There’s actually not a lot around this offseason, especially with the cap increase. Most teams are able to take the hit without having to dump assets.Anyone got a prediction on a cap dump forward pickup in the off season?
That's what I was afraid of looking at the future cap hits on cap friendly. So the Hawks could be GF starved again even if their GA improves.There’s actually not a lot around this offseason, especially with the cap increase. Most teams are able to take the hit without having to dump assets.
It depends on a few things. The powerplay largely needs to be reworked. If the Hawks can trade or sign someone with actual offensive ability. If we win Celebrini. If Luke stops with the nonsense lines and players. We won’t know until next year.That's what I was afraid of looking at the future cap hits on cap friendly.

Also depends lol. How many games is Soderblom playing? Does the coaching try to fix defending the back door passes? Do they finally teach them how to properly defend 2 on 1s. There’s a lot of system issues defensively from both forwards and defense alike that need to be fixed.Assuming the Hawks ice SJ, AV, KK, EDM and WK on d next year would you expect their GA to improve?
Blackwell is a grinder but has very little skill.Collin Blackwell has stone hands. Can't clear. Seth tied up in front. 5-1. Hatty for Forsberg.
Had to if soderblun doesn’t play. He’s good for at least 4 GA every gameAssuming the Hawks ice SJ, AV, KK, EDM and WK on d next year would you expect their GA to improve?
He's on pace for 75 pts/82. If you would have told me that before the season I'd have taken it. He has no help. It's actually amazing he's doing that at 18 years old with zero help.Still hoping Bedard gets PPG for the season but that's a tall task with his lack of talent. He has to get really hot the next 3 games and unless Carolina, Vegas and the Kings rest alot of guys, it's likely not happening.
