Overview

• Frank Seravalli reports Chicago is actively engaging teams and aiming to move Reichel within the next week before rosters are finalized.
• Expected return is modest, with multiple outlets citing a mid‑ to late‑round draft pick rather than significant assets.
• Vancouver has been linked by Seravalli and David Pagnotta, with local analysis noting Reichel’s low cap hit could address depth during Nils Höglander’s absence.
• Edmonton has checked on price, per Jim Matheson, with additional regional reporting noting GM Stan Bowman drafted Reichel in 2020.
• Reichel carries a $1.2 million cap hit in the final year of his deal and is RFA‑eligible in 2026, positioning him as a low‑risk reclamation option; San Jose has also been mentioned among interested teams.
