Happy New Year to you Dots, Coach Frenchy, and all the many participants here on this forum.
For 2026, best wishes for everyone’s good health and welfare. And for the Hawks, a quick and lasting recovery to Bedard and Nazar, and success for our young players as they gain NHL experience.
I know fans want a big splash and i think next year they will get at least 2, Frondell and Kantserov.
With Arty getting more and more comfortable his skating is getting more and more impressive especially his edges.
The amount of non calls today are going to eventually be called for this young group as they get bigger and stronger and faster, the amount of holding, interference, hooking and slashing the opponent is able to play as if they aren’t penalties is impressive.
I’m sure SFG and LA responded to this, hahaha
Funny he has a line in there for the many
Humans crave instant gratification from their entertainment, and hockey is entertainment.
I agree with this so so so much, hopefully the same message is given to our forwards.
I know they aren’t producing a ton on the score sheet but in my eyes Greene, Moore, Lardis are playing solid NHL hockey.
Day 4 was great. Frondell was dominant. He has the best shot here and the 2nd best on the Hawks. The draftable Bjorck looked real good. He older brother dresses and played hard. Finland Czech was a great game. I thought Nestrasil was standing around a bit in 2nd and 3rd. He is stronger than I thought and has good hockey sense. Made it to USA Slovakia for the 2nd. Spellacyplayed great. Fast and strong. Not afraid. Ryder Lee played really well. Best snipe we saw. Can’t believe the Hawks passed on him 3 times. That could look bad in a few years. Every time I saw someone I liked and asked my son who has them it was either a Capitals 2nd rounder or a Sabre. Lots of interesting prospects here. Sad to head home. This is the best hockey experience I’ve had. Best on best saw 10 games in 4 days.
Yeah, Latvian Alberts Smits is a kid any NHL team could groom as their big defender, despite the fact he plays the left side.
We can talk about the Blackhawks left defenseman depth, but I think he fills a differnet type need on the backline.
He is a tough, confindent in his abilities and snarl that he isn’t ever going to back down from playingb to his strengths.
A lot depends upon when Lil Frankie and Bedsy return to impact the draft standings negatively (with hawk wins, lol…), but I think they will looking at most big guys when they select…
