Vegas definitely doesnt have a need to do that trade, and its unlikely Dach or Toews come back by the playoffs. It was 4-5 months before returning to any hockey activities with his hand/wrist after surgery, so we are talking late april early may before he starts to train again, and Toews hasnt even been around the team. Itll be the current team or bust

So you say playoff push and then successfully trade away arguably the Blackhawks' 5th best forward this season thus far. I'd say Kane, DeBrincat, Suter, Kurashev, Janmark have been our best guys up front so far. Janmark, in my opinion, should be a permanent fixture in Chicago. He can score. He can skate. He can defend. He can get in front of the net on the PP Shawzy Style (in case you hadn't noticed we now have Shaw and Janmark making a mess in front of the net at all times on the PP) and he can kill penalties like a beast. By far best addition from outside the org so far this season. Suter is good but Janmark has impressed me more. I was expecting Suter to be good, I was expecting maybe a 3rd line 30 points at best guy from janmark but he's a beast. However, to Suter's credit, holy crap that OT Winner last night was nuts.
