Ducks and Blackhawks hook up on a trade
That's three trades today for the Blackhawks

Chicago Blackhawks' GM Kyle Davidson has been one busy man today!
The Blackhawks have made three transactions today, albeit none of them near as involved as his blockbuster Patrick Kane deal with the New York Ranger.
Up first, the Blackhawks received forward Ander Bjork from the Buffalo Sabres in exchange for... literally nothing.
Sabres GM Kevyn Adams promised Bjork that he'd try to find a new destination for him after it was clear that Bjork wasn't factoring into the Sabres' long-term plans. The 26 year old forward will now get a fresh start in Chicago.
There are also reports that the Blackhawks have traded forward Max Domi to the Dallas Stars, but those reports are unconfirmed thus far.
More from NHL insider Frank Seravalli:
The 28 year old Domi has had a renaissance season with the Blackhawks this year after a few down campaigns where he bounced around the NHL a bit. He has an impressive 18 goals and 49 points in 60 games for the Blackhawks this season, his best point totals since 2019 when he was a member of the Montreal Canadiens. Stay tuned for full details of this deal once they're made available.
Finally, GM Davidson and the Blackhawks shipped out forward Dylan Sikura to the Anaheim Ducks in exchange for minor-league forward Max Golod.
To be honest, this looks to be merely a swap of minor league forwards, especially when you consider that the two NHL franchise's AHL affiliate teams pulled off a minor-league blockbuster earlier today as well:
The IceHogs are making a push for a spot in the AHL's Calder Cup Playoffs and their acquisitions of Grimaldi and Golod should help them in that regard.
