I suspect that Chicago will get Seabrook locked down to an extension, and than we'll see the roster make over.
Sharp, yeah I can see them trading him, no problem. They have Panarin signed for next year as another forward who may be able to step into the NHL and be productive.
Bickell, another veteran guy that a Phoenix like team can give them something for.
I think Mike Reilly is still very much an option for them on defence who could play a third pair role.
So really they may have some difficulty for a season or two. But what they did before was identify which players were serious core players and kept those guys, so I suspect that they'll be able to do it again. Take Brent Seabrook out of their core...who replaces him?
