Blackhawks Reportedly Seek Trade for Forward Lukas Reichel Before 2025-26 Season
The Chicago Blackhawks are considering moving forward without Lukas Reichel as they finalize their roster for the 2025-26 NHL season. Despite being a former first-round pick known for his elite speed, Reichel has struggled to consistently perform at the NHL level, leading the team to actively shop him for a trade before the season begins. NHL insider Frank Seravalli and reports from various sources indicate the Blackhawks expect only a mid to late-round draft pick in return. Potential trade destinations include the Toronto Maple Leafs and New York Rangers, both of whom could benefit from Reichel's depth scoring abilities. While Reichel has shown promise in the AHL and has career highs in goals and assists, the Blackhawks are uncertain if he fits their long-term plans, especially with young players competing for roster spots. With a year left on his contract, a change of scenery could revitalize his development, but the Blackhawks are prepared for any outcome, including waivers or reassignment to the AHL.
