What we want is to complain about overpayment AND complain about efforts to save money.

We want to complain that they protected Kampf, and then also complain that they don't want to overpay them.

We like our fluid female doging.

Didn't he score about half his goals against Detroit?

Because he is horrific defensively, and if you are going to go strictly by offense, you keep Strome as your 3 C (or Borgstrom) becuase Strome's offensive upside is way higher,
- LAHawk


Is there even room for him on the roster? Clearly the Hawks are giving Nylander another shot. Gaudette and Hagel just resigned.

Connolly still on the roster. I assume Hardman gets a shot too since he is under contract. Kurashev will be on the roster.

Then you have Strome still and presumably Borgstrom gets a shot to stick.

Perhaps the Hawks think Enwhistle is ready for a full season? There are a lot of bodies for the bottom 6.

Pretty sure. Can't imagine he'd miss all this fun and frivolity the past several days.

Do you really want to pay him $3M ?

He's arbitration eligible and was on pace for ~20 goals in his first season prorated.

- rpeters01

Rather pay him $3.0 than Zadorov, and Z is gonna get more than that. Ludicrous.

No, just a figure of speech. The name does bring some PTSD flashbacks.....

Agreed. Where is Zadorov going to play? Going to pay him 3 mil plus to rotate in on the bottom pairing? Pass.

Remember you’d get Fifed if you posted that back in the day? Wonder what ever happened to Fife?

problem is Hawks have been allegedly actively shopping Zadorov since last deadline if you believe the blue check marks.

SO either Stan is asking TOO much, or the offers are well below market value.....game of chicken and at this point....just walk away. Last you want to do is pay this guy close to 4+ million and get stuck with him.

According to Powers, Hawks are still negotiating with Kampf. FWIW
