Gretzky to Lemieux Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 To Van: Seabrook To Chi: Hamhuis, 2016 3rd, and Jensen Keep in mind that I'm just trying to get his value and I haven't put Hammers NTC and Seabrooks salary cap into play. Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2SKATES1STICK Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 Say the Canucks needed a righty and the Hawks needed a lefty and if they both had similar contract length and term I would do Seabrook for Edler straight up. seabrook is older, slower and costs more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monty Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 seabrook is older, slower and costs more Seabrook is 364 days older, so it's not as if he's ancient. He doesn't cost that much more than Edler either. He also barely misses a game. Most importantly, he's a lot better than Edler. But this is all moot because there is no way the Black Hawks trade him for a left handed defenseman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Langdon Algur Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 What happened to getting younger? I'd rather get better than younger. If the goal is simply to get younger I know some kids playing the local TimBits league we could sign Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kassassin213 Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 What happened to getting younger? It would be nice to get younger but if we could add Seabrook who can do everything that Tanev does PLUS can play offence and be nasty I think we have to. Chicago is only going to be in cap hell for this summer. So time to act is now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tyhee Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 What about something around Tanev+? What happened to getting younger? I'd rather get better than younger. If the goal is simply to get younger I know some kids playing the local TimBits league we could sign The question is, why throw away and current and future asset for a current asset? Seabrook is 30. He's got one year left on his contract. He could be lost to free agency in a year. He'll probably be effective this coming season, get another good-sized contract and then face age-related decline during his next contract. Tanev is 25. He's got five years left on his contract. He can't be lost to free agency until he's the age Seabrook is now. The next five years should be his best. How many years of Tanev is one season of Seabrook worth? I think it's a lot less than five. Even if one assumes they re-sign, do we really want to sign Seabrook to a big contract when he's 31 and we're still at least a couple, probably more and possibly quite a few more, seasons away from having a good chance to win a Cup? Remember how we on CDC just love those big, long-term contracts given to players who are, not surprisingly, declining in their thirties. Imo taking Seabrook for Tanev, in the position of the Canucks, would be a serious mistake. That's the sort of move a team knocking on the door of going all the way which has a strong pool of young defencemen should make. That situation doesn't describe the Canucks. There are young d-men in the system who can be expected to be NHL players, but none are elite prospects. Imo the value we're getting from Tanev in 3-5 years is far more important than the difference between Seabrook and Tanev right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shazzam Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 Would be huge if we can get him via UFA. He should have a solid 4-5 years left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slappipappi Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 Send them Corrado and a 4th. Guy is UFA next year and losing steam, fast... You might want to watch the playoffs, he's been exceptionally solid in helping the Hawks to the finals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hunter.S-Kerouac Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 Chi will be looking to dump cap and acquire assets not sure we could swing it. maybe something around Cassles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monty Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 Chi will be looking to dump cap and acquire assets not sure we could swing it. maybe something around Cassles They'll be looking to dump salary, but they'll look at Sharp and Oduya. They have Artemi Panarin coming in to (hopefully) fill in for Sharp, and Ville Pokka should be ready to take over for Oduya. They're not getting rid of Seabrook.

Kaner Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 Definitely can't see the Hawks ever trading him just becasue he's so valuable, but ai could see him signing with a new team next offseason (if Chicago wins the cup this year) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
