Arizona, but not by a lot. Chicago basically takes on about 3.5M in real salary (Kruger + cheap depth D man since they'll need to replace Osterle) but gain $5,275,000 in offseason cap room for the next 3 years. Arizona cashes the contract insurance cheque from Hossa and get's two useful (better) depth pieces (1 cost controlled past this year) and an extra pick.
I see value on both sides.
