Nick Foligno recalls the day he got traded by Boston to the Chicago Blackhawks | CHGO Blackhawks
When you find out you’re traded to Chicago like what goes through your mind in those initial moments like what how did you feel when it happened I mean I think you’re a little you’re trying to figure things out right like you know I I was I was
Able to talk to Kyle pretty quickly after that which helped uh me understand the thought process and I was pretty humbled by what he had to say and and why he wanted me to come and amongst other guys and um I think that’s what got me excited right away is that I was
Looking for that and I obviously love my time in Boston was I was excited about you know helping that team if it was going to come down to that or um but once this opportunity came around I was like no this is exactly what I’m actually looking for and I think Boston
Would have been a little complacency on my part um and and what I was wanting to give and what I felt like I could give and so I think that’s been really nice and that that in itself is just the expanded role um the opportunity to help
Build something the way I feel it needs to be done in the NHL and and coming into this group with not really knowing any body and you know trying to trying to make bonds and and and make people understand what it is to be a really
Good team and what it is to be a team in in the NHL and what can that can feel like and um you know I’m I’m lucky to already you know I fell in love with Jason Dickinson and uh you know a lot of these guys right away Seth Jones I’d
Known for a long time was so excited to work with him again Conor Murphy i’ played with and you know the list goes on I’ve been really impressed with Tyler Johnson’s hockey IQ and even the young Fringe guys who are rfas I’m loving like a McKenzie an twistle and radish and um
You know and then seeing the vasic and and these guys that have come in and and what they’ve meant to the organ so it’s excited me for the future here and what we can try and build but it’s still that process and and making guys understand
How hard it is to do and um so yeah not to give you a long minute answer but it’s just I’m excited but also you know appreciative and and and hopeful for what’s to come we all sitting like the mayor

What a great guy he is …. his influence on our young team is priceless. He's kind of like how Hossa showed a young Kane and Toews how to be pros
