with the 2nd comment overall - the chicago blackhawks are proud to select ivan "daggers" demidov!!
Bijan!
yo eb!!
and his hair was perfect!!
Sounds like you're setting yourself up for disappointment. They're talking Levshunov
thats like being forced to eat brussel sprouts!!
C'mon Demidov , if we pass we will be watching his career closely. If Lev at least is a GOOD 1st line dman even a good 2. Still useful
You can pick up “useful” almost anywhere.
@@dparis2172 IT is a ceiling vrs floor issue. Demindov is perhaps higher ceiling lower floor. Lev is a much higher floor and could be close to the same ceiling. Right handed D is something every team is in need of, and (baring injury) the worst Lev will be is a top 4 D for a decade. I have heard from some scouting reports that Demidov needs work on skating. You can debate merits on the different leagues they played in, most would put the NCAA as a stronger league than the Russian Juniors.
Kyle likes the safe option with levshunov, you don’t pick safe at number 2 you pick the best available.
If they draft Lev then we know all the talk of always going best player available was all BS.
KD needs to add a top 6 player AA and Hall will not be playing a full year and if he believes so he’s a fool they are not dependable. I know we’re not ready to compete for a playoff spot just yet but give Bedard someone decent to play with would hate to see him get loser burnout and not want to resign with the Hawks
They take demigod
Please go with Demidov Kyle or we will regret it, Bedsy deserves better players to play with !!
having a future #1 defenseman is nothing to regret
I will not tolerate Kurashev slander in any forum kekl
@@love_tacoshe’s very very good but he’s no Demidov.
@@mitchellkramer229he’s not a #1 he’s a #4 at best just a good safe pick nothing spectacular
@@robertjames5199 good thing you’re not a scout 💀
I LIKE HOW THE INDIAN FEATHERS NICELY WRAP AROUND Kyle's HEAD
Oh didn't know they came from India! Cool cool.. you learn something everyday!
If I had to guess, just based on Kyle's body language when answering the question about meeting Demidov....they are NOT selecting him. I hope I'm wrong.
Just pick Demidov already!!
I knew we would regret taking Dach over Byram, who was such an easy pick at the time. I feel the same about not taking Demidov. So frustrating
BEST PLAYER AVAIBLE.....Demidov!!
Demidov Kyle 😊
Just take best available player. If the analysis says Lev is that guy, so be it. Just don't get clouded by need.
I'm an Avs fan from across the pond, but if Blackhawks don't take DemiGOD it will be a huge mistake, now that's not to say Lev ain't a great prospect for the franchise option at opposite end of ice but they gotta go Demi
@irishrootsQ it's not a matter of kowing better than management its an opinion from seing clips, Lev looks like a great project but if im gonna be honest although he probably has the highest ceiling in defenseman category he's not blowing others away atm.
Demi on the other hand offers an immediate return and with game time and adapting to the speed of the NHL he's the best option on table by a country mile.
If Chicago Does take Levshunov I "really" hope Anaheim takes Demidov even if he isn't the perfect Verbeek type player. His potential offensive skillset is just too high. Then again, if Chicago does take Demidov Levshunov will be the perfect future first line RD the Ducks very much want.
Not bad options either way
IF they take Levshunov, I'd just kindly ask all Hawks fans to be nice about it. The kid doesn't deserve to be hated on just because y'all liked Demidov better.
Agreed I'm happy with either or it's a privilege to be picking at 2 either the high potential game breaking forward or the best d man out of this draft either or is completely fine
I’d rather take Buim at 2nd. He’s the best defenseman in this draft by far.
Levshunov is not a sure thing. Demitov is injury prone. Iginla is a sure top six and will get better. That flashy stuff don't fly in the NHL. ask McDavid.
Buium Denver Pioneer,. Don't know much.
I think people might take issue with KD and his staff, not Levshunov. He seems like a good kid and I wish him well with whatever team he ends up with. I'm still team Demidov
i hope it ends up being demidov and solberg. do whatever it takes to get solberg lol
Wirlin verlin breakdancer froms Crestwood IL b happys. He b tired of doin da cubbies b done dances. Dis b he breakdancein partner Staleypaul. #2 KISS 🤘🃏🎸🍼🧃🕺🌪️👨❤️💋👨🤡🤣😂
No best player available?
cause he taking lev not dev
@@lucas-qs6rq unfortunately.
@@tomslick2058 i want to throw up too it’s ok
Kyle’s a wimp
The fan base wants Demidov, I personally am scared sh!/less they will take the defenseman.
