[DisgruntledHawkFan]

Went with Arvid, who I think is our best goalie prospect.

 

[CallMeShaft]

Went with Gajan.

Let #13 be a goalie duel.

 

[hawksrule]

Went with Guttman. Always easy to root for wheels and motor.

I voted for Misiak the last 2 times but I wish I could switch to Gajan

It's crazy that we're at prospect 13 and have some of the players we have still available. There are a lot of players I like here that I don't think are going to be picked in the top-20.

I went with Vlasic. But I'd have gone with Vlasic above Allan, who was voted too high IMO.

 

[belfour30]

Vlasic should probably be ahead of EDM. He was an analytical darling as a defensive defenseman in the AHL.

He's never gonna score a lot of points but he has a chance to be a high end defensive defenseman for the next group.

I will never say anyone is gonna be as good of a defender as Hjalmarsson because he was an elite defender and and those are so rare in this day and age.

I'd go as far as to say that Hjalmarsson was a generational defensive defenseman.

Vlasic should be ahead of both Allan and EDM. EDM is just a more physical, slower version of Vlasic. Vlasic won't ever pop offensively but with his skating and size, he's going to be an entry prevention machine.

Oh no ! ! ! ! Don't do it. Stay strong son. It's not easy to swim against the tide but you can do it. Misiak all the way.

Even accounting for "recency bias" - as a Hawks fan I'm very please with our prospect pool when compared to the top prospects poll taken before the 2022 draft:

1. F Lukas Reichel, Eisbaren Berlin (DEL) (89.1%)
2. D Nicolas Beaudin, Rockford IceHogs (AHL) (46.9%)
3. D Wyatt Kalynuk, Rockford IceHogs (AHL) (44.9%)
4. G Drew Commesso, Boston University Terriers (HE) (59.2%)
5. D Wyatt Kaiser, University of Minnesota-Duluth Bulldogs (NCHC) (47.5%)
6. F Landon Slaggert, University of Notre Dame (B1G) (29.1%)
7. F Artur Kayumov, Lokomotiv Yaroslavl (KHL) (26.3%)
T8. D Nolan Allan, Prince Albert Raiders (WHL) (26.8%)
T8. D Alex Vlasic, Boston University Terriers (HE) (26.8%)
10. F Colton Dach, Kelowna Rockets (WHL) (37.7%)
11. D Isaak Phillips, Rockford IceHogs (AHL) (35.7%)
12. F Evan Barratt, Rockford IceHogs (AHL) (33.3%)
13. G Arvid Söderblom, Rockford IceHogs (AHL) (35.9%)
14. F MacKenzie Entwistle, Rockford IceHogs (AHL) (45.0%)
15. F Andrei Altybarmakyan, Rockford IceHogs (AHL) (41.9%)
16. D Alec Regula, Rockford IceHogs (AHL) (25.9%)
17. F Michal Teply, Rockford IceHogs (AHL) (33.3%)
18. F Josiah Slavin, Rockford IceHogs (AHL) (34.3%)
19. D Jakub Galvas, Rockford IceHogs (AHL) (29.4%)
20. F Mike Hardman, Rockford IceHogs (AHL) (47.4%)

40% of those guys aren't even with the Hawks organization anymore, and there's only 7 or 8 guys that have a better than 50/50 chance to be in our current top-20.
