Portis' old tweets about the Bulls are a riot:

I often wonder if Facebook and Twitter were around when I was in college if I would have been let into medical school.

Saad was looking for 6 years, $6.5 AAV.  It sounds like the Blackhawks had to choose between him and TT.

Teraveinen makes nothing. Not sure what he has to do with it.

TT wouldn't be unrestricted for 8 years, and we don't even know if he's going to produce.

The league really has problems if a 22-yo who is five years from UFA can demand those figures and force his way out.

I heard that. Teams are nuts. 

Would seem to indicate that Sharp/Bickell/Versteeg close to untradeable.

Re: the Saad trade, Marko Dano is supposedly a very talented player and the key to the Hawks not being robbed in the deal. Anisimov is a solid player. Big problems still loom. They need to move Bickell and probably Versteeg. If they can, I'd hold on to Sharp who is due to bounce back from a subpar season. They're also going to need to replace Oduya and missing out on Mike Reilly over the weekend was a killer. All that said, their supposed interest in Barret Jackman is nauseating and would test my allegiance for any duration he would be on the roster.

I'd probably move Sharp as well, if possible.  He'll be 34, and his best days are behind him.
