Coach Frenchy’s weekly update on the main home page.
Thanks Coach. Good effort against Edmonton. Another moral victory I guess. Hawks have had a lot of those this season. Seven losses this season as of now. Five by one goal. Two in OT, one in a shootout. One game a 2 goal loss with a late empty netter accounting for that difference. Only one blowout loss, the recent game against Winnipeg. Once these guys begin to learn how to win the close games they’ll start accumulating more points. Goes to show you how one or two misplays in a game can make a difference in the outcome.

I met my November deadline of a 2026 NHL MOCK draft.
I will now go back and starting adding the meat to the profiles.
I do not know if I am allowed to link it, which I will do in a reply.
just type in. 2026 NHL Mock Draft Lines projected linesWiz, A while back I started a 2025-2026 Prospects News forum. Link it here so we can easily find all types of present/future prospect news.
A rested Hawk team plays their 2nd consecutive oppenent playing a back-to-back. Hawks started out fast in their game against the Kings and I thought they would cruise to a victory. Goes to show you that you have to play 60 minutes. Yes Dots, I hope they learned their lesson. Ottawa put up 7 last night and are coming into the game with some momentum.
Early in the 2nd period, in a late morning game, Rockford leads Chicago 6-0. Moore 1 G, Lardis 2 G, Savoie 1 G, Joey Anderson 1 G and Cates with a goal.
15 to 20 game mark
After tonight, Hawks begin a western 6 game road trip to kick off games 11-20 of the season. We’ll see how they perform and whether they can maintain their approximate .500 point percentage. Hopefully they can keep their heads above water and use the trip as a bonding experience.
If Bert and Mik are injured, will they make the trip with 11 healthy forwards or bring up someone from Rockford for a week or so?
Reichel
The 4th round 2027 pick the Hawks received back for Reichel is their own which was sent to VAN in the trade for Mikheyev, Lafferty, VAN 2nd round pick. Lafferty moved on and was reacquired. That trade tree can now be looked at as Mik and the 2nd for Reichel.
Mikheyev turned out pretty well for a cap dump. That new trade tree looks pretty good to me also.

And some of the other prospects had good games last night.
Boisvert with an assist in BU’s 3-1 win.
Mustard with a goal and assist in Providence’s win.
Vanacker with a goal (empty netter) and assist in Brantford’s win.
Nestrasil with a goal and an apple in UMass’s loss.
Gajan give up 1 goal in UMD’s 4-1 win. He is now 7-1 on the season with a 1.25 GAA and .938 Save %.Frenchy wrote about Kantserov today.
Also in the Prospects forum (link above) is a link to an article about goalie prospect Adam Gajan and the things he is doing to improve his game and mindset. Good read.
I came across this article regarding Gajan and the things he is doing off ice to improve his game and mindset. So far this season at Minnesota-Duluth he is 5-1 with a .922 save % and 1.51 GAA.
I just added a video over at the Prospects forum about Kantserov. The host does a pretty good job, IMO, analyzing his play. Here’s the link to the forum:
