What's the upside to Blackhawk's young Defenceman

[pvr]

At least we got the honor of having Brandon Manning on our team for a while

Wonder whatever happened to that poster who loved Manning? Can’t remember the name.

Reportedly, two other teams were offering a 1st + for Risto. Big D-men are always in demand, even more if they're RH. Then the time to trade Risto for a 1st (which is debatable) was last February as a rental. Not after signing a 5 year contract. Teams get skittish trading for term, sans elite...

His most recent post. Hope all is well in Europe, Boxcar!

DHF’s burner account for sure

That would be on the Wings board hyping up Maatta and Kopecky.

I loved Boxcar.

He was unapologetically himself.

I don't know if I've ever seen a poster so absolutely enamored with a guy who really had no business in the NHL at any point. I always enjoyed him for the laughs.

Fair point. Haha.

I loved Boxcar.

We need a Boxcar appreciation thread. I’m sure we can come up with some rationale for how Bedard wouldn’t have been possible without him.

Let’s update this post

-traded to BOS-Ian Mitchell ceiling top 4
-traded to VAN-Riley Stillman ceiling top 6/7
-traded to BOS-Alec Regula ceiling top 5 /swingman winger on pp
-not resigned-Jakub Galvas ceiling top 5
-traded at o MTL-Nicolas Beaudin ceiling top 4
Alec Vlasic ceiling top 4 shutdown
Louis Crevier ceiling top 6/7
Isaac Phillips ceiling top 4
-not signed-Michael Krutil ceiling top 4
Wyatt Kaiser ceiling top 3 /4
Connor Kelley ceiling top 6/7
Ethan Del Mastro ceiling top 3/4
Taige Harding ceiling top 6/7
Nolan Allan ceiling top 4 shutdown
Sam Rinzel ceiling top 2
Kevin Korchinski ceiling top 2
-not resigned-Filip Roos ceiling top 6

So from that list, that leaves
Alex Vlasic, superb after playing a year in AHL, signed long term
Kevin Korchinski, up and down first NHL season, loss of dad and coming off a year where he played a lot of hockey
Wyatt Kaiser, benefitted from AHL as well
Isaak Phillips, resigned for one
Louis Crevier, resigned for one
Ethan Del Mastro, second year AHL
Nolan Allan, second year AHL
Sam Rinzel, probably signs at the end end of season like others
Taige Harding, last year of NCAA
Connor Kelley, whose returning for 5th year in NCAA
Added top 2024 draft dman in Artyom Levshunov, who signed and will be a regular pro now and Ty Henry who should follow the same path as Crevier and Phillips…

Looks a lot better under Davidson

Del Mastro and Allan following in Duncan Keith’s path via the AHL
