@mo Yes, there have been break up the core suggestions. The plan is to be in cap heaven, but make the team worse.

Sure in the near future next year maybe....

That's good enough for me. I'm feeling like this roster is set as is. Hawks will ride it to the end

T2 would "terminate that phucker" in a heartbeat

Hey buddy? What ya got in here there? A dead cat?

According to the twitter account for capgeek....the only way TT can be on the team is if a player is put on LTIR or demoted.

I know some are excited about the potential that this kid has but if it were my call i'd just wait until next season.

Think Stan's gonna trade a 2nd for a guy, play him once (I believe) and then lose him on waivers? I don't.

If Saad can't go tues or wed for those 2 tough games,who comes up if anybody, especially for the Blues crap?...............Brandon Mashintor???,Would love to see Q fire a shot across the bow at Hitchcock just once, even start him,,Bollig andShaw ! Just once. Were not gonna catch them ,right? Hmmmmmmm.

When was the last time someone on the Blues hurt someone on the Blackhawks?

Nobody can come up - salary cap.

I would as well....if you waive someone and he poops the bed....you just gave up draft picks for nothing.....and you could ruin this kids psyche and development. I think the answers are on the roster now, it's just a matter of being healthy and the right combinations. Waiving a veteran dman like BBank is stupid, he's player fairly well this year....LTIR for Handzus, you lose a key component of your PK which has been outstanding for two months and is what it was last year at this point......

What if they legitimately believe TT helps win them a cup? Is a cup worth a second round draft pick?

It is a difficult period for a Hawk fan from the "MMA" sector of fandom. Some think the game is still glorified roller derby.

If they put Handzus on LTIR now he can comeback for the playoffs. I also disagree it would ruin his development. That didn't happen to Kruger, Saad, or Smith. I think it's much harder to ruin a forward's development than a defenseman's

Take a look at Bob McKenzie and James Mirtles latest tweets.

Just stop with the Mashintor stuff......please....... The Hawks are not going to bring up a goon just to goon it up...it's not their style, heck it's not the style of the majority of NHL teams. Suggesting it makes you sound like an arse.....

Certainly. But this all happened in a very short amount of time, and said set of moves would indicate that Stan has no plan. IF TT is coming to play for the Hawks down the stretch, that was very likely the plan when Stan obtained Rugrat. This suggests that Stan has either another way to get TT on the roster, or that he doesn't plan on adding him.

I'm not saying I'd be against it, just reading the StanBo tea leaves.

Bob knows his stuff.

I can't see Stan waving anyone to make room for TT. However putting somebody on LTIR is a different story.

True, but there is always a chance he gets knock on his head and becomes scared to play....or if he makes a mistake that costs the team the game....

To me, the only realistic path is LTIR for Caboose. If TT lights it up, Zues comes back for the playoffs when the cap is gone. If he doesn't, they shut him down to save a contract year and Zues gets fresh (like Hossa's legs did).

Some Hawk fans are in a tough spot - they like roller derby hockey, but their team is winning Cups playing a style they hate. Sucks....

What do the tweets say, for the Twitter-less among us?

He probably just black aces it up until the playoffs
