Chicago Sports writer lists his list of untouchable Blackhawks for the deadline
The Chicago Blackhawks are one of the more intriguing teams as we near the March 21st trade deadline. The Hawks began this season with a lot of optimism surrounding the team, after the acquisitions of Marc-Andre Fleury and Seth Jones, there were even those who penciled the Hawks into a Western Conference Final appearance.
That obviously hasn't come to pass.
The Hawks currently sit 14th in the Western Conference and remain 7-points back of the San Jose Sharks for 13th. The playoffs are out of the question, but what isn't is committing to a full tank.
The Blackhawks dealt their 1st round pick this summer to the Columbus Blue Jackets in exchange for Seth Jones, but that pick is lottery win protected. So what does that mean? The Hawks retain their pick if they win a lottery position and end up picking either 1st or 2nd. To do that though the Hawks need to find a way to get worse before they get better.
Well in spirit of Super Bowl Sunday we've decided to share the untouchables list of Ryan Fedrau, a writer for "The Bears Wire". Ryan took to Twitter to share his list of untouchable players, what do you think? Do you agree with this list?
