Get the latest on the Seth Jones trade rumors as multiple teams express interest in the Blackhawks star defenseman.

The trade market is heating up, and Chicago Blackhawks’ star defenseman, Seth Jones, is at the center of it all. Multiple teams have reportedly reached out to the Blackhawks about the availability of the talented defender according to NHL insider Darren Dreger.

Jones, a towering 6’4″ right-shot defenseman, joined the Blackhawks in 2021 after a trade from the Columbus Blue Jackets. While he’s shown flashes of brilliance, his time in Chicago hasn’t yielded the desired results, with the team struggling to find success in recent seasons.

His best season came in 2018-19 when he recorded 46 points and tallied 9 points in 10 playoff games. However, his production has since dwindled, leading many to believe that a change of scenery could be beneficial for both the player and the team.

Could a Seth Jones Trade Happen? Here’s What We Know

Blackhawks GM Kyle Davidson has been fielding calls from interested teams, and while he hasn’t publicly commented on the situation, it’s clear that there’s a lot of interest in acquiring Jones. However, a trade won’t be easy. Jones is signed through 2029-30 with an average annual value of $9.5 million and has a full no-movement clause, giving him control over his destination.

Potential trade scenarios include the Blackhawks retaining a portion of Jones’ salary or taking back an expensive contract from the acquiring team. A third-team trade could also be an option to spread the cap hit around.

While a trade might not be imminent, it’s clear that Jones’ name is being bandied about in trade circles. His talent and potential make him an attractive asset for any team looking to bolster their blue line.
