Simon Edvinsson Is Worth Considering For Kyle Davidson, Blackhawks

The Hockey News argues that Chicago Blackhawks general manager Kyle Davidson should target Detroit Red Wings defenseman Simon Edvinsson in a potential trade. This follows a report from Elliotte Friedman indicating that the 23-year-old blueliner prefers to be traded from Detroit amid an ongoing contract stalemate and growing organizational turmoil under interim general manager Shawn Horcoff.

Vinnie Parise notes that Edvinsson could seamlessly fit into Chicago's developing young core alongside defenseman Bowen Byram. Parise suggests an acquisition package for Edvinsson would likely center around draft picks, prospects, and a young NHL player, while benefiting from the fact that both teams play in different conferences.
