holding steady at #2 is actually a huge win... we had a 72.4% chance of falling out of the top 2
yep, we were better poised to pick up 3. 2 is a win
Non hawks fan here and not picking top 10 so no motive . If I’m the hawks I draft a 1st pair dman who can play 22-25 mins a game , those aren’t easy to land . if it’s not , possibly lindstrom . Demidov is good but hawks would have Demidov bedard Moore Nazer . They need to add bigger bodies
Bro i a die hard of the greatest sweater in sports an i like your in put but dont you think at 2 the hawkes should go with the best player on the board an to me that by far is Demidov i get they have the others but just cuz u have nazr i cant pass up on demidov i think hes gonna be a really great player how do you rate him?
@@Horrormovieguy2.9 well then I’d possibly trade a nazer for a power forward or a dman. You don’t want to be the habs of the last 20 years and be full of guys 6 feet and under. Think demidov is good but if levshunov can be a big minutes eater and be a top pair dman especially on the right side which is always on demand he’s someone I’d strongly look at
@@socialmediag5485 honestly not a fan of nazr after the injury if they can trade him i wouod but they just gave him a deal so I doubt it but that miller kid i keep praying he dont get hurt because once he matures hes gonna be a great player because that fude looks like a speed skater out there
They have tons of D prospects--they need to pick Demidov.
You don't look at a draft through the lens of Bedard. You approach the draft to build your team to be a cup champion. The Oilers have approached their team building "around" McDavid and look what that has gotten them so far.
You're not wrong. I still think the biggest need is a forward. Outside of Bedard, do any of our top prospects truly project to be top liners? Nazar and Moore are nice pieces, but realistically 2nd line players. Ivan Demidov would add incredible skill to the line up. Regardless, they will get a great player whichever way they decide to go.
@@SteadyEddyyymost of the top prospects in hawks system are defensemen.
@@blankname6629 I'm aware. None of them project to be elite players. Vlasic is a great shutdown guy, but none of the guys in the pipeline are future #1 D.
I'd take Ivan Demidov, but the Michigan State kid would definitely be a great asset, too.
They’ve been one of the best teams in the west, in the nhl for the past few years… you’re crazy
@@SteadyEddyyy I don’t know if the msu defenseman really projects to that either. He looks a lot like Seth jones did except his shot is not as powerful.
They will still get a top player at 2 let’s not be greedy. This team very soon be on the rise.
Don’t think the #2 pick will be with the Hawks next season. Think Chelios is wrong there. Kane isn’t coming back to Chicago.
Yea whether it’s Levshunov, Demidov, or anyone else, Celebrini is the only player who should be in the NHL next year. This mindset from Bowman is what (potentially) ruined Kirby Dach and Adam Boqvist’s careers.
Bowman passed on Evan Bouchard and Noah Dobson two of the best young defensemen in the league to draft Boqvist. It looked like a poor decision at the time and looks far worse now.
@@WatermelonpasteBrandsagg Nygaard could probably play up next year. I doubt he falls to 20 but it’s possible
Demi is the rite pick by far i hope they take him
If I'm not mistaken, both Levshunov & demidov can't play in the NHL until the 25-26 season, they're both locked in for 24/25 already at NCAA/Russia for one more year.
Hawks still very thin on the good prospect front imo. Only young Hawks that would be no move for me Bedard Nasar Vlasic and Kochinski. Reichel has been somewhat of a disappointment. Demidov makes the most sense at 2.
Doesn't sound like they're taking demidov if Chelios has any say in it hahahaha, 2nd overall for the 5th overall plus a lil something
Not enough people are talking about a big name trade. Everyone's pipe dream is Stamkos/Kane, not going to be disappointed if we somehow snag him/them, but we have so much draft capital that we can dish strategically. Looking at teams that need retooling, the Islanders, the Lightning, the Leafs, etc. I wouldn't be surprised if we bring in a guy(s) like Barzal, Marner, or Cirelli. People might think they are unmovable but anything is possible.
I dont see why making big time trades rite now is the answer this team is not even close to beable to compete they need to get vets around that are smart play the game rite an dont mind playing as a vet in the league knowing connor is half there age an the future of the team,, kids only 19 hakwes are atleast 3/4 years away from competing with these teams an im glad because florida would hurt bedard bad rite now at his age an size they need to continue to move slow but smart
I feel like you always have to grab the next best player in the draft regardless of what you NEED in this current moment.
There seems to be consensus that the next best players are all defenseman. Why take a gamble on a forward that may or may not pan out when you know you can get a good defenseman right now?
The difference between Celebrini and the next 4 is very minuscule. We’re in a great spot at 2 and 20 and 7 in top 72 with loads of cap space
Demidov is the only guy that I can potentially see being better than Celebrini. Even then, Demidov might be better offensively but not all-around.
