MAJOR rumors of a big trade coming any minute.

We have major rumors of a big trade coming down.

According to a report from Chicago hockey blog Barstool Sports, the Chicago Blackhawks are on the verge of announcing they have acquired former first overall pick Nail Yakupov.

We don't have any more details at this time but stay tuned there is certainly more to come.

Hearing that the Blackhawks are making a deal for Yakupov per sources. Not sure who is going back to Edmonton or if money is being retained

Update: TSN's Bob McKenzie has confirmed the Blackhawks and Oilers have had conversations regarding Yakupov but did not confirm the rumors the trade is imminent.

Regarding Yakupov to CHI trade rumors, my understanding as follows: CHI has had talks with EDM on Yak, could still have interest in him...
