Chicago Blackhawks Set Their Eyes on Veteran Forwards amidst completion of rebuild
The Blackhawks are nearing the end of their rebuild, with General Manager Kyle Davidson focusing on bringing in free agents from top teams such as the Boston Bruins.
With nearly $35M in cap space and a team ready for fresh talent to support Bedard, Davidson is eyeing experienced players who know how to win.
The Blackhawks have a great chance to pick up strong players, especially from the Bruins, who have been very successful.
Several of these players will be free to sign with any team this summer.
One player Davidson is looking at is Danton Heinen, a forward who is good at both scoring and defending. He could fill a big forward-role if the team dumps Tyler Johnson and Colin Blackwell in free agency.
James van Riemsdyk is yet another player who could help the Blackhawks turn the next page into a winning culture. He can score goals and set up others with his net-front presence, which would be great for a young team.
Matt Grzelcyk from the Bruins is also on the list. He’s a defenseman who plays smart and blocks a lot of shots. He could make the Blackhawks’ defense stronger and teach the younger players.
Bringing in these experienced players from winning teams could really help shape the Blackhawks as they rebuild.
Davidson’s smart planning for free agency might just get the team back to being competitive again.
