You don’t trade jones until you have the RHD lines covered and ready. Looking promising now though with Rinzel, Levs and Crevier. As for the rebuild starting march 18 2022; we’re barely 35 months into it, We’ll still have to be in the conversation for the McKenna draft. But this year’s looking good draft wise. After one more draft high next year, we’ll bet set for years of domination. The patience is worth the Reward even though it’s hard to swallow on a daily basis. Especially as you guys beat it daily, so thanks for your work CHGO 🤟🏻Greetings from Belgium
we need a center like misa or hagens plus martone really didnt look good at the wjc, hagens looks like the perfect guy to play with bedard hes a high IQ play maker that reminds me of marner with his play making ability, i think it would be a mistake to pass up on him.
If they do pick up Schaefer they need to move one of our elite d prospects for an elite f prospect, Bedard needs more talent around him, i wish they went for a forward like demidov last year instead of levshunov because then picking a potential superstar defensemen like Schaefer would be much easier.
I don't know about great. Think all of them will be quality players. If you're talking great like first ballot Hall of famer I don't think that is realistic.
I like Hagens but he is undersized and with Bedard the Hawks already have undersized players. I have no heard that Misa is weak defensively. I have heard the opposite and seen it in video reviews.
@@bigdaddycoolone The same reason people called players "Taser" "kaner" "Duncs" Seabs" Hoss" "Crow" "hammer" during the dynasty. Those are the nick names the players refer to each other as when they talk to media. What is the big deal. lol
@Tj-du4mj Demidov 7goals 4 assists in his last 6 games playing against grown men in khl....Hawks missed out on a good player there. All us Hawks fans wanted and expected them to take Demidov and we got levshunov. That's going to be one that hurts for a long time.
Steven Ellis saying that Michael Misa is only a goal scorer is just incorrect. He is a detailed 2 way Center that is a world class goal scorer. He is one of the smartest players in this draft. Steven is just wrong.
It's definitely a different assessment than most scouts have. Almost everyone else says he's a well-rounded player with no gaps in his game. Martone for instance is definitely the worst skater of the top four by a wide margin too. Hagens is definitely the weakest at the point of attack out of the four.
@@jfkst1 And Hagens is also 5'10" I don't know why people are just glossing over that. Hagens isn't in the Jack Hughes, Bedard level at that size. That matters. Misa is 6'1" that matters.
@@Lebowski55 Another issue I have with Ellis' assessment is that Schaefer is like Hughes or Makar. He's not nearly that kind of lateral agility and puck handling. The Niedermayer comparison actually seems fit for him. Not saying he'll be that good just his style. He activates a lot like Makar and Hughes but his linear speed is what is so good. Not his agility or hands.
@@jfkst1 I agree with you. Schaefer stylistically really is nothing like Makar or Hughes. He is 6'2", those guys are 5'11". He is a much better rush defender than Hughes. He isn't as freewheeling as those guys. He is fast up and down the ice but he isn't as a dynamic an east west skater. Hes not as good a puck handler as those guys. If hes Niedermayer, then he is a better overall player than both of those guys and I guess its a moot point. But yeah, he is nothing like Makar or Hughes.
whoever they draft this year wont' change how this team does next season and whether they're in position for another top 3 pick, I say go schaefer. they need a true game breaking #1 defenseman and Levshunov was never projected to be that guy. This gives Korchinski 2-3 years to show what he is, and if he's not what they need then hopefully they'll have a much better Schaefer ready to go.
@@spunky1973 I think Misa will have a higher draft stock than Martone, he was a no show in team Canada’s terrible performance, meanwhile Misa is still crushing the OHL
Well other than Vlasic, their picking hasn’t been too good. Bedard was obvious but not the generational player all thought he is, not even close. Fire Davidson and bring Dale Talon back. He was responsible for the Hawks team that won all the cups.
Bro you have to give bedard time.. he’s on the worst team in the world with little help.. he’s miles better than Jack his first 2 years, and he’s 19 let’s wait 2-3 more years and see what happens but if he can be at 95 plus points a year by year 5 and doing it constantly then that imo is good enough
Generational players don't take multiple years to get elite. They come into the league elite. Bedard will be a first ballot Hall of famer but not a generational player like Crosby or McDavid etc.
@@jfkst1 I want you to look up who those guys played with when they got drafted and then get back to me the talent they had around them let them succeed Bedard is playing with a team that probably wouldn’t even make it to the finals of the Calder cup
@@derekbodford6735 McDavid and Crosby were 2nd in pts/game in their first two years after being drafted on the second from last teams in the league in their draft years. Bedard was also drafted to a 2nd worst team in the league...and is 57th in pts/game so far through the first two year. Just be quiet. He's not in the same universe. Every other generational talent from Gretzky, Lemieux, Ovechkin, etc. is the same as Crosby and McDavid. Bedard is not their peer.
@@derekbodford6735 exactly he’s still killing it too, 37 points in 41 games leading the worst team in the nhl by a margin in points, why are people so doubtful?
Faceoff wins are VERY important!

You’re not serious are you? Years of dominance? With who?
@@bigdaddycoolonelevshunov, Bedard, korchinski, nazar, Moore, and a possible elite forward prospect from this draft and next years draft.
He forgot to add roman kantserov, sacha boisvert, marek vanaker, del mastro, vlasic into his list
There must be a sweet spot for both parties regarding the S Jones move.
Hopefully something can be done well before 27/28.

@@MlNlclips Misa would be great he’s probably laughing his ass off at team Canada’s shitshow of a tournament
If the hawks take Martone which i would like, they’ll make him go to college. They just enjoy that development path more
Any of Schaefer, Hagans, or Martone will be great. Each player has specific attributes that would help the Blackhawks.
If they do pick up Schaefer they need to move one of our elite d prospects for an elite f prospect, Bedard needs more talent around him, i wish they went for a forward like demidov last year instead of levshunov because then picking a potential superstar defensemen like Schaefer would be much easier.

Get Schaefer and trade korch or lev for a top scoring offensive player to play with Bedsy
Why did you call him Bedsy? So odd that people who aren’t on the team or know him personally call him that.
@ I know him. He and I spend 6-8 hours a week together. We laugh, we cry and we celebrate hawks games together

@@tobiasthederp 😭😭😭😭😭
There was a report that Jones is the last person on the ice and the first person off it. Is that true? If so he should not be wearing a letter.
Well he's got the key to the locker room so he's responsible for locking up and having it open.
The Blackhawks will probably just take another defenseman.
I fucking hope not, Bedard needs more talent around him
@Tj-du4mj Demidov 7goals 4 assists in his last 6 games playing against grown men in khl....Hawks missed out on a good player there. All us Hawks fans wanted and expected them to take Demidov and we got levshunov. That's going to be one that hurts for a long time.
Kantserov has been playing better than Demidov and his numbers are the best for players in his age group
@@cygnusx-1862 100% I was screaming at Davidson through my tv after that pick
A coach?
Isn't Schaefer out with a broken collar bone for the rest of the season? Why would the Hawks want to draft an injured guy?
Newsflash...broken bones can heal.

Top Consensus Draft Prospects
1. James Hagens
2. Porter Martone
3. Matthew Schaefer
4. Michael Misa
The Hawks should take the best forward available.
@@spunky1973 I think Misa will have a higher draft stock than Martone, he was a no show in team Canada’s terrible performance, meanwhile Misa is still crushing the OHL
