After 10 seasons, 7 playoff runs, and three Stanley Cups, Patrick Sharp‘s time as a Chicago Blackhawk has come to an end.
The Blackhawks traded the marquee forward to Central Division rival Dallas Stars on Friday night, in a four-player deal.
Sharp amassed 239 goals and 509 points with the Blackhawks, since they acquired him from the Philadelphia Flyers at the beginning of the 2005-06 season. However, the 2014-15 season saw Sharp recess heavily, putting up only 16 goals and 43 points in 68 games, while being a minus-8.
Though Sharp was a key part of the Blackhawks’ 2015 Stanley Cup championship run with 15 points in 20 games, the writing was on the wall since mid-March.
