system IMO. What would Chicago want in return?

He would be a good somewhat reclamation project but the Devils might be better off going down the veteran route unless he can be had for cheap. Most I would part with is a 3rd round pick , our prospect pool can't afford to move anything more.

As a hawks fan just no reason to move him.

I think he’s an absolute bust, but my opinion doesn’t matter so we’ll probably keep him another year or so.

 

[WarriorofTime]

You can sign him for nothing in a year and a half, or maybe even claim him off Waivers before then. You have to hide and bury him on your 4th line just for him to plausibly exist and provide some 4th line level offense, but he also doesn't PK or do other normal 4th line stuff good.

If the prospect of a winger that is the 12th highest scorer on the 28th highest scoring team excites you, he's there for a 2nd round pick. Once we start getting closer to an actual value, Hawks probably just ride out the contract and hope something comes together.

I’d be interested in Melovsky but that’s about it.

Scratch the Devils back this one time, and then when New Jersey has to move one of their defenders, they will come to you first

Kevin Musto will love this thread.

No thanks.

The one thing we do not need whatsoever is young defenseman.

 

[Hawkaholic]

No point in Hawks trading him, not worth much in a trade, so I'd rather him just try to find his game in Chicago.

 

[Behn Wilson]

I love Reichel on Hawks, no interest in moving him. Look forward to watching him develop

Samu Salminen

He plays on same team as Thompson (Hawks prospect) so Hawks likely have seen good amount of Salminen playing
