If you are outraged or overjoyed, you are wrong.
The acceptable emotional range is “meh, bummer” to “meh, okay”.The Hawks ’25/’26 cap hit increased $3.225mm for $2.725mm of real money.
They need to reach the cap floor next season, depending on other off season moves.A year ago, the Hawks acquired Ilya Mikheyev (they were slightly paid to do take on his contract).
He was 1 season removed from ACL surgery.
He was a fantastic defensive forward for the Hawks.
On a team with a -70 goal differential and all goalies below 0.900 save %, he was a +4 over 80 games.
He did this while facing the toughest players on the other team all year.Burakovsky is 1 season removed from 5 separate injuries over the ’22/’23 and ’23/’24 seasons.
Do the Hawks have the magic again to acquire a player becoming fully on the mend from injuries?
I wouldn’t bet on it, or against it.Like I said….. meh.
not an earth shattering move be no means. He did replace a tweener with a guy who is a legit NHL player.
