Saturday’s episode begins with a discussion on the Chicago Blackhawks final two trades ahead of the 2026 NHL trade deadline. Host Jack Bushman breaks down Nick Foligno getting traded to the Minnesota Wild, where he will join his younger brother, Marcus, while prospect Aidan Thompson was dealt to the New York Rangers for some minor-league support.

The episode concludes with the biggest takeaways from Davidson’s presser on Friday after the deadline had passed. All that and more on Locked On Blackhawks. Part of the Locked On Podcast Network.

QUESTION OF THE DAY — What Grade Would YOU Give GM Kyle Davidson For The 2026 NHL Trade Deadline?
🍻 here’s to 3k subs
Nick will be missed. Good leadership and good Locker room presence. Hoping him and his brother go far into the playoffs
But now it’s time for Bedard and the new core group to lead this beautiful franchise Go Blackhawks
Hoping the Hawks big move this summer is an offer sheet for Jason Robertson. Would gladly give up a first, second, abd third for Robertson.
Don't understand the Rob Thomas thing? Thomas has a NMC. Even if St. Louis would trade him to their rival, he would have to want to play in Chicago.
The guy I'm interested in seeing play with Bedard is Kansterov. He'sputtingup Kaprizov numbers in the KHL. Would love to see him have Kane/Panarin chemistry with Bedard
