    ……ain’t that a kick in the teeth. We didn’t forget 2014, Alec.

    Veteran depth and locker room presence to help out KK/Kaiser/Del Mastro. Am not against it for the right price.

    Guess this means we are trading a D man….I’m all for veteran leaders but I think we are at the point we need players and leaders.

  4. Huh. Didn’t expect this signing. Gives us 3 vets (Jones, Murphy, and Martinez), and three young guns (Korchinski, Vlasic, and EDM/Kaiser/Crevier/possible Levshunov). I like that mix.

  5. Random thought but it seems the hawks are building their team having the Edmonton/Mcdavid case study in mind. Their weakness is no defence/depth around their star and Davidson is learning from that.

    I still have nightmares about 2014, but I like the signing

    3 veterans on defense now, Korchinski, Vlasic, and whoever fills the last spot isn’t an awful d core at all

    Not a flashy signing but he’s a dude that’s been around forever and has a ton of report and respect in the league. Knows how to win and that is imperative at this stage of the rebuild. I like it.

    A new babysitter for Korchinski that is more competent than Tinordi or Magna!

    Good signing but I have a ton of nightmares of 2014. Ughh

    That’s cool to see Alec Martinez with the Hawks. I remember his playoff battles against us. I can’t believe that was 10+ years ago now.

  11. Dudes gonna be so reliable next to KK. Good depth piece. Fuck him for 2014 tho

  12. Payback for 2014 – he has to deal with this dogshit team and Söderblom in net all damn season