I’m team Demidov but Levshunov is a stud. This isn’t stan bowman people. Have some faith
Also the guys who threw away Kirby Dach
Lev isn’t even the best d man in the draft
Sounds like Kyle is taking the "safe"" Defensemen......Havent been impressed with Kyle's drafting (Bedard was a gift). Levshunov better be a Makar type player to take at #2 over a special playmaker like Demidov.
Demidov !!!
With great options comes great responsibility.
Kyle will do right for the Hawks
After watching some levshunov highlights I’m fully confident they will pick demidov lev doesn’t even look as good as zeev
Anaheim takes Demidov thanks Chicago…. Now we have another Russian to talk to Mintyukov
Demidov will become a star with his offensive upside, levshunov looks good but he honestly looks like a waste of the second overall pick.
Absolute Failure Kyle! You have three years until your tour as GM is up. Good luck!!
It's Lev if you watch 14:40 he has a tell scratches his lip and then avoids any conversation surrounding Levshunov
he itches his hair right before when the reporter said demidov, your right but he just a tweaker
@@lucas-qs6rq I saw that as well lol
Visionary
taking a defenceman ,its obvious!
Demidov or bust
THROW PATRICK KANE A CONTRACT... a simple 3 years 5 milish. Let him come home and finish off all of Mikitas records and become the best Blackhawk of all time statistically.
what solidifies Kanes legacy more... a 4th cup with some team or knocking off more of Mikitas records. with all due respect to Stan..... no one will come close besides Patrick.
Nah man, let Bedard be that guy... Not Kane 🤮
Kyle is a wimpy shoulder shrugging safe place guy. Probably drives a Tesla. Just think, we could have Gabe Perreault instead of Moore and Demidov instead of Cam Barker 2.0 Levshunov. Lots of 3-2, 2-1 losses the next 5 years.
I agree he is a wimp, you go for the superstar at number 2 because of the skill and look past the risk he’s too scared!
Somethings wrong with Davidson
Kyle’s been a good GM but these answers were a little wishy washy 😅
Just say if you are going to sign free agents or not
There's a reason why KD is the GM and you're not.
You don't telegraph your moves when other teams are trying to sign the same player. This is like rule #1 of managing a sports team, buddy.
Man I hope this guy is throwing some serious smoke screens lol. Drafting a project d man at 2, passing on a difference making forward and even considering that AA and Hall are the answer to the lack of offense… I think even his staunchest supporters would raise an eyebrow at that
Demi
Once again killing it CHGO. Full unedited video - thank you!!!
Levshunov is going to be a very good player. Can't wait.
Lev is going to be Brent Seabrook while Demidov is lookin like Nikita Kucherov, I think ill take Kuch as much as I love Seabs
If they take Levshunov, I’d ask the Blackhawks And fans to be very patient with him he is going to require a lot of coaching to reach his potential.
so 2 years away.
@@rayvolk9662 More then that most likely. For context Duncan Kieth played 2 full years of AHL hockey and then when he came to the NHL. Then he looked pretty rough for his frist two seaons. Defense takes a long time to develop.
If demidov is the pick then expect at least 2 more significant additions (trade or FA) because Demidov will not be here next year. And KD said it’s time to be in the playoff picture
Levshunov will not be here next year either. He is pretty rough and will need some time too get NHL ready.
Hawks need to be a bottom 5 team next year, not sniffing playoffs. They have draft picks but no stud prospects and no pipeline.
They are not even close to being a playoff team I don’t know where you got that from 🤣🤣
@@Chewbachi they’ll definitely be in the Wild card race down to the end of season
brutal haircut
Wow.. that's brutal thinking Taylor hall and Athanasiou are going to be the saviors for offense?? Definitely starting to question KD ability if his only moves are Mikheyev and Lafferty 🤦♂️
Give it some time, we are still 3-4 months away from the season beginning
Nothing else made sense. It’s out of his control. 🤷🏻♂️
Okay guy commenting on social media😂😂
I’m sorry Bedard. Leave first chance you get. Davidson let you down
The draft hasn't even passed yet. Calm down, he's been here 1 year.
@@revanxl5612 3 years
@@Dabearshhdbdb Bedard has been here 1 year. Did you expect Davidson to waste everything and try to be a contender in year 1 with Bedard? That’s a terrible move.
I mean he is the dude that traded Kirby Dach, and now desperately needs exactly what Dach is becoming.
@@revanxl5612 how do u expect Bedard to develop playing next to kurashev and foligno. It’s not realistic
Such a beta.
