King and Hagel on the Hagel trade rumors

Charlie Roumeliotis: Chicago Blackhawks coach Derek King on the Brandon Hagel trade rumors: “He better not be. Hags has got to stay here. I mean, that’s me. You’ve got to do what’s right for the organization and what’s right for the team, but Hagel is a big part of this organization.”

Ben Pope: Chicago Blackhawks forward Brandon Hagel on the trade rumors: “I’ve seen it all. It’s been going on for a little bit. My name has been popping up. It is what it is; it’s a business.”

Ben Pope: Hagel on the reported asking price for him of first-round pick and a prospect: “Seeing what they want for me, you have to take that as a compliment, right? I’m a 6th-rounder who was brought in as a 20-year-old, just a kid who came and played, and they want that? I’ll take that any day.”
