The Chicago Blackhawks are officially selling, and tanking for Connor Bedard.
The draft lottery is likely the only thing they have a decent chance of winning this year, after another blockbuster trade has been made between the Chicago Blackhawks and the Toronto Maple Leafs:
#Blackhawks receive:
� 2025 1st-round pick (Top 10 protected, moves to a 2026 1st)
� 2026 2nd
� Joey Anderson
� Pavel Gogolev
Maple Leafs receive:
� Jake McCabe (50% salary retained)
� Sam Lafferty
� 2024 5th (conditional)
� 2025 5th (conditional) At first glance, the Blackhawks did not get what they were asking, they got much less. Joey Anderson, acquired by the Blackhawks is a 24-year old who has yet to show any progression of being an NHL caliber forward with 16 points in 76 NHL games on a stacked Maple Leafs roster.
The draft picks here are the real steal, in what the Blackhawks now have a boat load of.
Future Blackhawks picks:
2023: Two firsts, three seconds
2024: Two firsts, three seconds
2025: Two firsts, one second
Plus whatever the Rangers dismissively toss on the ground for Patrick Kane (maybe like one-fifth of a Tanner Jeannot).
