Yup, good talks thanks Casper

Pretty fair

Good to get out of Hossa while he still has some value.

josh loading up again!

[Sensfanjosh]

I figure worst case is Hossa gets a ton of shots, and ~30 points and ~100shtoi for a year or two then retires....I don't get stuck with his cap hit if he retires like the real life Hawks.

I was thinking the same thing...don't see a huge drop off but his decline is underway. He'll help Josh's squad but smart for Casper to do this now.

[Lee]

Yeah, he is still a contributing assets, only in the short term. Not a freak of nature like Jagr.

Yup, it was a good deal for both of us with where our teams are at. He gets a nice bounce back candidate for a reasonable price and I get a couple future pieces I like for a player that isn't of much use to me at this point.

I'd say Hossa can play until he is 40, but if you look at the way his contract is configured I wouldn't be shocked if he doesn't finish his contract either.
