The Chicago Blackhawks are officially in full rebuild mode, with the most significant pieces remaining being Jonathan Toews, Patrick Kane and Seth Jones.
The 2022 first-round pick, David Jiricek, is a solid defensive prospect with tremendous upside, and Cole Sillinger and Adam Boqvist are already proven NHL players.
According to reports by The Athletic's Scott Powers, Chicago is now trying to trade Jones, but there's one thing scaring teams away.
For the Blackhawks to move Jones, GM Kyle Davidson may have to look to package him with a prospect or, at the very least, retain his salary.
It was reported that at the NHL Draft, the Blackhawks offered the defenseman to the Ottawa Senators for next to nothing, and GM Pierre Dorion ultimately declined.
