NHL Rumors: Chicago Blackhawks and the Arizona Coyotes

Satchel Price of the Chicago Sun-Times: The salary cap ceiling hasn’t been set yet, but it appears that Chicago Blackhawks will have a little more cap flexibility that they’ve been accustomed to having.

GM Stan Bowman knows they have to keep in mind that players like Alex DeBrincat and Nick Schmaltz will need new deals in the near future.

“Knowing that’s on the horizon, you have to be prudent with what you do with your money this summer,” Bowman said.” It might be looking at some shorter-term contracts for some free agents.
