Is Chicago About to Pull the Trigger on a Trade?
Lukas Reichel first popped up on Stan Bowman’s radar when he was just a teenager, playing for the Berlin polar bears in the DEL, the top league in Germany. Now, most 17-year-olds are still trying to crack junior teams. Reichel? He was holding his own against grown men.
In 2019–20, he put up 12 goals and 24 points in 42 games. The following year, he didn’t slow down 10 goals, 27 points in 38 games, and another five points in nine playoff games. That kind of consistency at his age had scouts convinced he was legit. And sure enough, the Blackhawks made their move.

Is Lukas Reichel’s time in Chicago coming to an end??
🧊 Ice Bears 🐻
Reichel needs a fresh start somewhere else. I don't see where he fits on the team
Davidson doesn't want anything owned by Bowman. He is one of the last Bowman era guys.
I think you have to give him half the season. If he responds to Blashill then he should be resigned. If not, then try to move him after the Olympics.
It would probably be good for him get a fresh start but I just know he is gonna leave and become a 20 goal 50-60 point guy somewhere
Might as well see what they get from him off the ice, they aren't getting much from him on the ice. Too bad.
I’m hoping he does well. I do remember the time where he seemed to be a big part of the Hawks future and letting go of that is tough. There is a lot of competition for his roster spot though.
There’s no urgency to move Reichel he’s on a $1.5 million salary for the rest of the season. He’s a different but a better player then Slaggert or Dach, his main competition. Until Fondell or Broisvert show up as competition next training camp 2026 Chicago should keep Reichel. IMO he is this era, Michael Frolik. Reichel former first round draft choice and it’s not worth trading him for anything less at this point in time. GM Kyle Davidson has proven he doesn’t do anything unless it makes sense. Trading Reichel does not make sense at this point in time.
As soon as Michael Frolik left the Hawks at 25 years old. He became a 40-45 point producer for three or four years in a row Winnipeg and Calgary. There is zero risk on keeping Reichel for this season. At minimum until the trade deadline and then possibly trade him when he’s worth more. I believe Lucas Reichel is very similar to Frolik. He can very easily play on the fourth line for the rest of this year at a minimum..
Blackhawks should go get Luke evangalista from Nashville
Give him another chance he’s still young
i think we see him take a leap this year, he is getting to a point where he is confident again. even kyle davidson said it "its a prove it year"
you give a decent summary of his stats, but you don't give anything related to the question you pose in the title of the video.
