The Blackhawks received forwards Artem Anisimov, Marko Dano,
Jeremy Morin, Corey Tropp and a fourth-round pick in the 2016
NHL Draft. Saad posted career bests in goals (23), assists (29)
and points (52) last season as he finished as the team's third
leading goal-scorer and fourth in points.
The 22-year-old's contract was set to expire this week.
The Anaheim Ducks were also involved in a trade on Tuesday when
they acquired veteran defenseman Kevin Bieksa from the Vancouver
Canucks. Anaheim sent their second-round pick in the 2016 NHL
Draft to Vancouver in exchange for the 34-year-old Bieksa, who
played 597 games with the Canucks and acquired 59 goals, 185
points and 879 penalty minutes.
