Surprised so many decent free agents are signing in Chicago. Surely Blackwell, Domi and Athanasiou had more than one option?

Also surprised Chicago wants decent players during their tank.

Blackhawks can flip them for draft picks as well later on

Lower end UFA’s don’t want to win, they want ice time.

And the Hawks can flip them at the trade deadline.

It’s how you use cap space in a rebuild.
