CRAZY_4_NAZZY Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 It's kinda funny that 5 hours later since the guy tweeted the trade, no confirmation from the Blackhawks or any NHL insider...haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoughtysCheck Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 Kruger is pretty much like a Dorsett Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaku Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 No surprise. Las Vegas and Chicago have been going after this for a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Vintage Canuck- Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 It was pretty much done deal in the last week or so, interested to know the return. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is speedy, skilled and defensively responsible. Guy has more offensive upsdie then has been given opportunity or yet to have shown in a deep Chicago team. Expect an increase in production and a bigger role. Good news for Kruger, always liked that player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good news for Kruger, always liked that player. I feel like that is what Dorsett is as well. Skilled, defensively responsible, PK, speedy. He's produced like Dorsett over the years in terms of points. Only upside over Dorsett I see would be his capability to win faceoffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would they be able to make a deal to ensure that one player is picked instead of another off of their exposed list for the expansion draft and offer Kruger as the incentive or reward for doing so?

Toews had a bad first half and his contract is Burrows' on steroids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beary Sweet Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 Good move for Vegas. They get a skilled bottom 6 center who will help them become a good team in the early going. Expect a team like the Ducks to probably make a move as well with their stacked D, forward group Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HerrDrFunk Posted June 10, 2017 Share Posted June 10, 2017 Is there any return for Kruger or does Vegas just get him and not take a player from Chicago in the expansion draft? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the deal probably includes Vegas taking the specific player Chicago tells them to take at the ED. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
