Thanks, Frenchy. Man, would be nice if Dach grabs this chance by the throat. When the Hawks get a surprise in the system that outplays his draft status and predictions, I hope it's a power forward, a Kniess type. Don't think Dach is a Kniess but he don't have to be to be effective, especially with Bedard whizzing around and hopefully getting 4 SOG. ... North-South, work the walls and make something/chaos in the crease. What's Blashill saying. 45-50 starts for Knight this yr or does he want him fresh for Saturday at home v MTL? Korpisalo is a bottom tier borderline starter last I saw him. Always good to miss Swayman. Hawks have a chance to get to Korpi a bit. ...... Interested to see Rinzel after his first bad NHL game. Bet he comes back pretty good. Bedard has the look, man. The most surety in his game I've seen as a pro. Add what his offseason training/skating has done for him and I'm more excited to see him play since his first 15 NHL games.

Thanks, Frenchy. Man, would be nice if Dach grabs this chance by the throat. When the Hawks get a surprise in the system that outplays his draft status and predictions, I hope it’s a power forward, a Kniess type. Don’t think Dach is a Kniess but he don’t have to be to be effective, especially with Bedard whizzing around and hopefully getting 4 SOG. … North-South, work the walls and make something/chaos in the crease.

What’s Blashill saying. 45-50 starts for Knight this yr or does he want him fresh for Saturday at home v MTL?

Korpisalo is a bottom tier borderline starter last I saw him. Always good to miss Swayman. Hawks have a chance to get to Korpi a bit. …… Interested to see Rinzel after his first bad NHL game. Bet he comes back pretty good.

Bedard has the look, man. The most surety in his game I’ve seen as a pro. Add what his offseason training/skating has done for him and I’m more excited to see him play since his first 15 NHL games.
