Blackhawks put Bickell on waivers.

That's the opposite of ungood.

Wow, really unclear how the cap hits and salary work if someone claims him.

really? if a team takes him they take him with current contract, hawks have nothing to do with it anymore

Do you think anyone will claim him? I'd say it's unrealistic.

Danny DeKeyser out 3-4 weeks with a foot injury

:

Jakub Kindle/Mike Green pairing is going to be awesome!

Maybe they can win some 7-6 games in the meanwhile.

salary floor teams may take a look. really the only one that make sense though is Arizona. maybe New Jersey but I don't see it.

almost no chance

if a team wanted him, they'd be better off trading for him and asking the Hawks to retain some of his salary or to throw in some type of sweetener for helping them get his contract off their books.

and if no one claims him some of his cap hit can be buried in Rockford.

Who wouldn't want a player with questionable dedication, an injury history, an overpaid multi-year contract, and a current bout of vertigo?

Feel bad for Bickell. Great guy, terrible contract.

If anyone is extremely extremely bored tonight likely around 6:30, I'll be on the radio here talking about the Peterborough Petes. http://m.extrapeterborough.ca/

Who told Bickell? Q? How do you think that conversation went down?

Reminds me of Huet's contract. Great guy, but the contract really turned out bad for Chicago. Huet handled his demotion and eventual assignment to the Swiss league with class and dignity.

Yeah I thought there was some weird rule about that this year....but it's the only being allowed to capture 950k in cap space if someone is sent to the minors that I was thinking about.

Yeah you have to, great guy and can't fault him for signing that deal.

Torres should be out of the league

 

[Billy Bats]

Foligno, Saad and Johansen have put up 10-15-25 in three preseason games together. I think Columbus might have something there.

Torres is a pathetic man.

Cleared waivers, not being sent down.

Columbus is really fun to watch. Making Henrik stand on his head.

Real good team happening there.

I'm not sure that I'm convinced yet.
