Elliotte Friedman has revealed that a massive blockbuster trade is brewing and set to happen soon.

Earlier this week the Chicago Blackhawks and New York Islanders combined for a trade that involved just draft picks. This trade saw the Chicago Blackhawks moving up in the first and second round pick where the Islanders dropped down a couple picks but also got another 2nd round pick from the Blackhawks.

TRADE

To Chicago #Blackhawks
2024 1st RD pick (#18 - NYI)
2024 2nd RD pick (#50 - NYI)

To New York #Isles
2024 1st RD pick (#20 - TBL)
2024 2nd RD pick (#54 - LAK)
2024 2nd RD pick (#61 - VAN)

Elliotte Friedman since then has reported that this trade might be leading up to something huge, and thinks they might try and move up higher in the first round again.

32 Thoughts Podcast: On the Chicago/Islanders pick swap trade from last week Elliotte thinks it's a precursor to another trade. Either someone moving up higher in the draft or to add to a package for a different trade.

The Blackhawks might try and use the picks acquired from the New York Islanders to move up higher in the first-round as it seems there is someone they might really like.

The Blackhawks hold the 2nd overall pick in the 2024 NHL draft.
