It all basically comes down to how many slots are open on the bottom 2 lines.
If, as another poster mentioned in the Stalberg thread, that Smith, Krueger, and Morin are ready, there are slots to accomodate them, it then comes down to money and a potentially significantly reduced amount of ice time. Is that something Kopecky would want? Personally I think he will probably sign elsewhere as someone out there will offer him more money than the Hawks will be willing to - based upon my take on the Hawks' depth chart.
However, that isn't to say that imo Kopecky is a valuable depth guy - that being said, I don't think anyone was saying he is another coming of Wayne Gretzky or Mike Bossy ... although he does appear to be smart enough to be able to feed the puck to Hossa, at least, when they've been linemates (you'd be surprised how many forwards can't work that one out).
However since this is a personal question - in my lineup building exercise - he doesn't have a spot, unless he wants to sign for cheap, which I doubt, his version of signing for cheap would match mine.
