Chicago Blackhawks General Manager Stan Bowman has often been described as a wizard or magician behind the scenes, especially when it comes to maneuvering the Blackhawks through their constant salary cap constraints. But what appears to be close to fruition today may be on a whole new level.
According to TSN’s Bob McKenzie, the Blackhawks are close to acquiring Los Angeles Kings defenseman Christian Ehrhoff. The reported return would at least be defenseman Rob Scuderi, who was acquired in the Trevor Daley trade and eventually sent to the AHL, where he remains at this time.
