Emily Kaplan: The Blackhawks now have some salary cap space, but it’s usually a quiet period for the next month or so. “Now most of the major moves have been made,” GM Stan Bowman said today. “Right now, nothing is really close to happening”
Mark Lazerus of the Chicago Sun-Times: The Blackhawks didn’t add a lot during free agency and haven’t been able to make a big splash so far.
GM Stan Bowman did move out Marian Hossa’s contract. Bowman did say that a late-summer/early fall trade is still possible, but they may not able to immediately take advantage of the extra salary cap space they have after the Hossa trade.
