General Manager Kyle Davidson continues to work his offseason to improve the Blackhawks lineup and a potential trade may be on the horizon with the New York Rangers and Kappo Kakko.

It’s been well established that New York Rangers general manager Chris Drury has been attempting to trade the beleaguered forward as he has not settled well into the Rangers lineup and has been a great disappointment in terms of point production and overall play.

Many feel that a change of scenery would do the former second overall choice in 2019. Kaapo Kakko signed a one year extension with the Rangers that is worth $2.4 million. This was his qualifying offer and gives other teams cost certainty at least for one season if they were to trade for him.

If Davidson feels that he could restore his career by putting Coco alongside players like Connor bedard, Teuvo Teravainen and grant him more ice time it may cause his career to reignite and become the player that he was supposed to be.

This season saw a dramatic drop in his point production as his best season was 40 points in 82 games. This past season he only had 19 points in 61 games which has warranted these conversations.

The Blackhawks have plenty of draft capital along with players who could be offered to the Rangers in order to create this transaction. Only time will tell if this trade happens or it won’t.
