The first of two top prospect games to be held against the Wild tonight on the Wild YouTube channel.
I forget now but 7 pm? Flipper. Yes, correct. Anyway...chance to see Allan I think before he goes back to juniors.
My current take on the Blackhawks draft choices is they reached early and often. I'm gonna try to move past it, because I think they acquired some high floor players that will contribute for a decade and the main point was to get the guys you liked most and still get The Dach 2.0. They abandoned Stan's mission to find mini-mes and went for beef and I cant complain about that.
If you begin with the premise we had an itch to reach for Dach...my guess is they fell in love with the guy they were looking to draft in round 2, but were afraid Dach would get swooped by the third.
They moved around and smoothed some value into it. If Dach 2.0 pans out and they got a 2nd pairing defenseman...well that would make a big win of this or any draft without getting into all the late sleeper potential.
