Hawks decline both of those trades. They won't have much if any interest in Robertson. Definitely not for a 3rd. And the Hawks aren't paying all that to give the Leafs almost $7m in cap space. Rather hang on to Dicky and the picks.

after July 1st, your team's owners would say otherwise.

Hawks still aren't giving up Dicky or a 2nd, let alone both, for JT after his bonus is paid. It's still an $11m cap hit. Nobody is paying anything significant to take that on. Try a different team if you think otherwise.

The number of teams that can actually afford to take on that Tavares contract is so small that toronto would not get anything close to fair value for his production.
