Zach Jarom: Game Four: Hawks vs Flames

First

Any explanation why Donato is sitting. I thought he has been one of the best forwards in the first 3 games.

They need to showcase AA a few more games before the trade....?

Smith has compromising pics of LR or KD?

Carrying over from the last thread -
Everyone saying Murphy will most likely get moved next year - I could see them moving him this year if there is a taker, if the Hawks retain 50% of his contract. It wouldn't affect them next year cap wise.

Some mix of prospects+picks getting traded should happen either during this season or next offseason.

Rantanen and Marner still haven't signed extensions,wonder if they'll be too rich for KD and company and their stupid salary cap phobia

It wouldn't hurt if AA scored a few so the Hawks could get a 3rd rounder for him. More AJ Spellacy picks!

That there sounds more like our buddy PE

I don't think they have any concerns with the salary cap. Mostly it's been about giving term to guys that would be taking a spot from one of the prospects.

I’m also fine with their salary cap phobia. We know what the opposite gets us.

I wish they’d give Kaiser-Allan a try. Both can skate and make solid plays, unlike the guy who is somehow the cemented 5th defenseman.

Hoping for another solid effort, Hawks have really played just about as well as they can outside of the Utah 1st period. The guys are really battling for each other, just would like to see better passing and more puck possession. It would be incredible to come home 2-1-1 to start the season with all the games on the road. However, I am predicting 4-1 Calgary. Bedard with the only Hawks score.

Somebody has to explain up in the press box to Reichel what's going on.

In my eyes he has been one of their best forwards since preseason. If they were scratching him to play a youngster it would make more sense, but for Smith/AA, that doesn’t make any sense. But hey, there’s bigger fish to fry than worrying about a fourth liner.
