It would be a pipedream to sign both of them, but I don't think it's unrealistic to sign one of them to a contract.

I'm sure they would like to play in Chicago. In all of those player surveys Chicago always seems to come up as one of the most sought after places to play, but the fact is money is the biggest priority for these guys and with our current cap situation we can't compete with some of the other teams that are bidding for these two. If the money was even across the board and everyone was offering the same amounts then yeah, I could see us having a good shot at landing one of them but as it stands now I think it might as well be a 0% chance.
