I also love d,at the 12 minute left mark in the 3rd, when Frondell got up on his can,, and then raced up the left wall and returned the favor sending a Slovakian player to the ice with an even harder impetus.
It was nice to see Frondell score the first goal in all of the tourney, and follow it up with that quick pass to assist on Sweden’s second goal.
It is like seeing a much larger Paddie Kane on that right half-board.
I just don’t see any decisions regarding this present personel group causes a playoff game playoff win or (gulp) Cup run.
Nothing that is decided now or in the next months determines that, and I don’t think Kyle gets a pass, but there hasn’t been a biug swing by him towards a NHL addition, but there aint many trades he can make that reshapes the room.
How Kyle and ownership handle additions via free agency and who determines further re-shaping, to me, again, is a question far down the developmental path, and not worth discussion now.
How does any merger moves now affect the next first round pick? It doesn’t matter enough to put him on a spike.
M-hd, Absolutely with ya’ on the Hjalmarsson comp.
Believe it seems like a luxury that Blackhawk team could have a club with three or four guys that they can push out their lips or fingers in an IceHog call-up.
And that not making the post season isn’t world-ending and Management team isn’t going to worry if the select early (due largely by a Bedard re-injury or longer recovery window), this may be their final good chance to win a lottery, and add that “just one more…” keystone piece in early ’26 first round that advertises more second level ‘flare candidates” in that 1st half of the round.It just looks like to me, that the team might see a Hughes-type attacking defenseman from the draft litter of smaller mailmen..
If the did draft early for what ever reason, I see no problem adding at forward.
Every defender they developed around now is going to have to grow more to their games. (BIG #72 is the product of the USA defense, and has a start with seeing hard minutes in the USA dev.team, where he was continually pressed into Pk role, the assignment while USA had their checking line on…Vlasic lumbered and then, got smarter, faster, stronger, so I think he is a cut above the rest in understanding the game and playing it at a high leveltwo ways.
I just don’t think outside moves are out of the question, and cycling through their draft picks at defense, get rotated out, moved on, or replaced with future draft picks at the position.
After Grez’ poor last game, i think a long-term draft replacement, fitting down thw road, and there are certainly lots of promise in the first round that are a tick larger than him, and offensive motivated.
Fine if KK is ready, but has Ethan Del Mastro’s audition over after a few miscues? They seeing growth, there with him? Coaching and responsive evaluation comes with the call-ups, right?
The Sam Rinzel I saw after he signed was clearly big quick and smart enough to hold down an NHL spot. NEVER should have stayed up? The “core” who had been playing in front of him certainly did not looked better, more poised or played better than him.
Did the play finally become grueling over the season and the hard knocks soured him? Sure.
It is laughable watching Arty, as he is feeling like he is a mainstay on the club.
Bedard and the injury is no disconnect organizationally.
More likely this wasn’t one incident that injured Bedard.
We just get what they want released. You want to send the medical images of the injured area to all the other teams too?The franchise will protect their star from any chances of him getting re-injured there. A small shutdown rests the kid (even against his wishes) heals soreness, and things takes the appearance that he plays again against pros when healthy, and able to play HIS type game, with no risky business Bedard’s way, the absent break the insurance he mends first,
while i am at it:
San Francisco whallops the Bears and takes control of their playoff standing by grabbing that first seed. Reality checks non the Bears in the post-season, but the organization does little hibernation, and plunges step by step into the 2026-27 season.
Marchment’s son.
3rd team in 3 seasons is happening?
Wishful thinking that the Blackhawks go out looking for trades to supplant Nazar & Bedsy. Losses as fill-ins. Upgrade
To make a play-off run?
A run comes if Bedard leads them there with the signed rostered players. That’s why they have Lafferty and Toronto and Slaggert and enough well in Rockford to draw from.You really think Kyle from Chicago has to spend for guys they will ave to decide resigning at market, it really doesn’t fit, and an outside signing that could lead to a “couple “ more wins only works against selecting higher in this 2026 draft even without a lottery win.
I saw the Athletics Blackhawk draft surmising and I have placed all my favorites coming to them as everything os still so up in the air:
I can’t see a Donata riff with the Coaches as a point that lefts the organization iof the hook.
Donato and so many of them just are not build to get pounded and sustain pressure, and that isn’t their faults,but they needed a bigger boy dominant player last game and they doesn’t HAVE THEM READY FOR PRIME TIME.I love the current roster of forwards, and will not see their toolboxes as deficits, but they all lack what this tram needed in terms of a guy built to counter act the Hab’s thwart.
Let’s see to it that the current losses contribute to mybe sliding just a little closer to the top spost and they get a skilled physical offensive puck controlling attacker…
No, not at all, L A HAWK, (AND Frenchy.)
Playing them here but not yet having that big possession physical guy, that glues his possessions to his stick and not six goot and under.
Yeah, I like to think winning in Montreal tonight starts with a strong attack zone presence” that couldn’t never really emerged.
It would be lovelier to already be benefitting from past draft picks,
and I wish that there already were useful possibilities precolating in Rockford that they could draw in for games like this one tonight.You know another an off-puck defender type forward, and you could’ve added in that size out there playing a Dach-like in establishes. And you want that guy to have Frondell-like upside, but moreover, that you are showing the Montreal advance-takers don’t just see those same not even Nazar-like enough to be asked to occupy long clock and take those beat’ns, over & over, heck, if we had a few more this would be a perfect time to use them.
It always bothers me when games finally see a team desperate to score, the more they are pushing leading to them to becoming receivers of over-physical
“defense” that has no chance of seeing an arm go up.Habs realize the ‘hawks are fast, but at this juncture they didn’t have a big pushy then likes of who maybe one of their other selections, he bigger boys.
Yeah, I like to think winning in Montreal tonight starts with a “strong attack zone presence” that emerges in the likes of Behn, Bosivert, West, Nestrasil, or Vanacher. A strong attack zone presence means big, quick-stick forwards, grabbing pucks and establish more physicality than our lines could adequately provide for us, given they are no giants who possess the match-up against them tonight. No wonder if Foligno felt it too, so wanting to play.
Well, I, the poor sport doesn’t think Roman Kantserov is the answer to “strong attack zone presence” either.
