2015 Offseason Fantasy Look: Chicago Blackhawks
Doran Libin
2015-06-15
The offseason (in-season?) fantasy hockey outlook for the Chicago Blackhawks
Chicago currently has eight forwards, three defensemen and three goalies under contract for next year with a cap hit of 64 million. With an expected salary cap around 71 million for next season the Blackhawks will have to cut loose some salary this off-season because seven to eight million is not enough to fill seven to ten roster spots. Especially when that needs to include re-signing Brandon Saad, who will get a big contract, Marcus Kruger who takes the worst zone starts, and Johnny Oduya, a pillar of their top four D. Those three alone will probably require a minimum of 11 million (Saad at 5 million, Oduya at 4 million and Kruger at 2 million). This means they probably need to cut about that much in order to fill out their roster.
