If new head coach Jeff Blashill does not want to deal with Reichel's inconsistency and immaturity, then the Hawks should deal the young forward.
Trade rumors are swirling that the Chicago Blackhawks are considering trading the inconsistent 23-year-old forward. NHL insider David Pagnotta reported via Jeff Marek's The Sheet that four teams are interested in giving Reichel a fresh start. The Edmonton Journal's Jim Matheson reports that Edmonton Oilers general manager Stan Bowman would love to reunite with the player he drafted in the first round when he was running the Blackhawks.
