Johnston lists Dickinson on his trade board, noting he's a "defense-first center who specializes in smothering opponents" ideally suited for a bottom-six role. While not producing much offense, he can anchor a shutdown line and bring value as a penalty killer.
The Blackhawks are motivated to trade Dickinson as he's playing on an expiring contract, and they risk losing him for nothing if they don't move him before the deadline. Multiple teams are reportedly looking for a center like Dickinson, who has role overlap with Maple Leafs' Scott Laughton.
