The Chicago Blackhawks and Washington Capitals "have had dialogue" on a potential trade centering on Blackhawks forward Patrick Sharp, according to a report by Chris Kuc of the Chicago Tribune:

It's unclear how far trade talks have actually progressed or what kind of return Chicago GM Stan Bowman is seeking for such a deal. However, Sharp has been the subject of trade rumors for quite some time now, so it's plausible that things could heat up in a big way prior to Monday's NHL trade deadline.
The Washington Capitals have plenty of young pieces to choose from if Bowman decides to go that route in a Sharp trade, but there's also the slight possibility that the Blackhawks GM could angle for a significant return in the form of Caps defenseman Mike Green.
Stay tuned.
