When Richardson goes on and on about Smith, and if he plays him on 2nd line, you know we are in for long season. I see Hall gone at or before end of season. AA, Martinez and Brodie in same boat.

Next year will need another 4 nhl fa bodies most likely.

Be interested to see with Brodie. The 2nd year might scare people off. But McCabe's retention ends at end of the year so that isn't a huge deal.

What was KD thinking with that extra year? Like did he need to offer that to get the deal done?

TLEH · 2024-10-01T09:59:15-0400

I really want to see Korchinski in the AHL. He needs to bring more dynamic offense if he's going to bring the full impact he was drafted for.

Hawkaholic · 2024-10-01T12:48:12-0400

A little early to be hating on players and hoping to get out of a contract they haven't played a game on.

Hattrick Kane · 2024-10-02T01:49:15-0400

Nazar just got an early Christmas present. With AA and Reichel getting dummied so hard they should be sent to the ECHL, he has a chance for that 2C spot. Kurashev is likely more effective as a wing there and AA is clearly not an option.

But he has to play well Friday. If he does I think the spot is his.

He needs to play his ass off these next two games.

The spot is there for the taking, but he still has to earn it.

With Reichel - can someone explain what happened? I know it was a small sample size - but he had a great stretch late in 2022 and he has just flatlined after that. You can correctly say that 2022 was garbage time on a bad team - but all of last year was garbage time on a bad team as well. I don't think this is a "skill" issue where he doesn't have the ability to be a scoring line forward, which makes it a "will" issue. I just don't understand how a guy who has the opportunity he does to be such a train wreck on the ice.

They should talk to his parents on how to motivate him......seems to be a little pouty and withdrawn....he might just be a streaky player at best.

Honestly it just looks like he has lost all confidence out there. He doesn't assert himself. Doesn't trust his speed. Doesn't take anyone wide (I swear that 9/10 times he just curls with the puck inside the blueline). Is not getting to the dirty areas. He looks like someone who has gotten into his own head. I don't know what the answer is. I haven't completely given up on him becoming a good NHLer, but certainly his time, especially with the Hawks, is ticking to figure it out.

dj Mahoney · 2024-10-02T11:07:43-0400

Reichel seems to have a lot in common with former Blackhawk Martin Havlat. Let's hope he can be half as good.

Taze em · 2024-10-02T11:15:52-0400

Blackhawks point projection just went up 3 points with Korchinski demotion.

BHawk21 · 2024-10-02T11:16:08-0400

So we have

Jones, Vlasic, Martinez, Brodie, Murphy, Allen, and Phillips?

It would be pointless to keep Nazar up to be 11/12/13/14 Forward, he's not an NHL 2nd Line Center right now. Best for him to go and get guaranteed Top 6 ice time in the AHL.

Korch played his way to Rockford last night

Looks like Reichel has been gifted a spot

I bet they are thinking they have to time his demotion right in that big end of camp demotion day when teams have rosters set.

BHawk21 · 2024-10-02T11:22:21-0400

My Opening night Lineup

Bertuzzi-Bedard-Teravainen
Hall-Kurashev-Mikheyev
Foligno-Dickinson-Smith
Maroon-Donato-Anderson
Athanasiou/Reichel

Martinez-Jones
Vlasic-Murphy
Brodie-Allen
Phillips

Hattrick Kane · 2024-10-02T11:22:27-0400

Well good for Allan. I hope he plays next to Murphy and not Brodie. Phillips I’m guessing riding the press box.

That 2C spot makes me cry

IT’S ALLAN PEOPLE NOT ALLEN. IF HE IS GOING TO BE HERE GET HIS NAME RIGHT.
