DONATO TURNS INTO TRADE CHIP FOR BLACKHAWKS: Ryan Donato held four pucks in his right hand — one for each of his career-high four points — and posed for a picture to commemorate the occasion.

It was another memorable moment in a career-best season for Donato. And quite possibly, one of his last with the Chicago Blackhawks.

With Chicago going nowhere at its break for the 4 Nations Face-Off, Donato has become an intriguing trade chip ahead of the March 7 deadline. The 28-year-old forward has a career-high 19 goals and 37 points in 53 games.

Donato is eligible for unrestricted free agency after this season. He signed a $4 million, two-year contract with the Blackhawks in 2023.
