on the blackhawks hf forum (i don't know if they're smart, but they're very active), they've pretty much completely written off podkolzin as a blackhawks pick
also, colorado missed on hughes AND kakko, and they both went to the east instead. with the emergence of debrincat/strome, this, and the money we have to spent in free agency, the hawks are going to be fun again
trade willson and baez, fuggit. we could probably get a crazy haul for those 2 guys. focus on building for a few years from now when theo's monsters are coming off the books.
2 more years after this year. at this point he's probably focusing on just finding a way to leave the cubs in decent position after 2021 so he doesn't face the same criticisms he did when he left boston (even though those were unfair)
All of them involve the front office actually trading something of value rather than clinging to all their MLB graduates, so no, nothing realistic. so basically a willson trade, since nobody else makes sense. unless you can find a team who still believes bryant is a superstar.
