I don’t think they can re-sign Strome because if you assume a healthy Seabrook, Shaw, and Smith, there is no cap space if I’m reading it right. That’s nearly 14 million tied up in three non-performers, lol. Toews going on LTIR is a band-aid, but this cap management for what ultimately is a bottom 5 team is atrocious. I suspect they will find a sign and trade for Strome and try to get another 1st round pick reclamation project.

Unless Seabrook And Shaw coming back really fucked things up, as you said...but damn I thought they had some room this year seeing as how they were basically the shits and trying to play more kids. Crow departing has to be some savings or at least cancels out Seabrook (almost), no?

According to Cap Friendly they have over 4M in cap space to re sign Strome. That should be twice as much as he's going to get. www.capfriendly.com/teams/blackhawks

They have a shit load of space. 4,2 million without any LTIR used, and with no offseason 10% either. And Toews is going to go on IR, so there is a lot of room to play with.
They can afford to give Strome the money, and his agent 100% knows that, too. And good for Stan to not cave. Get Strome at a manageable number or let him sit. Fuck his demands.
I'd rather watch Wallmark center the top line than overpay for Dylan fucking Strome.

If those two are healthy, that’s 10 million that has to be accounted for, right?

And if Toews doesn’t come down with some mystery ailment, then what?

It says $0 on LTIR, even if the players are listed under that part of the graphics. That's just for seeing who's playing with whom etc.

So the Hawks do have a lot of cap space then. I guess that's good. No point in maxing out to finish in the bottom 5.
(watch Stan sign Hoffman to a big deal out of the Blows Tryout camp...because, Stan...)

Hawks should do what the Hurricanes did and help out a cap-strapped team by taking on a bad contract and a blue chip prospect.

I probably need to be on my 10th beer and naked to understand the cap.
