NHL Trade Rumors: Justin Faulk to the Chicago Blackhawks

According to Chicago Blackhawks insider Scott Powers, the Chicago Blackhawks are looking to add a Top-4 defenceman to their lineup and have contacted the Carolina Hurricanes regarding 3 of their players.

Powers stated that league sources informed him on Friday that the Blackhawks have contacted the Hurricanes regarding several of their defencemen. Carolina has been looking to better their offensive core, and rumors of trading a defencemen have been circulating since 2018.

According to Powers, the players Chicago have specifically asked about their availability are Justin Faulk, Calvin de Hann along with Dougie Hamilton. But Chicago are really interested in Faulk's services, although Carolina's asking price is a little steep.

I think they're talking about adding a top-4, a source told Powers as per Powers. But in fairness, they have probably talked about everyone in the top 7.

Will Faulk be wearing a new uniform next season?
