The Chicago Blackhawks have traded Kyle Baun to the Montreal Canadians for Andreas Martinsen with Baun reporting to the AHL affiliate of the Canadians.
Baun signed with the Blackhawks as a college free agent out of Colgate, and after an impressive junior year, the Blackhawks won Baun services from several other teams including the Red Wings. In 2014-15, Baun had a three game audition with the team, and he played pretty well that in the following season he was penciled in on the third line with the Hawks.
His leash in 2015-16 was very short, he appeared in 2 games before being sent to Rockford, and unfortunately he sustained an arm injury and missed out of the season.
