For roster space reasons I suspect Reichel would almost immediately be headed to Cleveland. CapFriendly suggests he's still waiver eligible, so that's not a notable objection. The biggest issue - and it can possibly be set aside here, depending on circumstances (I haven't kept up with how he's doing) - is that we have too many folks in Columbus and Cleveland already and this would be adding another (since Ceulemans is still doing the NCAA thing).

Cuelemans is in Cleveland.
 
Not sure another forward is needed for Columbus. Not sure how Tampa would feel.
As a hawks fan just keep Reichel and hope for some improvement going forward. Nothing but time going forward.

Major will be excited when he see's this :laugh:. Id do it from Columbus' side. Keep Boqvist and role with Jiricek-Severson-Boqvist/whoever as the 3 righties

Somewhat less excited because Reichel looks like dogshit every time I've tuned in to the Hawks this year. Just unreasonably soft and weak.

I'd absolutely swap Ceulemans for Reichel, and then just stash Reichel in the AHL, hoping he figures it out later. But that's easy because Ceulemans doesn't even look like he'll be an NHLer. It doesn't have much bearing on your proposed lineup.

I suspect the Hawks fans want a prospect with better NHL upside than Ceulemans, and there might be one that suits both sides. I might take a swing just to see what happens with Reichel. I don't know why he is so bad this year.

Been a bit befuddling to see him play this year. Just no confidence, weak as hell on the puck and loading.

I’d easily do Cuelemans for Reichel. Cbus adds too (Cuelemans is a HUGE project). This would be giving Reichel away for free… plenty of better prospects to choose from.

Don’t see the point in it for Chicago though. He is supposed to be a long term piece.

Matchups and linemates will do that. A lot easier to play more sheltered minutes with AA (underrated) and Kurashev, behind all the guys last year.

He also hasn't been terrible impressive and off to a pretty slow start. Not sure how much ice time he is getting but he has at least picked up a few assists in the last couple of weeks.
He is the 2nd line centre on a team with no wingers.

And this does what for the Lightning, exactly?
Gives them the only good player in trade proposal. Actually either proposal.
