The Blackhawks acquired two backup goalies Patrick Lalime and Sebastien Caron. Later, a future franchise player in left-winger Martin Havlat and center Bryan Smolinski from the Ottawa Senators joined the team. The Blackhawks dealt Mark Bell to the Sharks, while the Ottawa Senators received defenseman Tom Preissing and center Josh Hennessy. The trades were soon followed by another major deal — winger and key Chicago player Kyle Calder, who was traded to the Flyers for defensive center Michal Handzus. That deal caused a stir in Chicago. The Chicago Blackhawks needed a proven center and acquired Handzus.
