I think Chicago would. They have a lot of intriguing young players at all positions except for goal. Having another top 3 1st rounder probably isn't something they need as much at this point to take the next step and with rumours that even Bedard is getting impatient and being advised not to sign a long term extension at this point, I could see them getting antsy.
I know they just acquired Spencer Knight last year, but he hasn't exactly shown that he can be the guy. I think the bigger part of that deal was unloading Jones and getting a 2026 1st rounder back. Knight was probably just a flyer and a hope.
