Blackhawks looking to bring back another former star?

Everything that’s old is new again in Chicago. With the team re-acquiring Brandon Saad just two years after shipping him off to the Columbus Blue Jackets, it looks like general manager Stan Bowman is dipping into the team’s past success in an effort to duplicate the results. Maybe it shouldn’t be surprising then that there are rumors that he’s after another former Hawks star.


Interesting. The 35 year-old’s 5 year, $29.5 million contract expires on July 1st and he’ll likely come much cheaper on the free agent market than his previous salary of $5.9 million. Would it be smart for the Hawks to pick him up for another spin around the sun? What would be a fair price, assuming he doesn’t get more than a year in term?
