Ooh another "I hate the Blackhawks" blog! There's no way the Hawks trade Kane, especially to a cap dump team like your Yotes lol. Say what you will but the only real bad contact the Hawks have is Seabrook and that contact really sucks.

Elite player is an elite player. Kane is better than all but 4 or 5 centres.

I don't care what the position you need is, you go after the best player available .

- James_Tanner


So even though it is "100% necessary for the Coyotes to now add a #1 centre to play with Kessel," they should use most of their best trade assets to land something other than a #1 center? Sounds like it's not quite 100%, more like, "They probably should try to get one, unless there's a better winger to be had."

Maybe without all of the great contracts handed out by the boy genius (Schmaltz, Dvorak, Goligoski), they would have had more than $200K in cap space and could have pursued a UFA like Duchesne or Pvelski or could make a huge push to trade for a player with a team in cap trouble (Point, Stastny, Karlsson, etc.). But now, their only option is to trade multiple non-roster assets because they have no cap room to add any sort of significant cintract.

I rarely comment on this site.
Iam here more for the entertainment value.
Granted...I used to think everyone was just rude to Ek because...well,why not.
But slowly I have discovered that Ek is kind of a tool...but hey that is his right.
But seriously Tanner,
You consistently come up with the worst crap on this site.
Do you have a dartboard of stupid stuff to talk about and just throw caution to the wind?
It is seriously embarrassing how uneducated in the way of hockey you seem to be sometimes.
Step up your game Tanner!
Unless of course...you are actually doing this on purpose for some moronic reason to just annoy people...then well done sir.

He's basically trolling his own articles, because he know it will get responses.

And so do I, but he's so good and the stuff he writes is so mind-numbingly stupid that, well, I'm here contributing to the problem.

So much butthurt on this thread. It’s a blog from a noted reaction-writer. Relax, for (frank)s sake.

Wow this is one of the more ridiculous things i've read this week. Wish I could wager this guy. Hawks are making the playoffs. Solid work this summer, improved a lot.

Nice work James, there are some goodies in there, but the real gold is in the comments section.
Do the Penguins fans next.

Patrick Kane is the Sidney Crosby of the Hawks. He’s more valuable than anyone else on that roster. He’s a household name and a hero as far as Hawks fans are concerned. He sells tickets, he sells merch, and he’s a huge draw for anyone thinking about playing in Chicago whether it be an NHL UFA, euro, or undrafted college FA. Doesn’t make any sense from Chicago’s perspective

Also, I think the Hawks are a wild card team in the West

I agree with Tanner', actually

They should also trade for Hedman, and Crosby

Of course, Tampa would have to take back contract like Gologoski (since the Hawks would take Stepan...TB can take Gologoski to replace Hedman)

They can then trade Demers to PITT who need D help...and maybe reluctantly give Soderberg to replace Crosby at C. Then Malkin will have his own team in Pitt

Az then will have -
Crosby, Kessell, Kane, Dvorek, Schmaltz and Keller jn their top 6 with Hedman, Hjalmarsson, Chychrun and OEL as a top 4. Along with the best goalie tandem in hockey

GMing is easy

- PatShart


Just make sure there is Cap space available to sign the NHL's best (and yet unsigned) D-man, Gardiner.

With Hedman and Gardiner pushing OEL down to 2nd pairing, the Yotes will be a force.

I think we have the makings here of a Cup contender....

Also. According to Corsi #s. Taylor Hall is the better analytic guy than Kane. And is actually probably obtainable.

Now, Tanner being the Poster Child for all thing analytic.....you think he would be all over a Taylor Hall to Yotes rant.

C'mon Jim. Get on the horm. Your genius GM should be all over Hall.....give him a call!!!!

Good article, James. No harm in speculating and I would love to see Kessel and Kane on the same team.
