[HeisenBaez]

I'm looking forward to seeing him developed. I really want Marcel in Chicago in a couple of years.

 

[Space umpire]

He's like, the same size as Ovechkin.

So Kyle from Chicago got Lardis and Lard ass in the same draft.

 

[swerdnase]

It's been referred to but there hasn't been any clip. So turn your attention to 1:08:30 of this video. I love this kid already!

[Kevin Musto]

Not good enough for an ELC?

 

[clydesdale line]

Surprised he's not staying one more year in the Q. Probably would've received more ice time with a couple of guys graduating.

 

[Kurtosis]

Would imagine the Hawks want more control over his development.

 

[belfour30]

I'm really rooting for this guy to become a mainstay in the bottom 6.

In time yes no reason to rush

 

[TLEH]

I spent a lot of time in Plzen. What a nice place. Hope this guy can become a bottom 6 defensive checking forward.

[DisgruntledHawkFan]

At his size he's better off playing against professional grown men. Not a lot of offensive skill to stunt the growth of.

 

[Pile]

At his size he's better off playing against professional grown obese men. Not a lot of offensive skill to stunt the growth of.

fixed that for you

 

[EddieTheEagle]

Double-name bias is in effect again.

 

[WarriorofTime]

AHL deal. How long do the Blackhawks have to sign him to an ELC again?

Two years

Marcel Marcel will be 20 on Halloween. At 6'4" 245lbs ... it's probably best he plays against men. If we get lucky, maybe he becomes a legitimate wing on the checking line in a couple of years. There's no need for a goon nowadays, but we still need a guy who is 6'4" 245lbs who'll throw their weight around.

 

[Pez68]

Surprised he's not staying one more year in the Q. Probably would've received more ice time with a couple of guys graduating.

Why would a player who is turning 20, and is 6'4 and 245, not want to play professional hockey? Weird take.

Why get paid when you can do it for free?

 

[ChiHawks10]

I'm still blown away someone could look at this guy and think he was fat.

 

[clydesdale line]

Nice interview with "fat guy" Marcel Marcel.

 

[DisgruntledHawkFan]

Byfuglien was over three bills in junior.

 

[Jersey Fan 12]

Just over 30 games between Rockford and the ECHL in 2023-24 - not much offense in the AHL and just 12 PMs between the two clubs.

What is the plan for this season/likelihood of him receiving an ELC?

 

[TLEH]

I'd say zero.

Marcel Marceau has a better shot at it.
