QUESTION OF THE DAY — How Excited Are You That The Blackhawks Feel Like Clear-Cut Winners From Day 1 Of The 2023 NHL Draft?! Bedard AND Moore?!! AM I DREAMING???!
Very surprised Moore fell to 19. After so many dmen were taken first half of the round, I knew they were going to get a good forward. I expected Barlow or Honzek, but when they were taken and Moore was available I knew KD would pick him. Such as steal. I prefer him over the other two every time. LFG!!!
Patrick Kane and Conner McDavid were both pt/game players as rookies so I’m hoping for 70+ points as a rookie.
And would love to know your thoughts on all the draft picks / trades that were made. It felt like we reached a few times in the 2nd round. Did you like Gajan over Hrabal in net. What did you think of passing on Riley Heidt? And why did we trade the 51st pick for a pick next year that could be lower than that in 2024? Love the Podcast!
If Bedard can score 25 or 30 goals and have 60 points by New Years I am gonna be ecstatic
GO HAWKS
While some may think Fantilli going third was a bum deal for him, he said back at the combine that if he could pick a team to go to, he'd choose CBJ because of the ties to the University of Michigan. He's probably super excited to be chosen by them.
He came, he saw, he cooked
Good for the fans after so much BS the last little while it's cool you guys get to start a new chapter
I kind of compare us to New Jersey, I hope it can turn around quickly where they'll be in the playoffs !!
Were you disappointed Caleb was not resigned? Good convo Jack! Go Hawks!!!
Moore is 5’11” 190lbs. 30lbs heavier than Patrick Kane, when the Blackhawks drafted him
