Justin Abdelkader, our 227th ranked left wing, is best suited to be a depth backup. We project he will end up with the Chicago Blackhawks because they could use a player of this quality to play left wing. The Blackhawks currently have only 0 healthy left wings, and none are rated better than Abdelkader.
The Blackhawks currently have no left wings under contract beyond the 2027 season, so Abdelkader could see a potential long term contract with the team.
