Didn't even think of them, even though they are a future bomb waiting to explode I can't see any of those 3 being buyout candidates.

About $9M a year for 2 years
No cash spent
Traditional buyout:
$4.6M a year for 2 years and then $300K for 2 more years
$1.2M in salary paid
So the Hawks could spend $1.2M and gain abut $4.4M in cap space for those 2 seasons.

Do traditional buyout apply here? I really don't know.
Edit: That's assuming they can convince Hossa to play 2 years at 1M. If he quits in 2017 when his salary drops off then they would see the following buyout cap penalties.