Not true at all. Mack is far and above better than the rest of this years draft
any chance we can get Montour??
What is going on with Taylor Hall?
Getting Kaner Back is a must now that we got number 2 damn that Bedard Celebrini combo would’ve Put Us in Dynasty Mode 🤦♂️
No it wouldn’t it would put you w two stud centres… and a whole lot of nothing else.
Exactly this team needs to not worry about drafiting top players considering plenty of players drafted in nhl later on are studs but bedard is only 19 id pick up some older bigger players now dhort term kerp bedRd healthy an in about 3 years then stRt spending big on talent let bedard grow rite ow an continue to learn
Chill blues boy@@JSnipes-nb7uy
Get rid of Seth jones any way possible
Yea please do lol and then draft a dman number 2 to replace Jones and let Demidov fall into Habs pocket!
Gotta go after Demidov and either try and buy him out or wait till 25-26 for him to come over and help bedard
I’m genuinely not positive, but idk if you can just buy a guy out of a KHL contract like that. I know there have been cases where contracts get terminated early in the KHL (even Michkov’s contract might get termed this offseason) but I think you go Demidov regardless. People have likened it to the Pens drafting Crosby then Malkin in back-to-back years, like come on lol
Demidovs deal in russia expires in 24-25 not 25-26
@@wadematthews9049 he has one more year meaning he would not be on an nhl roster until 25/26… like I said.
Staying at 2nd OA rather than the far more likely outcome of falling is such a stupid thing to be deflated about.
go get marner. he has fallen out of favor in Toronto. article i read from toronto they would be happy for S Jones for Marner. Pull the trigger yesterday
no brainer
Totally agree with him on drafting to play immediately and help this team. You CAN'T WAIT for the Russian!! Draft the MSU kid or whichever Forward you think can be in Chicago by mid season.
Demidov looks good if he can put some muscle on his frame
Hawks need to get bigger , they need a star defenceman or a big forward . To me the obvious pick is Levshunov (rare RD with size and skills)or Lindstrom. Yeah i know Demidov is going to be great but you cant have a PP with undersized players like Bedard Nazar
Not blackhawks fan but if you can get out from under that Seth Jones contract with Marner 1 more year wouldn't you be crazy not to do it?
Move down to 5 with Montreal for the Winnipeg pick and take the best player available at 5. They all work in a rebuild and parlay the two firsts into the top 10 and again take the best available player in a top heavy draft that is thick on authenticity. Good luck Hawks you can't lose a draft this good. 🎨
The rumour is To Montreal: #2 overall. To Chicago: #5 overall, #27 overall and Owen Beck.
Love ya Chelly but neither Levshunov, Demidov or Lindstrom are in the NHL next season.
If Slaggert and Nazar both got a look this year, you're WAY off😂
@@tomrockhill8634 what year of college was Slaggert in?
How many years did Nazer play in college?
It is very, very rare anyone is drafted and immediately plays in the NHL the following season. There have been several (Slafkovsky for example) #1 overall picks that didn’t even play right away in the season following the draft.
If Jason is WAY off, like left field off, then you are somewhere in the lake.
Bring back Kane!
Loved every second of his tenure but that ship has sailed and that’s absolutely ok, we got our moments and cups. This is the new dynasty loading
Gotta go best player available. I would think Demidov is the best available at 2
No second round picks are making the roster in their first year
I am not impressed with Levshunov or Demidov.
I think the Hawks should TRADE DOWN and grab either Parekh or Buium.
I am concerned with Lindstrom and his back. Back surgery at such a young age.
Id take Demidov
Kane isn’t coming back. He wants to win another cup.
Lindstrom is the best pick for them....
Demidov is under contract in Russia....he is not coming next year....
Mully OBVIOUSLY doesn’t know the NHL rules regarding getting the number 1 draft picks in back to back years/drafts. It’s every 5 years for an NHL club to be in the hunt for another number 1 pick so he’s gonna have to wait just like everyone else is.
No team can win a lottery draw more than twice in a five-year period. The Hawks could have won back-to-back. There’s no rule against “back-to-back.”
There’s no “back to back” rule, would it have been nice? Absolutely because I don’t foresee us being in the top 5 again. It’s twice over a 5 year span
give me Artyom from MSU
Take buium
What’s sad is it won’t make a damn bit of difference. Unless the Blackhawks make some major player changes they might pick up two more wins in 2025 with a #2 draft pick. It such a huge waste when these high picks go to shitty teams. Bedard is so small that unless he bulks up he could suffer a career ending injury in any game.
BLACKHAWKS GM NEED TO WAKE UP! GOALIE MRAZEK SHOULD BE WAIVED ASAP! GET A NEW GOALIE!
Hawks are going to be bad for the next 5 years if I was the Gm I would try to get as many picks as possible for the next 3-4 years to get assets so they can trade to accelerate their rebuild!
