Im here for the frantic overreacting when they select a goalie at 63.

I'm going to go out on a limb and say that the Canadian team with the top pick take the top ranked Canadian kid that plays center.
 
What a horrible return for a player of DeBrincat's caliber and age.

He's 24 so just entering his prime and he's already one of the best goal scorers in the league. I understand the cap issues but he seems like the type of core piece you'd retain going into a rebuild. He'll sign a big cap hit but be worth every penny.

I thought trading DeBrincat at all was the wrong move but at least a massive return could justify it but trading a player as good as him at his age for such a soft return seems like a gigantic whiff on the Blackhawks' part.
 
Really don’t think it’s that bad for Chicago. DeBrincat is a good player and a 1st liner but will never be a difference maker. 7th overall+39th for a one dimensional 5’8 winger is pretty spot on
 
Lots of talk about DeAngelo to the Flyers. They’re going to get two local boys this off-season with him and Gaudreau. Book it
With Torts too, I thought they were going to be a team stuck in purgatory but I wouldn't be surprised to see them being pretty competitive now.

A 24 year old that scored 40 goals twice is not a difference maker?

You've got to wonder if Chicago will attach one of those picks to try and move Toews and free up cap. They need to resign the young talent like DeB...oh wait.
