The Blackhawks dump the BIckell deal at the cost of Teravainen for draft picks. Another offseason, another cap purge by the Hawks...

How are we gonna do the offseason in NPR? Different threads for everything? Megathread? Does it matter?

That seems like a pretty big cost just to get rid of Bickell's salary. Teravainen has a lot of upside, doesn't he?

Wow... I've liked everything I've seen from Teravainen and he's only 21. Incredible.

Oh, and we'd prefer separate threads for interesting moves like this, but in NPR, you guys can have at it and do what you want. We'll have separate threads for transactions in the Penguins section for sure.

He has mild upside yeah. Probably 2nd line upside...

I'm not wild about him. He might end only be a high-end third liner...nothing "special" or anything I don't think...Carolina becoming Team Finland? Saarela-Teravainen-Aho...?

Wow, Bickell has a M-NTC and yet he was still traded!!! I guess that puts a big kabosh on the people that like to toss their hands up and say "but he has a NTC so he cant be traded" /sarcasm

Chicago only has $9M in space with only 7 forwards signed.

He was also stuffed in the minors unceremoniously...

man, Chicago really has their hands tied with their cap situation.

Teravainen probably does''t have the highest upside, but the Pens just won a cup based on forward depth.

If I were them, I would've tried to dump Crawford first

Nobody wants a 'meh' goalie for that kind of cash.

How do you know that they didn't? They may have called every team in the league about Crawford.

I can't wait for Crawford to get traded and turn into a steaming pile of suck.
