Millsy Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 I hope JB hopped on the phone and called the Hawks the minute Toews news came out. Right now, the hawks are without Toews and Dach, 2 of their top 3 centers. Strome will be thrust into the 1c spot and there’s literally nothing behind him. With Dach out for most of the shortened regular season, and who knows with Toews, I can see Chicago wanting a veteran and stabilizing presence down the middle. Now I’m not saying Sutter can replace those guys, but he can add depth to a very weak position for them. - he’s got one year left so it’s not a big deal - they have the cap room - we can retain some to make it more appealing for them - we rid a contract and can sign a RD plus Tryamkin at the end of his season. - chi gets some stop gap help. their depth at C is awful. I can’t see them not willing to part with a 4th rounder for Sutter 1/2 retained. http://scores.nbcsports.com/nhl/teamstats.asp?teamno=04&type=dchart thoughts? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gurn Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 Hawks can have Sutter, but I'd prefer to not retain, at least in this case. They need a center, let them pay the premium. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Devron Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 What’s the point he’s gone this summer. You ain’t getting anything good back most likely. Keep him for depth his time as a Canuck is almost over anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rick Blight Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 I think Jack Roslovic would be a more likely target for Chicago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

King Heffy Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 I'd prefer using Gaudette to steal one of their young defensemen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Much like the use of Horvat in defensive situations. Beagle is a 4th liner. No way do I want to see him (at this state in his career - 35 years old) be given more minutes than that.

mll Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 For future considerations? Chicago is rebuilding so they probably aren't all that upset about this involuntary tank. Can’t see them giving up any young assets or picks. The schedule is tough with so many games in such a short time. Teams in the division have all improved and added depth. This comes too late to benefit from the added cap space with the better free agents already off the market. The objective is still to make the playoffs so don’t see Benning wanting to weaken the roster by taking out a lineup regular. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil_314 Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 (edited) Andrew Shaw is coming back. Who knows if he's healthy but there's an answer for them. He scored 0.75 points/ game with Montreal so he's definitely no slouch, but down if they take Sutter for a 2nd like Arizona sold Stepan.
