Trades

CHI

Pageau, Jean-Gabriel
2025 2nd round pick (NYI)

Additional Details:

Take advantage of cap space while getting a good 3C for 2 years that you can likely return another early-to-mid round pick in.

NYI

Entwistle, Mackenzie [RFA Rights]

Additional Details:

NYI want to clear up some cap space and get a young bottom-of-roster forward to help infuse some youth into the lineup.

CHI

Ceci, Cody
2026 4th round pick (EDM)

Additional Details:

Take advantage of cap space while getting a playable 3RD for 1 year that you can likely flip at the deadline for another mid round pick.

EDM

EDM's new GM determines that he wants the cap space in order to make a move earlier in the offseason so they lose some value to facilitate another move or two.

CHI

2024 1st round pick (VGK)

Additional Details:

VGS may be interested in adding more picks after draining the cupboards for their playoff run (lol)

VGK

2024 2nd round pick (CHI)
2024 2nd round pick (VAN)
2025 4th round pick (CHI)

Additional Details:

Not sure on exact value or which teams would want to trade down but the point is to trade back into the 1st round using the excess picks

Nice job on this! I like all three additions and the trades seem fair. I'd roll the lines in the forward group a little different but otherwise this is some solid work.

Edmonton isn't going to pay to move Ceci. He's a top-4 RHD on a low-risk contract, he has value in this league. I don't know that Chicago is the right destination due to their RHD situation (although there's talk of them moving Jones), but Ceci does have some value.

1. There is no talk coming out of Chicago of moving Jones.
2. The only RHD situation in Chicago is they need another RHD - Enter Ceci

Friedman mentioned it I think. And Ceci would play ahead of Murphy, so maybe they'd be interested. But my central point stands - Edmonton isn't paying to move him. There are many teams looking for top-4 RHD, they have value.
