The Chicago Blackhawks are receiving trade calls on a former first-round pick and a young forward in Lukas Reichel.

The Chicago Blackhawks’ rebuilding squad will get quite the test on the opening night of the NHL regular season.

Within five years, Toews captained Chicago to championships in 2013 and '15, the latter when won the Mark Messier NHL Leadership Award and an ESPY as the best player in the NHL. At the time, he was hailed as one of the most respected players in the League, with no foreseeable end to his career.

A trade pitch from Heavy.con has the Chicago Blackhawks acquiring Patrik Laine from the Montreal Canadines in 1-for-1 swap.

The Chicago Blackhawks' 2024-25 season was a year to forget. After a big off-season of spending, the Blackhawks did not take the step forward that they hoped to and finished the campaign with a 25-46-11 record.

Anton Frondell, Blackhawks' third overall pick, will play in Sweden for Djurgarden next season. He will not join Connor Bedard in the NHL immediately.

All indications remain that Kanterov, the Blackhawks’ 2023 second-round pick, will sign an NHL contract after next season.

Now that we are in the middle of July, things have slowed down significantly in the NHL. This happens every summer, as most of this year's free agents have been signed. While this is the case, trades can start to pick up as teams look to finalize their rosters at this point of the off-season.
