The Chicago Blackhawks are receiving trade calls on a former first-round pick and a young forward in Lukas Reichel.

Within five years, Toews captained Chicago to championships in 2013 and '15, the latter when won the Mark Messier NHL Leadership Award and an ESPY as the best player in the NHL. At the time, he was hailed as one of the most respected players in the League, with no foreseeable end to his career.

Chicago Blackhawks general manager Kyle Davidson spoke about how close his growing young core is to breaking through in the NHL.

We take a look at three ideal trade candidates on the current Blackhawks roster that GM Kyle Davidson could consider parting ways with.

The Blackhawks are continuing to rebuild to return to their glory years. They won the Stanley Cup in 2010, 2013 and 2015, with center Jonathan Toews and forward Patrick Kane as the centerpieces of the franchise.
