kliq 3,755 Report post Posted February 14, 2018 Curious if people would re-think this now almost a year later. I truly think the right move last off season would have been for the Hawks to trade Toews. He's not worth 10.5 mil/year and the Hawks are now stuck with him for 5 more seasons at that cap hit.

Hopefully the squeak into the playoffs (so they dont get a good pick) and get their asses handed to them again.

xault 272 Report post Posted February 16, 2018 I don't see a team that would be willing to take his salary. Maybe to ARI to help them sell more seats and keep them at the cap floor. Maybe.. Seattle if he continues to fall. I don't doubt he has a NTC. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No, the Hawks are going to fall. Seabrook bad contract, Keith is done, Toews and Kane both have bad contracts, Crawford sucks, Saad sucks, they traded away Panarin lol. They won't be relevant for awhile, they don't scare teams anymore. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

shocky2002 36 Report post Posted February 25, 2018 Btw, Toews has actually had a good year. He was overrated last year and in 2016. But not anymore. Hawks have really solid possession metrics with him on the ice vs off. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As much as people hate Abby's, Nielsen's, and Helm's contracts, I would rather be stuck with any one of those than be stuck with a 10 mil+ per year Toews contract with a NMC.
