I don't think JT wants to go to Chicago. Try again! |

Maybe this is where a 3 team deal happens. NY gets Miller and Columbus or another team gets what they need. Could be what's happening right now. |

I would take that same advice if I were you, try again. It didn’t say JT for Seth |

There is talk that if JT doesn’t get moved, Guerin will try to get him in the off season.

Next season, the Hawks lose Taylor Hall, Athanasiou, Martinez, and over $3M of buyout space. That's $18M off the cap. They will need to spend at least $10M just to reach the cap floor. Losing Jones' $9.5M puts them way below the floor. That puts them in a situation where they are signing trash for inflated prices. So much better off just keeping Jones. He can mentor guys like Vlasic and Levshunov. So none of this is happening. |

Just an FYI on the stats here...
Jones has played 31 games, not 37.
He has missed 16 games, not 17.
His points per game this year is not up a little bit from last year...it's up a whopping 40% and is the 2nd highest of his whole career.
His contract has 3 more years, not 5. Even if we count this season, that's 4 not 5.

...but clearly he was running around Reunion Arena dreaming of putting hockey skates on... |

Eklund: On Seth Jones and Why a Trade is NOT Impossible…
- Eklund
Watching TSN this morning, and during the Nashville - San Jose highlights, Jay Onrait makes a comment about William Eklund, as San Jose throw away the game:
"That'll teach Eklund for starting that hockeybuzz website."
Thought that was pretty cool, doubt many people watching would get that reference.

Wouldn’t be a scenario where they are signing players to inflated contracts. Bedard will be signed to a new contract after this year.
