The Chicago Blackhawks were expected to be active at the NHL trade deadline, and while they didn’t make as many moves as teams may have predicted, they did acquire some significant pieces as their rebuilding process begins in earnest. Here’s what you need to know.
The draft pick the Blackhawks received is for the 2022 NHL Draft, and could become a first-round pick if Fleury wins at least four games and if the Wild advance to at least the Western Conference Final.
The other big question, of course, is what the Blackhawks plan to do at goaltender in the future. Lankinen and Delia are both set to hit unrestricted free agency at season’s end, and Cale Morris is going to be an arbitration-eligible free agent at the end of this season. In his third season with the Blackhawks, Carpenter has three goals and eight assists in 59 games, and has also tallied 36 penalty minutes.
He did so without ever losing any of his edge, earning him comparisons to Andrew Shaw and the adulation of Blackhawks fans. This also came with an incredibly team-friendly deal, which will pay him $1.5 million each of the next two seasons, and almost certainly incentivized the Lightning to target him via trade.
Taylor Raddysh is an especially intriguing piece, as his style of play would seem to fit a top-six forward. He has already shown some ability in that department, scoring a goal in his second game with the Blackhawks on Sunday against the Winnipeg Jets. He has also had some power play time in Derek King’s system.
