2024-25 Roster…too soon?

[tymed]

Is there any kind of timeline or criteria given by Davidson for calling up any of the younger guys?

 

[ello]

Point is 5’11

INazar SHOULD be fine despite his size, but man there aren’t a lot of 5’9 top 6 centreman in the NHL

 

[ClydeLee]

Did Nazar shrink from his injury? At the combine he was listed at 5'10"

Deadline time id say

They all lie anyways. Point is 5’11 on skates maybe.

 

[GIADF]

Love Bedard. Love what Nazar projects to be.

But we don’t have a linemate that works for those two to be paired together. Too small.

Not until we sign Rantanen at least.

Kinda doubt Rantanen hits the open market.

Probably not but I’m going to dream until the dream is dead.

 

[Kevin Musto]

Nazar is indeed 5'10" based on official combine measurements

Point's official combine measurement was 5'9.75"

 

[GIADF]

You know the NHL needs to schedule more Sunday games when we are debating half an inch.

Misa-Bedard-Nazar

Everyone alternates playing the role of center based on where you are at at any given moment of time on the ice. Highlight reel plays every single night.

Throw one of Boisvert, Moore, Greene, or Reichel (if he learns to play center without Maroon by his side) at 2C.

 

[Dead Meat]

So I'm guessing the Blackhawks handled this surgery.

What was supposed to be 5-7 weeks for a fairly common meniscus surgery is now going on 13 weeks. Not a good look.

This sucks but in my opinion it's on the player to get the rehab right...that's the most important aspect when it comes to recovery.

I think Moore and Boisvert project to be some nice options if theyre clearly not more impactful as Cs.

But yeah, we need some more beef. Rantanen + a PF from the draft would be the dream.

No. Actually, the most important part is performing the surgery correctly. They butchered Seabrook, for instance.

 

[ChiHawks10]

Right. Seabrook's hip surgery was botched. Now this fairly simple meniscus surgery looks to also be botched. May be time to look for a new team surgeon.

 

[Dead Meat]

No. Actually, the most important part is performing the surgery correctly. They butchered Seabrook, for instance.

You never know how they turn out - a cadaver meniscus could've been utilized and rejected by his immune system. I've had one meniscus and two acl reconstructions for what it's worth....

 

[DisgruntledHawkFan]

Statistically speaking, these are the best lines we could roll

Teravainen-Nazar-Bedard
Bertuzzi-Kurashev-Donato
Mikheyev-Dickinson-Anderson
Hall-Foligno-Reichel
Smith

You could swap Teravainen and Donato, but otherwise this is it

What statistics would those be?

 

[Kevin Musto]

What statistics would those be?

Those of the big brain variety

 

[ploppsdman]

Brayden Point

Nazar is more likely to be Kris Versteeg than Point.

 

[Mjul Qvist]

Nazar is more likely to be Kris Versteeg than Point.

That is not true. He´ll be Frank Nazar and how good will be determinated in a few years from now.

 

[Mrfenn92]

Hawks gonna claim Zach MacEwan to fix bedard and the offense

 

[Chelios]

Nazar is more likely to be Kris Versteeg than Point.

I see Vinne Trochek as a good comp for Nazar.

 

[TLEH]

I see Vinne Trochek as a good comp for Nazar.

He reminds me a lot of a bigger Trochek when I watched him.

First page on draft day.

 

[Chelios]

First page on draft day.

Great minds!

 

[Drumman44]

Does anyone on here have a tiny part of them that hopes Nazar ends up being bad only because they want to see how Musto handles it?

No this is dumb. We want Frank to be great even if we have to listen to “I told you so’s” for ten years
