The Dach boys are made of glass. It’s too bad, but I’d bet KD has more or less written off Colton.

Colton was really good to start the year it's just a question of health. He's got a plus shot and great motor.

Contracted through the 25-26 season. Maybe if he seems guaranteed an NHL spot after next year they'll release him early like Michkov
3 decisions stillness to be made:
1.The Lev back to MSU or signELC now and send to Rockford decision.
My thoughts: Back to MSU 1 more season forc2 reasons:
i) to allow more stagger between his 2nd contract and Bedard's...if they sign him now then only 1 season separates big pay increase between Bedard and Lev 2nd contracts..Sending him back to MSU adds a further year of stagger for the big cap hits expected for these extentions that any GM must consider planning for infuture cap allocation.
ii) Rockford D corps will be crowded as is ...expect KK sent down to play big minutes all situations and to "develop" better reads and more physicality...
KK Allan
EdM Crevier
Phillips D.J.King
X (7th D) =?
2.The Connor Kelley decision..do not see that he signed ELC yet..I think they have to Aug.15th to decide...do not know if hesigns a nAHL contract with Rockford if Hawks don't sign him or goes elsewhere.
If he signs with Hawks or just anAHL deal in Rockford , he would eitger be 7th D in Rockford or 6th with vet D.J King as 7th D.
3. The Martin Misiak decision..go back tohis Jr club or to AHL in Rockford?
My thoughts:
Given crowded forwards group in Rockford best he goes back to his Jr.club in the OHL...

Pretty sure the contract will slide if he doesn't play in the NHL this year, or plays less than 10 NHL games. So don't have to worry about that.
Was wondering about Connor Kelley, him not being at prospect camp(Basse and Gorman as well) probably means no future with the Hawks
Those of you who watch the NCAA. How did Oliver Moore look this year? The production looks decent but guess I was expecting a bit Moore 
And what should be expected going into the next season? Over a point per game and a big role for the American team in the WJC?

He started slow but was really good after returning from the WJC. He wasn't on the top powerplay unit for most of the year and Minnesota didn't score a ton as a team, but he was a consistent factor in the ~10-15 games I caught at least a part of, even when he didn't get on the scoresheet. It would be disappointing if he didn't take a step forward in production but I think his freshman year was overall pretty strong and barring injury he will be a lock for a spot on the WJC team this year. I don't think he will be a focal point but if they use him as a wing I think he has a good chance to contribute in the top six and on the PK.Those of you who watch the NCAA.

I'm taking the high road moving forward.
Agreed. Here's a bit of color(The stats include exhibition games so they won't match final totals)...
Pre-WJC: 19 games, 4 goals, 10 assists, +8. During this time he played left wing and center and by my count had 5 different linemates. The plays were there, either Moore was not finishing and the same held for teammates on his set-ups so he could have had more points.
Post-WJC: 11 games, 5 goals, 12 assists, +15. After the WJC, he centered Snuggerud and Pitlick and the line was hot. Not that I agree with it, but I believe both Wheeler and Powers of The Athletic had Moore as their #1 prospect ahead of Nazar at this point. This production occurred with just a sniff of time on PP #1.
Stretch Run: 9 games, 2 goals, 1 assist, -4. The top line goes cold and Pitlick is moved off the line. All three had a severe drop in production. Snuggerud still had his looks but nothing. During one late season game the Minny color commentator felt that Snuggerud had to be injured.
Moore played with very little #1 PP time last year. With Pitlick and Snuggerud returning and the transfer addition of Matthew Wood, that may still be the case. I do see him as getting a regular turn on the PK due to some upperclassmen moving on. As a freshman, he defferred a lot to his linemates and I don't see that as happening as much this comming season. Expect him to increase his goal total as he has a good shot while on the move. He'll also take face-offs at key moments late in the game with the loss of Jaxon Nelson.

Would be nuts if Moore, Rinzel, and Greene all signed at the same time

Next year Levshunov , Del Mastro , Kaiser possibly Allan will all graduate to Nhl or be very close . Korchinski , Vlasic , Jones , Phillips , T J Brodie still holdovers . Martinez and Murphy more than likely gone .

No ELC for Marcel. Hawks have until June to sign him, you figure they will if they decide he's worthy of an ELC as it's not really in his interest to go into a new organization than the one he's already been with.

Let him pick the brain of Patrick Maroon . Was hoping for our other Czech youngster Felcman to get drafted in the import draft and play Major Jr this year

Always have to take these things with a grain of salt (Wheeler in particular always seems to jump newly drafted prospects to the head of his lists) but interesting read nonetheless

What I'm hearing about the Blackhawks: Loaded AHL roster, much more
The Blackhawks could have as many as 17 draft picks playing with the IceHogs this season.
www.nytimes.com
Tid bits...
"As for the forwards, Frank Nazar will be the one prospect to keep an eye on in training camp. He’s probably the only one who has a realistic shot of making the team to start the season. The Blackhawks were mindful of not trying to block Nazar’s path when they made their offseason moves. They addressed a lot of forward roles, but they didn’t get a player who you’d say is their second-line center. The reason for that is the Blackhawks envision Nazar there soon. Whether soon means the start of the season will depend on Nazar’s play throughout camp."
"What Roman Kantserov did in the KHL got the Blackhawks excited about his future this season, and furthering that excitement was Kantserov’s willingness to travel from Russia to attend Blackhawks development camp last week. The Blackhawks never expect their Russian prospects to do that, but the organization welcomed it. It’s another sign Kantserov is committed to signing when his KHL contract expires after the 2025-26 season."
