Would be a massive get for Kitchener if he reports, and I doubt they make this trade if they didn't think it was likely.

These types of trades happen all the time.

Low risk for Kitchener if he doesn't report. Only a 15th round pick.

100% agreed, it's just a single preseason game, doesn't really mean anything.
Serious question, do players switch leagues in this fashion (not demoted to a lesser league but pretty much a lateral move to a rival league) during the course of a season like this?

I get preseason has less importance than the regular season, but if there was a plan for this trade and him to sign in the OHL why would he even show up to Chicago’s preseason and why would Chicago waste any ice time on him?

It would be unusal. The picks are conditional on him actually coming over, which is almost certainly not happening this year.

1+1 in his first USHL game. Seems to be the real deal. Only problem is that he’s listed at 5’8.75, so he needs to grow to be a high draft pick most likely.
