The Chicago Blackhawks are likely to be sellers around the NHL Trade Deadline in March. Veteran winger Taylor Hall is among the trade candidates the Blackhawks could move before the 3 PM EST deadline.

The Blackhawks acquired Hall and now-captain Nick Foligno from the Bruins on June 26, 2023, to be a mentor and potential linemate for Connor Bedard, Chicago's No. 1 pick in the 2023 NHL Draft.

Taylor Hall’s actual black eye, courtesy of Calgary Flames forward Martin Pospisil, doesn’t hurt so much. “(Feels) good. It’s fine,” said Hall, whose right eyelid looked more red than black and had seven stitches in it.

Among those, the two highest valued rental players will likely be Taylor Hall and Ryan Donato. Both players are expected to fetch around a third round pick at the trade deadline, which isn't exactly encouraging considering the Blackhawks are a clear seller,

The Chicago Blackhawks are one of the few teams concretely out of the playoff race as the NHL Trade Deadline nears, meaning every contending team will be calling and trying to pluck their best players and assets.
