On Monday, the Carolina Hurricanes sent defensemen Calvin De Haan and forward Aleksi Saarela to the Chicago Blackhawks for Goaltender Anton Forsberg and defensemen Gustav Forsling. The Hurricanes need a goalie on the roster and are trying to clear some cap room entering free agency.
If you are thinking “man, these two teams trade a lot” you are correct. If fact, these two franchises have now swapped players or picks a total of 11 times, which is the second most trades with one team for the Hurricanes (they have made 13 deals with the Philadelphia Flyers).
