Dmitri Simashev looks like an interesting D-man. Not much offense but does everything else well according to a couple of reports. I know the Hawks drafted Rinzel RHD and he can be a long-term project. In the interim maybe might be a good idea with all these picks to add a few more RHD: Lukas Dragicevic-6' 1" 190 lbs. Offensive D player could be a second pair option on the power play Andrew Gibson-6' 3" 195 lbs. strong defender Maxim Strbak-6' 2" 205 lbs. Committed to play at Michigan State, strong two-way game with offense upside There was a prospect ranking I saw somewhere yesterday that had these players at the Hawks draft slots: 1. Bedard 2. Danielson 3. Cristall 4. Myatovic 5. Strbak 6. Dragicevic I would be very happy with that haul. |

he'd be the first d-man taken if he had shown more offense, imo. big and can skate. if he is there at 19, I wonder if KD and Co think hard about taking him. they would have to take him these mocks have him dropping I cant believe that many teams would pass on him. his lack of offense scares folks, imo. the thing is, if he shows any, he could be a sure fire top pair guy. |

After the top 3 have been selected, the mock drafts have players all over the place. It'll be an exciting draft. |

Danielson right handed shot 6' 1" 185 lbs. can play in all situations. I believe Bedard was asked who the toughest player was he played against, and he said Danielson. |

Connor Bedard, the leading scorer in the WHL and the projected No. 1 pick of the 2023 draft, said Danielson was the toughest player he faced in his age group.
"He was probably the guy that maybe gave me the hardest game," Bedard said. "He's so fast, so skilled. So if you turn it over or something, he's going to go down and do something. He's a great player."www.nhl.com/news/nate-danielson-rises-in-nhl-draft-rankings/c-344799852the last mock i looked at had danielson at #18. i'm not going to look at any more. |

I believe you’re right that the lack of scoring makes some pause but I like having a lock down D-man who can chew up PK minutes and there are others who can deliver the scoring and playmaking. Seth would be freed up from PK duty. |

If Charlie Stramel drops to the 2nd round he's another center the Hawks should target, he's a big boy with good hands. 6'3" 216lbs and plays for Wisconsin. |

One guy the Hawks should target in the later rounds is 6'4" 244lb winger, Marcel Marcel. He definitely has size. hawks should target a player like Albert Albert, at least that's what i assume his name is. (you may be too young to remember this old canadian tire commercial.) |

Vlasic should be Seths D partner next season. I hope so, but the real question is what percentage of Hjammer are they? Hopefully a large fraction of a clone. Truth be told though I think Korch and Allan should be looked at hard when they are both ready for the NHL. |

Speculation out of Vancouver is that the Canucks might be willing to exchange the 11th pick for the 19th, provided the Hawks take on one of Garland, Boeser or Myers and give up one of their second round picks. Vancouver is looking to add a defenceman this draft and feel a good one would be available at pick 19 (though the top defender, Sandin-Pellica, is likely gone by pick 11). They also want to recoup picks they lost in trades last year. I have zero interest in Davidson adding yet another small winger in Garland. Myers also seems redundant unless the Hawks unload Murphy first. Boeser, however, is a good bounce-back candidate after a down year (and countless trade rumours). He is overpaid, but not by much, and the term is short. I would certainly consider taking him on for one of the later second round picks as part of that bigger deal. Interestingly, OEL's name was not mentioned by the Vancouver reporter. Garland plays bigger than he is, imo. I wouldn't mind taking him on. he will be dealt or let go at the end of his deal, anyway. I'd take both he and Boeser if it meant keeping 19 and giving up 2-3 second rounders. Myers is only signed for one more year, so I'd take him on too if it meant moving up. OEL has a NMC, that is likely why he isn't being mentioned much. Vancouver going to buy out OEL www.espn.com/nhl/story/_/id/37865636/vancouver-canucks-buy-oliver-ekman-larsson-contract |

That's a great draft considering 3 of them became Blackhawk legends, to bad Buff didn't play in Chicago longer, that's 6 rings between them. Lasse and Barinka were good dmen, not sure why they never played more NHL games. |

we think alike. i looked him up and he never played a game with the hawks or even a game in the hawks' system. mostly played for the blues. his first nhl goal was against chicago, though. |

(35) Danny Nelson, C
(44) David Edstrom, C
(51) Charlie Stramel, C

I won't be upset if we take him at 19, either. getting Edstrom and Stramel in the 2nd would be sweet. |
