ESPN +: Biggest NHL breakout prospects for all 31 teams, plus the breakout of the season

Alec Regula, D, London Knights (OHL)

Acquired in a trade with the Red Wings, Regula scored 27 goals to lead all OHL defensemen. His goal total was inflated a bit by his role on London's potent power play in more of a net-front/bumper role, but Regula rounded out more offensive aspects in his game.

Athletic: The most attractive compliance buyout option on every NHL...

Big surprise for the Hawks, lol.

Powers ($): What I'm hearing about the Blackhawks, Max Shalunov and more...

Shalunov's agent said Thursday all of that what Nikolishin said was untrue and he was upset would say as much. He also said the plan is to play in the NHL next season.

Whether that's just a leverage play (w/CKSA Moscva), remains to be seen. Also, no info on Shalunov from the Hawks' end.

Laz's article proves he's a dick. Contents: What if Toews was drafted #1 in 06?

How does it prove he's a dick?

I just read the article, and outside of him questioning whether Toews is the forgone best player in that draft, I don't see anything wrong with it.

If anything, it's salt in the wounds of Blues fans who could've had a Selke level talent for a decade longer than what they've had ROR for, and could very easily have had more success because of it.

Suggesting Toews could have been a Blue...Let's not think about that. It was mostly a joke.

If we get a season going again for 2020/21....would you attend games IF new rules were put in like everyone must wear a mask to prevent wet droplets hitting g your seat neighbours?

This question goes for any sports I would guess..

To cover any legal liability I assume spirts teams will have to print on tickets that the ticket holder assumes all risks of getting g sick from any viral infection and that inisitibg on mask wearing g covers the club from any legal liability if for some reason you still ci tracked any virus let alone you know who h one we are dealing g with now.

In other words will it be a seaon of the old "normal" or a season of "a new normal" for all mass gathering events?

P.s. you can still yell at the refs through a mask,right?

Tge 6vft/2meter distance rule would of course be impossible to do ..but tat easzakays dubiusxscience as stiduescon wet droplets spread showvtgey can travel much farther(13to 27 feet depending on which studies you find on Goiogle for this).

So again...wiukd You go to any game in any sport if forced to wear a mask to enter the premises?

Also if lawyers advise this still not enough precaution the what other precautions would be demanded before they let you in? Taking your temperature?

Pretty cool that Crawford give his newborn the middle name Emery. Gotta imagine that’s in memory of Ray.

Hawks had the 2nd most games played by rookies this season.

Yup, and A LOT of those are former top 10 picks(Dach, Boqvist, Nylander). High end skill.

Jonathan Toews turning 32 today. Damn it's flown by.

 

[Malagahawks]

Probably no compliance buyout for Seebs.

Probably no compliance buyout for Seebs.

LTIRetirment it is!

Not Seabs plans though

Not Seabs plans though

That’s actually a good sign. “HOPES to START skating”. Sounds like laying the groundwork to a long recovery that doesn’t go well.

 

[Mrfenn92]

Any interest in Mikko lehtonen for the hawks

This is what I am hoping it is, a well thought out marketing plan to make sure that the NHL knows that he is anticipating to return and at some point in that well documented attempt they come to the conclusion that he just can't do it despite the attempt to fix him via surgeries and he stays on LTIR for good.

McDLT's gone...No more 'well thought-out' marketing plans.

I fully believe Seabrook wants to return. Listen to him when he was scratched and how upset he was. That's not a guy who thought he deserved or sounds like he accepts he is on the tail end of his career.

That being said, the Hawks won't clear him if they don't think he's able to play. Remember Joffrey Lupul saying he was ready and the Leafs never cleared him?

He not only has to be ready to play but at NHL level.

They'll keep failing him on his physical and eventually they'll tell him that he can't play anymore. As long as he's in the Hawks org, they can give him another job with the team.
