The Blackhawks have been shopping Debrincat and his return is hoping to jumpstart the rebuild in Chicago.
According to Elliotte Friedman, multiple teams have been trying to persuade the Hawks with offers, but from the rumours, only the Philadelphia Flyers have been willing to go ''all in.'' It's been rumoured that it's going to take a high pick, and either multiple first round picks or top prospects who can play soon, which the Flyers have the 5th overall pick and many young prospects in their system.
The NHL draft takes place tonight at 7pm EST and if the Flyers are serious about their offer, we could see the trade happen before the draft as the Blackhawks would most definitely want that 5th overall pick.
Here is what NHL Insider Frank Seravalli had to say about a possible Debrincat trade:
