Looking at our prospects pool, we have a dozen to 15 NHLers at this time training elsewhere than the BlackHawks roster.
Some nice surprises like Savaoie and the Russian (2025) and Dickinson. Alot of size and speed coming up.
I think the Russians decision to stay in KHL until 2025 is the hint for managements timeline.
Lots of vacated cap by then.
If Kane stays and we luck into Bedard I would say 2024-25 could be a surprising year full of rushed up yoots but hellsva lot of fun(similar to Rangers last year where we arrive earlier than expected).
Prepare to suck two more years, stuff ourselves full of assets, and start to be fun in 2025-26 season even without Kane/Bedard.
Start to make purchases to win now in 27,28 and hope we don't fizzle instead of sizzle like the Kings and Sabres.
It's really not that bad considering the ride we had.
