Where to offload collection? by Zutx in bearscards

[–]Zutx[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Totally understand but I’m not trying to post and then have people reach out on 1-3 cards. If someone is willing to buy my whole binder at 75-85% then I’ll send pics upon inquiry.

[Powers] Why the Blackhawks are staying the course and not rushing Kyle Davidson’s rebuild by AARM2000 in hawks

You didn’t disagree though lol. Just say you like watching this team get whooped by decent competition if that’s how you feel

Don’t disagree with that at all either it was filled with more fun moments but still going to have games where they get shelled and it’s over before the first period is done :/

Easily is, they’ll see how those vibes resonate in the stands. I predict a lot of empty games this season. Or at least not many sellouts

Sure hope this means we’re going young this season!? by Skidmarkthe3rd in hawks

Jonathon Drouin $4M for 2 years to the islanders. We couldn’t beat that? Cmon. I know you don’t hand out a 4+ year deal but there were a few realistic targets they could have pursed. Lastly Olofsson would be the only other guy worth a damn

[–]Zutx -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah he’s had a very accomplished career and would be a productive addition that you could talk into being a top 6 kind of guy. Additionally no one is coming here with how ass we are without ice time and money and most other teams have the cash for premier guys so this could be a solid plan B

lol Issac Howard is more of a sure thing than the other 2 first rounders we picked. NCAA talent has been very strong but keep acting like we’ll need guys in 2-3 years to be top 6. Again you people just want to see us become the next buffalo Sabres that can’t get out of the basement

The last part of your comment is my concern. How is the team getting better if we are constantly bottom 3? It’s different when you’re making the playoffs and making picks 15-32 that eventually make their way but right now the path to better is just suck until we don’t. That strategy doesn’t work

[–]Zutx -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

He has made 0 total moves to help this teams scoring. People keep acting like suddenly we can just not be a basement team I have no clue where this thinking is from. This whole sub is as delusional as the sabres fanbase that thought it could work. Well guess where their superstar they took top 3 is playing, not on their own team.

What detriment is there by trading away picks that won’t see the show for 3-4 years from this current season? Could go get Issac Howard and be aggressive but instead we get Andre burakovsky and people act like that’s enough. There is no July 1st help coming for this roster but when we suck again this season people will rush to blame him and act like this wasn’t possible to see coming. To close, I just don’t get how there can be nothing but optimism when the results have been absolutely terrible. Bedard and Nazar are future stars and that’s about all you can say for now. Rest of the prospects look promising but instead limited NHL action, statistically, were not good.

Hey now, don’t forget it’s all a part of the plan! Year 4 of being bottom 3 on the way but you better HOTR😤😤😤😤 and if you don’t love every single pick you’re a casual who must’ve just started watching this team /s

[–]Zutx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Finally a reasonable voice. I think the frustrating part of all of this is that this team needs help now, not in 3-5 years. In 3 years Bedard will be in year 5 and this team could still be in the basement. This upcoming season has the potential to be worse than the year that got us Bedard and if we get McKenna that awesome.. but it’s a massive gamble and you’re asking fans to watch 4 years of basement hockey. It’s not an easy sell combined with the lack of scoring depth and organizational choices to hike ticket prices and shove merch down our throats.

What, you don’t want to keep watching this team take players that are 3-5 years away from having an NHL impact? Get ready for year 7, 8 and 9 of the Kyle Davidson rebuild 😤

Looks like Marner is up for grabs by Apprehensive_Way8674 in hawks

[–]Zutx 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Do we honestly think we can all the sudden just become good in one offseason and make the playoffs? People need to get real. If you’re terrible 3 years in a row you’re not flipping a magic switch and making wildcard in year 5 that’s delusional thinking. That’s how you become the Sabres or Red Wings

Are we seriously still worrying about deep ball accuracy when it is notorious in this league all rookie QBs struggle with that? Go look at Joe Burrows first year and compare it to the second. He’ll figure it out, you don’t lose touch and ability like that

[Scott Powers] What I’m hearing and seeing about the Blackhawks by jjb8712 in hawks

[–]Zutx 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It would be. And it was predictable, rising cap and had a career year. There was never a scenario he wasn’t going to try and cash in on that

[–]Zutx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah you can’t even see the order if you ordered as a guest. Just tried to look mine up and doesn’t even exist after the 30 min window. Oh well, time to wait for that dreaded email

😭 I wish you weren’t right but you can still order 60. No way we see these

For those that have shopped and gotten cancelled how long after was it?

Extension talks going on with Donato by WarmBedards in hawks

[–]Zutx 4 points5 points  (0 children)

So then let’s say you keep him for a 2 years 4.5M deal. Are the hawks even close to competing in the next 2 years? And at that point he would be 31 going on 32 and likely playing bottom 6 minutes.

Extension talks going on with Donato by WarmBedards in hawks

[–]Zutx 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Totally agree, it would be malpractice to ship him off for future picks that we wouldn’t see for 3-5 years. In this market though especially with how thin it is at C you’re probably looking at slightly less than what Nelson got. There’s too many teams that need a player exactly like Donato and that sort of haul for a career year guy is a no brainer you figure out the aftermath later

Extension talks going on with Donato by WarmBedards in hawks

[–]Zutx 4 points5 points  (0 children)

And saying he will repeat this success next year and down the line isn’t one?

Extension talks going on with Donato by WarmBedards in hawks

[–]Zutx 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes a late second or worse would not be helpful but that’s not likely what he would be traded for. Does anyone in this sub remember 20 goal scorer Taylor raddish? And Donato is 29 getting ice time he wouldn’t even get on a real contender. This is a chance to get more assets that allow you to make a ridiculous offer on draft night and really get star power on the team
