The trade deadline isn’t easy for anyone. From the players rumored to be moving, to the general managers who are trying to improve the team’s future, to the teammates watching their friends move, to the players leaving a contender to join a rebuild, it can be a tough time of year. But for some, change can offer opportunity. Monday night’s…
The Chicago Blackhawks said goodbye to several things today, first to Jake McCabe and Sam Lafferty via a trade to the Toronto Maple Leafs. And then they said goodbye to their win streak as they lost to the Anaheim Ducks on Monday night. Tyler Johnson and Andreas Athanasiou both scored in a losing effort that will go a long way…
While we all wait for the Patrick Kane trade to officially go down (which likely can’t happen until Wednesday at the earliest) Kyle Davidson and the Blackhawks are still getting deals done. Davidson traded defenseman Jake McCabe (50% retained), forward Sam Lafferty, a 2024 fifth-round pick (conditional) and a 2025 fifth-round pick (conditional) to Toronto on Monday afternoon for forwards…
The Chicago Blackhawks won for their 5th consecutive game Saturday night, defeating the San Jose Sharks in a shootout, marking their longest winning streak of the season. Plenty of unfamiliar names contributed for the Hawks as Dave Gust and Brett Seney scored their first goals of the season. New names saw ice time as Patrick Kane left the team on…
At one point in time, Patrick Kane and Jonathan Toews were the top trade targets that the Chicago Blackhawks had to offer the other 31 NHL teams.

When we last met here at Blackhawks Beat, I encouraged GM Kyle Davidson and his front office not to fall in love with draft picks. Yes, the Hawks are in year one of a rebuild, and draft capital, especially in the upcoming 2023 draft, is incredibly valuable. That said, this team will need some veteran presence to lead this next…
As the NHL Trade Deadline approaches, here’s a deep dive into what the Chicago Blackhawks have to offer to teams looking to make a splash before March 3rd.
Don’t look now, but the Chicago Blackhawks have won three straight games after a 3-2 win over the Colorado Avalanche. They have done this without their superstar winger Patrick Kane, which makes this streak even more impressive. The Blackhawks used some timely scoring, amazing penalty killing, a solid effort from Petr Mrazek, and a successful goaltender interference call late in…
The Chicago Blackhawks were victorious in their home opener to the Detroit Red Wings Friday night. The Hawks rallied from a 2-0 and 3-1 deficit to make it a 3-3 game at the end of regulation. In overtime, Max Domi cashed in the game-winner for the Hawks for their second win in as many games. Join Jay Zawaski, Greg Boysen,…
It took three games, but the Blackhawks picked up their first win of the season, beating the Sharks 5-2 in San Jose on Saturday night. The Blackhawks got goals from Jonathan Toews, Taylor Raddysh, Jason Dickinson, and Sam Lafferty.
