With the 2022 NHL Draft fast approaching, many organizations are preparing for this busy and active time in the trade market.
Potential targets are being identified, needs are being named and players are being made available.
One of the very big names we are watching closely is Chicago Blackhawks forward Patrick Kane, whose name has surfaced in trade rumors this year.
Kane, 33, has 92 points (26 goals) in 78 games this season. Another stellar year for him.
His contract expires in 2023 and he earns $10.5 million per year.
WILL HE BE TRADED?
According to what Charlie Roumeliotis reports, Kane's wish will be granted this summer. Basically, he'll be the one to decide. (kind of like Claude Giroux did with the Flyers last March, before moving to Florida)
So, the Blackhawks will trade Patrick Kane if, and only if, the request comes from him. It'll be really intriguing to see how this one turns out, because he can really be a game changer.
