The Blackhawks’ rebuild should be nearing its end. In many ways, the time spent building through the draft mirrors the construction of their dynasty roster. Trading away established players is not a new concept. Using this as the basis of a rebuild certainly is.

If you take Erik Johnson at his word, either Auston Matthews or Connor McDavid will be joining the Minnesota Wild in the next three years. “I think Bill Guerin finds a way to get a Matthews or McDavid in Minnesota,” Johnson told the Pat McAfee Show, “to push them over the edge.” Perhap...

The Philadelphia Flyers and Anaheim Ducks have connected on a few trades in recent years. First, it was the disgruntled Cutter Gauthier being dealt to Anaheim for Jamie Drysdale and a second-round pick. Then it was the Ducks’ turn to trade away a player needing a change of scenery, sending Trevor Zegras to the Flyers for Ryan Poehling, a second-round pick, and a fourth-round pick. Both teams are probably pretty happy with how those deals have turned out so far. Drysdale and Zegras ha...
