from Pierre LeBrun of ESPN,

I think the plan remains the same in Chicago: A quiet deadline, other than perhaps adding a depth, experienced defenseman -- like a Scott Hannan-type. I think the Blackhawks have five or six names on their radar as far as depth defensemen and Hannan is one of them.

But in terms of anything bigger than that, if would take a significant injury to a key player, one which would put the Blackhawks in LTI position and suddenly give them cap room to shop for help. Otherwise, I don’t see Chicago doing much else.
