NHL Rumors: Blackhawks Star Could Be Traded At Draft

According to Emily Kaplan, there's a good chance that we could see the Blackhawks trade Alex DeBrincat at the NHL Entry Draft.

One of the teams I expect to be active today is the New Jersey Devils. I’ve been told they have a lot of wheels in motion, including potentially acquiring a goalie.

I also believe there is a good chance the Chicago Blackhawks trade Alex DeBrincat today. https://t.co/LrABzQsbuu

DeBrincat has been one of the biggest names in the rumor mill since the Blackhawks announced that they were rebuilding. Several teams like the Senators, Kings, Devils, and Flyers have expressed interest in the star winger. Now, with Kaplan's recent tweet, there's reason to believe that DeBrincat could have a new home before the day is done.

Trade talks can heat up just as quickly as they cool off, so nothing is set in stone. We will have to wait and see what happens with DeBrincat from here.
