Potential Trade Targets (2025 edition)

I'll say it again, I do not see the appeal in Tkachuk at all.

I see the appeal I just hate the cost. Hard pass.

I see the appeal, I am willing to meet the cost, easy yes. This team needs a young(er) star to play on line with Bedsy and take to help this team turn the corner. As long as we keep our 2025 1st I am willing to mortgage picks/prospects to acquire high end talent. Brady Tkachuk is 25 6'4 225 and has back to back 35+ goal seasons and is big/nasty player who is exactly what you want on a line with Bedsy. I dont see any downside to getting him. If you can land Schaefer in this draft or Hagens/Misa then I really can't see any downside to it. I am sick of trying to hope prospects pan out and pray we get lottery lucky (we already did with Bedard) its time to add a huge piece to puzzle.

I see the appeal in his profile as a player but he's overrated as hell and has some behind the scenes shit I don't like.

If I am GM I am targeting younger upside guys who quite haven't lived up to draft slot expectations...specifically Kent Johnson from CBJ and Mason McTavish from Ducks

Anaheim is going the tougher harder player route, so I don't see them moving McTavish. That's why I was saying Zegras

It’s adorable how easy people forget people who play Tkachuks style also drop off the hardest and fastest.

Jamie Benn and Milan Lucic were elite once too until they weren’t

Those guys had miles of playoff time too destroying their bodies. Ottawa is a dumpster fire who hasn't sniffed a playoff run. Both Tkachuk brothers will definitely fall off playing their style but Brady will likely have a longer shelf life than Matthew because of it (although maybe Matthew is figuring that out considering his PIM, hits, etc stats are way down so far compared to every year he's played)

Rumors of Dylan Cozens being moved?

Given the lack of NHL-proven center depth, the Blackhawks should definitely tick the tires. He fits perfectly into the age range they need, too.

That’s a huge financial commitment for a guy who’s really struggled for 18 months at this point and probably isn’t a true center at the nhl level
