Hjalmarsson should help to stabilize the ARI defence. I like the move from Chayka at first glance

I have no idea what Arizona is even doing anymore. It's like they're just trading for the sake of trading. No wonder Tippett just said eff it, and peaced out.

really nice pickup for Arizona. Ekman-Larsson, Goligoski, Hjalmarsson, Chychrun is a solid D core to build around.

No salary retained, Coyotes pick up Hjalmarsson's full deal

Hjalmarsson is the better player, but Murphy is younger and Dauphin should be a good young player on the hawks too.
I'd say good for both teams as needs/salary is filled.

Not much cap savings
@drosennhl: Hjalmarsson, 30, has 2 years with a $4.1M cap hit left. Murphy, 24, has 5 years with a $3.85M cap hit. Dauphin, 22, is 1 yr and $745K left.

I don't understand the deal from a Coyote's perspective. It feels like a win now move when they don't have a chance to win. Maybe they are flipping Hjalmarsson.

Wow, what a strange deal. NH is a great d-man. Could work out for both teams, just wasn't expecting the Yotes to make a deal like this.

Hopefully this sets the bar for defensive value this summer.
Would have loved Hammer

So are the Hawks deliberately re-tooling. Or just desperately trying to manage their cap troubles?

Don't forget Luke Schenn!
Chicago must really like Murphy.

Good deal for both teams. Murphy will be a good defender for the Hawks.

Didn't realize Murphy made that much, surprised the Hawks trade Hammer if it's not for the cap savings.
