The Blackhawks are trying to trade center Artem Anisimov, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet said on the 31 Thoughts: The Podcast.
“I’ll tell you like... they’re trying to trade Anisimov. I’m not wading into to the (Brent) Seabrook thing again,” Friedman said around the 45-minute mark. “I got enough out of that one this year. I just think they’re in a position where they’re going to go for it because there’s a lot of pressure there to go for it.”
Friedman previously reported the Blackhawks asked veteran defenseman Brent Seabrook at some time this season whether he would move his no-movement clause.
