Every team in the league would take Nazar over Dach.5'2 2c for 6'3 guy who was good in playoffs and has been good when not injured.

Agreed. People said the same thing about Treleving, Benning and Chia and those all turned out great. Haters gonna hate!This will age like milk
I'll still never understand the West pick. There were so many other great players available, why throw a Hail Mary that has almost no chance of turning out?Davidson miss steps.
Korchinski (the handling of him not the draft of him... yet.)
Trading to move up twice for Sasha Boisvert costing 4 second round picks where he could have drafted Cole Hutson
Levshunov over Demidov
trading for the pick that drafted mason west using the picks that were used to draft Alexander Zharovsky and potentially Bryce Pickford
signing Corey Perry who ended up SAing Bedards drunk mom at the team hotel
Trading Taylor Hall for some reason for a third and eating 50% of Mikko's contract... what? (Hall would have been third best forward on Chicago this year)
getting into a bidding war with San Jose over Byram about to turn in a year UFA that wasnt going to resign without getting him extended in a sign and trade and losing Crevier your starting 1RD
both Hagel and Debrincat trades were bad but its possible if one or both was still on the team then the team doesnt land Bedard, which is a crazy paradox of luck and should still be negative moves on his part.
Trading for Byram also is a signal of no confidence IN YOUR OWN DRAFTING ABILITY as you drafted three defensemen in the first round since 2022. (it usually takes a few years for defensemen blah blah blah. its been 4 years for Rinzel and Korchinski. How many years do they get?)

Most, if not all, playoff teams would not want Nazar as their 2C.Every team in the league would take Nazar over Dach.
Nazar is better than Dach.Most, if not all, playoff teams would not want Nazar as their 2C.
Dach's career high is the same in less games played and brings elements other than offense. Not saying Dach is vastly superior but Nazar's the most overrated player in the league.Nazar is better than Dach.
Indeed the price was steep and taking on Greenlaw's contract too,why? Buffalo is laughingByram is very good and instantly makes the Blackhawks ways better. However, it seems like a steep price. Maybe they are eyeing Tuch?
Byram is a puck mover and provides Offense...maybe what the BlackHawks are looking for in the backend but outside of that...he's not great/good DefensivelyHorrible take by OP. I was just looking at 4th overall picks since 2000 and Byram is as good or better than the vast majority of them. Plus he's still young with plenty of room to get even better.
Numero uno Byram? If he hits 2-3 they should be happyIt was a lot for Byram, but IMO Byram has the potential to be a true 1D. If he fails miserably in CHI, then ok, but id bet against it.
wow...I always viewed Dach as Injury prone and not a Centre maybe a 3rd line RWinger or worse 4th RWinger...Nazar is going to playing long after Dach has hung them up in the KHL...just saying don't be madDach's career high is the same in less games played and brings elements other than offense. Not saying Dach is vastly superior but Nazar's the most overrated player in the league.
Goddamn you mods, give me my laugh react back.5'2 2c for 6'3 guy who was good in playoffs and has been good when not injured.
Hilarious hill to die on. Every team takes Nazar over DachMost, if not all, playoff teams would not want Nazar as their 2C.
you can believe that if you like, but everyone in Chicago that cares about hockey knew that it was Bedard's mom the very next day because the hotel staff was talking about it. That is just what the team said to deflect attention.Didn't that end up being a female Blackhawks staff member and had nothing to do with Bedard's mother?
He's 24 and not too bad defensively. He still averaged over 22 mins a game with Buffalo despite Dahlin being the main guy.Byram is a puck mover and provides Offense...maybe what the BlackHawks are looking for in the backend but outside of that...he's not great/good Defensively
SO much of a 1D is the ability to run a pp well. Actual defense after that is a bonus.Numero uno Byram? If he hits 2-3 they should be happy
