Heard some rumblings about cousins in Buf, Not happy with his play and his willingness to float ,LOL big money for him, but he did put up pretty good numbers a couple years, thing some of you wanted him instead of Dach, wonder if Kyle has any interest ? Some of us wanted to trade down and take Cozens, if he's available KD should make an offer. He's a big 2C the Hawks need. NHLtraderumors on X is reporting the Hawks are targeting Cozens. maybe the hawks are indeed targeting him but if NHL Trade Rumors is reporting it and it actually comes true, it would likely be their first time they got one right. just for shits and giggles, they are speculating we're offering murphy, oliver moore and a 2nd. |

So they're basically an Eklund, good to know. Oilers need a right handed D, we know Bowman likes Murphy, take the forward Skinner back and a pick or prospect. |

I was one of those who wanted to trade down. My feeling at the time was that one of Cozens or Dach would be available at pick 7-8. Cozens is still growing into his game. If he is available, I would make an offer. Big centres are not available very often. Adding Cozens would help compensate for the shortsighted Dach trade. Perhaps Buffalo would consider Frank Nazer and Kaiser or Del Mastro. |

And he’s been rather awful this year so far. So Moore, EDM for Cozens!!! |

I wouldn’t move Donato yet. He’s on fire and he gives a legitimate option right now next to bedard. Personally I’d love Teuvo back up with them both . The FO has to weigh Donato's value to a team seeking respecability this year vs his value toward acquiring a younger player who could help the team for many years......let's hope their scale's working. Exactly. I think a guy like Donato might have more value at the TDL, but if a legit move that addresses a need comes our way it should be entertained and explored. A trade for trade's sake does us nothing. Heard some rumblings about cousins in Buf, Not happy with his play and his willingness to float ,LOL big money for him, but he did put up pretty good numbers a couple years, thing some of you wanted him instead of Dach, wonder if Kyle has any interest ? The floating part worries me; not going to lie. We have too many players who have willingness to float already and I'm not confident that the coaching staff can rein it in. |

One player who might be of interest to the Sabres is Lucas Reichel. The Sabres already have JJ Peterka, who played with Reichel in Germany and is about the same age.
Would Reichel and one of the young surplus defencemen be enough? Perhaps. If Cozens is on the market, I suspect it's because of money. Cozens makes $7.1 M/year until 2030.

Buffalo has plenty of wingers. Including 3 first round picks that position in the minors |

I would highly suspect he will end up “injured”. Hawks have enough forwards so this move won’t hurt. But it’s good to make moves like this, let it be known that a losing culture won’t be tolerated. It’s been tough to keep interested in this team. And AA is one of the reasons why. The team is filled with underperforming veterans that won’t be here very long. Hopefully we see some of the young forwards over the next year to year and a half!!! |

Anthanasiou was placed on waivers. He'll get picked up, and the Hawks will be able to bring up someone else to try out, e.g. Dach or Slaggert. |

I am Jack's complete lack of surprise... too bad he looks like we won't be able to move him for squat at the deadline now. I hope someone claims him, but I highly doubt anyone will... |

I don’t know if he’ll get picked up but if the plan is a full development year for all the prospects I’d bring up Guttman. At least he’s a centre with 77 points in 87 AHL games, was 51.2% in FO’s in his Blackhawk time. He’s only 5’10” but a pretty solid frame and isn’t afraid of traffic. Give him a game or two between any combination of Hall, Bertuzzi and Teravainen. There’s little to lose at this point. |

He's a more intelligent player than AA, who seems to skate extremely fast and then lose the puck. I would say insert Gutman instead of Joey Anderson. |

The Hawks are going on the road for a couple of games, but then they return back to Chicago in just over a week.
My guess is they decide during the short term to go with 22 players. Why carry the extra forward just to have him sit?
I'm hopeful (though more than a bit cynical) that management remains patient and leaves Nazer and the other prospects where they are now for the majority of the season.
If the coach needs a temp fill, Guttman is ideal. He is basically a finished product and won't be damaged by the yo-yoing.

If the coach needs a temp fill, Guttman is ideal. He is basically a finished product and won't be damaged by the yo-yoing. I agree. However we have to start considering that this is very tough for Bedard. He doesn’t really have anyone close to his age. I’m starting to think that this is a rough year for him. He goes back to his hotel room while everyone else goes out and has fun drinking. He needs a few guys his age on this team. Or at least 20 years old. So bringing up Nazar and giving him a lessened role may be what he needs. Last year he had KK there. Now he’s not. I’d bet Bedard isn’t feeling the most comfy at the moment. Most of these guys could be his dad. Let’s hope the team can get some younger pieces in here sooner than later!!! |

Seems like Martinez is pretty close, so I wonder who is going to sit. I assume Allan?

I assume Allan? it's looking that way. saw another lineup that had shevy at wing and CB at center. idk how many will agree but i like reichel back with smith and maroon, even though he's been playing better. in fact, as far as the fwd lines go, i like them top to bottom. i hope luke is able to keep these lines intact for a few games. |

If Kurashev does line up at center that frees Bedard up from some responsibility and gives him two inside sticks to aim for for one timers. Sounds good on paper, we'll see how it works. |

I like Reichel back with Smith, and that 3rd line, the top6 isn't good, Hall and Bertuzzi need to be split up and why put two smaller forwards with Bedard, makes zero sense having three parameter players and the biggest is 6' 190lbs. And 1pt Kaiser should be sitting instead of Allan, but really TJ should be sitting, Martinez and TJ shouldn't be dressed at the same time. |

I think all you’d need to do is swap Bertuzzi and Teravainen. If Bedard centres than Bert can line up at LW and Kurashev can be the RW, the position where he by far had his best production and yet it’s the one position he hasn’t been allowed to play yet this year. TT can fit anywhere and that combo with Foligno and Hall might actually work. |

As I feared, the minute the coach has at his disposal the full lineup of veteran defencemen, he will start sitting the kids.
Last night it was Allan. My guess is that he will likely be rotating for the most part with Kaiser until Davidson steps in.
Incredibly stupid and shortsighted.
This is a development year. Kids need to play big minutes every night to get better. They will not improve by watching in the press box or listening to the "wisdom" imparted from cynical veteran has-beens and never-was types....
There is a reason why most of the players Davidson brought in here over the summer were available. Virtually the entire lineup is disposable short-term fill, a lineup deliberately created to provide a temporary distraction until the legit talent is ready.
Removing Allan from this sh*tshow ASAP is essential to his continued growth. Tanking a roster only works as a strategy if management remains patient and maintains priority on protecting the kids.

Looks like Hall and Bertuzzi are finally split up, it happened during the Seattle game but the lines are really mixed up before the Vancouver game. Donato-Bedard-Smith Hall-Kurashev-Foligno Teravainen-Dickinson-Anderson Maroon-Reichel-Bertuzzi Unfortunately Martinez and Brodie are dressed and Allan is sitting. Not sure why Kaiser is playing after taking out Mrazek for the GWG vs Seattle, some players are held accountable and others aren't. |
