It’s good to bring in a puck-mover veteran Grzelcyk to compete against the contingent of youngster rearguards. Even if you already have him wrapped & posted, to a Cup contending team looking for insurance depth, Murphy may or may not advance into a late April post-season, but his his salary will not hinder any move, and Matty Grzelcyk can sub for him fine, IF and only if they have two Korchinski and even Arty on the fence as to where they can improve, in a larger AHL Icehog roles or the parent club situation where they are on the hot seat, a LOT!.
I don’t think we need to figure out anything more on Spencer Knight except for him finally to get a real dose of NHL games under his belts.
The hop is that he starts to deliver as a better puck saver and that the kids feed off that in games.
Can he help keep the team in games, enabling the young core to play strong infront of his and WIN more?
I think big Sam may be on track towards a rookie of the year nomination.
Will Arty start to see where to position himself in his end? Will he restain himself to seeing the simple over the jump up urges his quick feet have to save the day?
Will enough youngsters take steps that elevate themselve in NHL pro status and stick?
I don’t think any of the starved for success fanbase will be opposed to seeing any and all of Rockford rotating in and out.
We don’t want regualt roles handed out before the second wave of prospects arrives, and then the third, and then the fourth in this years 2026 deep class, where essntially the Balckhawks can start selecting developmental players who will be on track to fill and replace the draft picks that have failed to show NHL muster.
