A New Blackhawks Forward is Becoming a Hot Trade Candidate
The Chicago Blackhawks made significant moves during the 2023 Trade Deadline as they continued their massive rebuilding process by trading Patrick Kane, Jake McCabe, Sam Lafferty, Max Domi, and Jack Johnson. More changes are expected to happen during the offseason, including the potential trade of Taylor Raddysh.
Raddysh's trade value is currently at its peak as he has developed into an effective middle-six forward, and his $758,333 cap hit until the end of the 2023-24 season is affordable. Additionally, he will remain a restricted free agent once his contract expires, which could translate to an excellent return for the Blackhawks. The successful Tanner Jeannot return during the deadline should increase Chicago's interest in exploring this option with Raddysh.
Raddysh is performing exceptionally well with the Blackhawks this season, scoring 20 goals and tallying 33 points in 68 games. This performance could attract several teams to make a push for the 25-year-old winger during the upcoming offseason.
