The Chicago Blackhawks made a pair of high profile moves at the trade deadline, but it's the move they made that went under the radar that has actually paid dividends for them.
When Patrick Kane went down with his broken collarbone in the last couple months of the season, the Chicago Blackhawks found themselves with an opportunity to add to their roster at the trade deadline in a way that seemed impossible, unless Stan Bowman was prepared to get extremely creative in order to add a veteran or two.
That silver lining was a rare positive in relation to the Kane injury, as the Hawks saw their offense fizzle out and they struggled mightily down the stretch without their superstar forward.
