I think this year there will be a 2 game stint for players to grab a spot.
We have many D and forwards so should be interesting.
I am for grabbing a 3C in a trade with a year or two contract.That gives Karlsson and Raty a good year or least tdl to be ready for the next year.Same with D men.
Burr would be nice to have back as a 7th or call up.
Bear I don't mind him back but with this injury how long is he out?Will he heal well and be in game shape.
I just don't know about Bear.
But we have for the time
Hronek, Johansson, McWard, Myers.
Really weird trade.
The Hawks better get two of the best ufas to help Bedard out.
Maybe trade a pick or two and get someone with a couple years left on contract as well.
Everyone who watches is a fan.
NHL under Bettman has fallen way behind other sports and now might lose many.
If the owners didn't see this they deserve to lose money.
Bettman should have been fired years ago and if he isn't soon the game will continue to fail making money.
Have to remember this on a EP deal.He wants a 20 team no trade or nmc anything like that the price goes down.
I think he should get no more then 10.5 over 8 seasons with a modified no trade.
This way we flop some how and he's unhappy he has some say.
