Blackhawks send Nick Foligno to play with brother on Wild
The Minnesota Wild have traded for Chicago Blackhawks captain Nick Foligno, giving him an opportunity to play with his brother, Marcus.
The deal is for future considerations, sources said, and is viewed as Chicago doing its captain a solid so he has a chance to chase a Stanley Cup. There is no retention on the deal, as the Blackhawks have already used their three retention spots.
Nick Foligno, 38, is on the final year of a two-year pact he signed with the Blackhawks that pays him $4.5 million annually — which brings the Wild close to the salary cap and possibly done doing business after acquiring forward Bobby Brink earlier Friday and Michael McCarron earlier in the week.

“Seventeen goes to the guy who’s played the longest in a Wild jersey,” Marcus Foligno, the ninth-year Minnesota Wild veteran, said, with a bunch of ha-ha-ha-ha-has in a group text with Nick and The Athletic on Friday. “Plus, Nick’s too cheap to offer a good deal for my number.”
With a couple of laughing emojis, Nick responded: “Marcus wanted a Rolex for 17, but he forgot he owes me a Rolls Royce for all the things I’ve done and paid for for him in my life. So I said I’ll take ‘71’ instead.”
