This & the Montador signing are the only ones I like this offseason..
Yes!!! :clap::bow::beerbang::buttrock::gtfo:
The White Sox, Cubs, and Bears ought to take notice. THIS IS HOW A PROFESSIONAL ORGANIZATION IS RUN!! Kinda weird to be saying that about my Hawks after they were so poorly run for so many years but, whoomp!! there it is!!

For real? Not re-upping Crawford? Not signing Brunette? Not the attempts to have a true energy line?
I would have preferred to bring back Campoli for a year and not put so much responsibility on Leddy so quick, but that's the only move I dislike.
I think it's a little knee-jerk for the many who are thinking so much responsibility is being placed on Leddy assuming he'll be directly inserted into Soupy's old spot. Maybe I'm wrong; we'll see.
I'm sure he won't get all of Campbell's even strength minutes, Montador will probably take most of those. But Leddy will likely get his PP minutes, and be expected to do more offensively in even strength since he is the most offensively talented bottom-4 D man on the team now.
The minute Leddy gets undressed, people will be calling for Soupy.
He should get/earn those PP minutes. I see Sharp/Keith and Seabs/Leddy at the points for the two PP units. As for even strength, I wonder if we'll continue to see him being paired with Keith until crunchtime. Ought to be a good learning experience for him.
The kid sure is a slick skater. The game was still a little fast for him and we'll see he'll gain more poise as his comfort level increases.
