Chicago Blackhawks

After losing in the first round to the Carolina Hurricanes, it’s clear that the Boston Bruins need to make some changes to their roster. When looking at potential trading partners around the league, the San Jose Sharks stand out significantly. In my opinion, there are three players on their current roster who the Bruins should consider targeting. Let’s now dive into why this is the case.

Some damning criticism from one of the most respected former NHL stars.

Early last week, when we first learned the New York Islanders were parting ways with head coach Barry Trotz, I was pretty clear in my stance: even if the likelihood of getting him to join a rebuilding Blackhawks team was slim, the Blackhawks should at least reach out to express interest.

For the last three seasons, the NHL's upper limit of the salary cap has stayed at $81.5 million because of the financial ramifications stemming from the COVID-19 pandemic. Next season, the ceiling will increase for the first time since 2019 but only by $1 million. The lack of salary-cap growth...

Hello Chicago Blackhawks fans and welcome to the offseason! The second round of the NHL playoffs is underway, and so far the postseason has NOT disappointed. Sure, it would be fun if the Blackhawks were still playing, but at least our anxiety levels are getting a break. I know, we’d all probably love to have some of that pacing and nail-biting and screaming at the TV right now; but such is life.

The Chicago Blackhawks are a team that could go through some major changes over the summer. Once the Stanley Cup is awarded, all bets are off. If they are going to rebuild the right way, there are going to be some tough decisions made by the team. It is hard...

This is a terribly quiet time of year for teams that aren’t still playing in the playoffs, and in the case of the Blackhawks we’re looking forward — far forward. The NHL Draft is in early July and Chicago doesn’t own a pick until the second round (for now).

What did we learn on Thursday night? The Avalanche aren’t going to sweep their way through the Western Conference and the Florida Panthers are in a world of trouble. But there were a few other noteworthy items from the hockey world yesterday. So let’s dig in. Here’s tonight’s...

Why Hawks need to be 'very smart' about utilizing cap space originally appeared on NBC Sports Chicago. For the last three seasons, the NHL's upper limit of the salary cap has stayed at $81.5 million because of the financial ramifications stemming from the COVID-19 pandemic. Next season, the ceiling will increase for the first time since 2019 but only by $1 million.

Since the Chicago Blackhawks were unsuccessful in the draft lottery last week, which meant that their 2022 first-round pick now belongs to the Columbus Blue Jackets due to the Seth Jones trade, there’s been a theme popping up in circles of discussion surrounding the team at 1901 W. Madison Street.

The Vancouver Canucks are a team to watch this summer. It has been established that they are looking to clear up some cap space. The Boston Bruins should take advantage of this, as the Canucks have multiple players who would be excellent additions to their lineup. Let’s now take a gander at three of them who stand out the most.

Soon after signing a highly touted defensive prospect, the Flyers have kept a valuable depth piece. Nick Seeler, a 28 year old blue liner, will be staying in Philadelphia for the next two years, signing a deal that will earn him $775,000. Seeler was signed this past offseason. He was...

The Chicago Blackhawks are currently looking for a new head coach. Derek King replaced Jeremy Colliton as the interim head coach in 2021-22 and did okay. However, he didn’t do anything that makes you know for a fact that he is the guy going forward on a full-time basis.

We’ve spoken a lot about the decisions general manager Kyle Davidson will have to make about the Blackhawks’ UFAs and RFAs on his payroll this summer. There are some players who are equally intriguing and important moving forward for the franchise, and how Davidson deals with their free agencies will be an indication of how he views their role in the rebuild.

The 2022 NHL Draft is a little less than two months away, and the Blackhawks currently possess eight picks. But none of those are in the first round after the old regime gave it up to Columbus as part of the Seth Jones trade. The Blackhawks had an opportunity to...
