Panthers Trade With Blackhawks

     The Florida Panthers have made a five-player deal with the Chicago Blackhawks. The Panthers traded Brett Connolly, Riley Stillman, Henrik Borgstrom and a 2021 seventh-round pick to the Blackhawks for Lucas Wallmark and Lucas Carlsson. 
     It is a return for Wallmark to Florida. He was acquired by the Cats last season along with three players from the Carolina Hurricanes for Vincent Trocheck. Wallmark had two points in seven games with the Panthers last season and had only three points in 16 contests with the Hawks this season. Carlsson has played the last two seasons with Chicago and compiled two assists in 18 games. 
     Connolly signed as a free agent two seasons ago with Florida. He compiled 19 goals and 14 assists in 69 games with the Panthers last season and dropped to four points in 21 games this year. 
     Stillman was drafted by the Panthers in 2016. He participated in 43 contests over the last three seasons and had five points. Borgstrom played in 58 games from 2017 to 2020 with the Cats as he chalked up nine goals and 10 assists. He was selected 23rd overall in the 2016 NHL Draft.
