On the Chicago Blackhawks …
Scott Powers of The Athletic: The Blackhawks have 15 forwards signed or under control for next season, with five not needing to clear waivers. They may look to add another experienced veteran to the mix this offseason.
Many people believe that the Blackhawks should also be looking for a top-four defenseman.
Goaltender Corey Crawford has been out since December 23rd and his future status is unclear – no timeline on when he’ll be healthy enough to return and will he be the same player he was?
