Despite having the 12th-worst record in the NHL, the Blackhawks managed to come out of the draft lottery with the 3rd overall selection. While Jack Hughes and Kaapo Kakko are without a doubt the top two picks, the rest of the top 10 is a mystery. With so many options on the table, who should the Blackhawks select with the 3rd pick in the 2019 Draft?
Earlier this morning, the rumors swirling around former Blackhawks Head Coach Joel Quenneville became official. Coach Q will return to the NHL next season after signing a five-year contract with the Florida Panthers. Hopefully, the Chicago Blackhawks will be making some big splashes of their own this offseason.
The Chicago Blackhawks have recalled defenseman Dennis Gilbert from the Rockford IceHogs of the AHL. Although his offensive numbers aren't too impressive, Gilbert holds an advantage being a more physical, stay-at-home defenseman. Gilbert may be stuck in the logjam of bottom-pairing blue-liners the Blackhawks currently have, but his style of play could earn him some playing time next season.
The Chicago Blackhawks playoff hopes are all but over after being blanked by Darcy Kuemper and the Arizona Coyotes on Tuesday night. The offense struggled once again to create quality scoring chances, and for the sixth straight game, they scored two goals or fewer. The Blackhawks had an opportunity to pick up a crucial two points in the desert, but they managed to come up short with the season on the line
After recording an assist last Wednesday night in Toronto, Erik Gustafsson became just the third Blackhawk defenseman to record 50 points in a season since 1996. Despite the rocky ride of a season, Gustafsson has proved to be one of the most offensively skilled defensemen in the NHL. He has certainly made the most of his opportunity this year, and hopefully, he'll continue to improve defensively with experience.
The Chicago Blackhawks and Toronto Maple Leafs last met on October 7th, which was the third game of the season. Patrick Kane and Auston Matthews had a little back and forth action late in the third period, as both players scored goals in the final minutes of regulation. The Leafs would go on to win the game 7-6 in OT, but it wound up being one of the most entertaining games of the 2018-19 season for the Chicago Blackhawks.
After a tough weekend in California, the Chicago Blackhawks push for the postseason has essentially come to an end. With just 16 games left in the regular season, the Blackhawks should be focused on the future of their roster down the stretch. While it isn't the result the fans were wanting, there are plenty of reasons to be encouraged after the season the Chicago Blackhawks have had.
The Chicago Blackhawks are currently one point back of the Minnesota Wild for the final Wild Card spot in the Western Conference. The Colorado Avalanche and the Dallas Stars are in the middle of the playoff race as well, and both of them come to Chicago this weekend.
On Monday, February 11th the Chicago Blackhawks recalled Dylan Sikura from the Rockford IceHogs. Sikura played 11 games with the Blackhawks during his first NHL stint of the season, recording three assists. The final 26 games of the season are very important for Sikura, as he's a restricted free agent at the end of the season. Expect Blackhawks' Head Coach Jeremy Colliton to give Dylan Sikura significant ice-time down the stretch.
Since Dylan Strome has arrived in Chicago, he's thrived in the second line center role, demonstrating why he was selected with the third overall pick back in 2015.
In order to know what the Blackhawks have, Jeremy Colliton will need to give Brendan Perlini more of an offensive look in the final 31 games of the season.
