Born and raised in Chicago. I am a huge Chicago sports fan, self taught drummer, and video game enthusiast. All about the B’s: Blackhawks, Bears, Bulls, Baseball, Beards, and Beer. I am also a pro wrestling fan (WWE/NJPW/ROH).
The NHL Draft is just a few weeks away and the Blackhawks are starting to put some names on their Big Board. The newest name to grace the Blackhawks' wish list is none other than top draft prospect, Brady Tkachuk.
This offseason, one of the biggest unknowns on this Blackhawks team is Corey Crawford. Will we see Crawford in peak form or will wear and tear finally catch up to him?
The rumor mill has been heating up for the Blackhawks over the past few days, as we get closer to the NHL offseason. The latest rumor that has developed is that the Blackhawks have contacted the Carolina Hurricanes about acquiring Justin Faulk.
There are a number of situations that would allow for the Blackhawks to bring John Tavares onboard. Let me break it down for you and show you what I believe is the most realistic path to Tavares.
Chicago has eight picks total in the 2018 NHL Draft, including two picks in the 1st Round, 8th and 27th (via Nashville), and four picks in the first three rounds.

Blackhawks' prospect, Victor Ejdsell, is currently lighting it up with the Rockford IceHogs on their quest for the franchise's first-ever Calder Cup. Right now, he has 8 points (5G, 3A) with a 4 +/- rating in 9 games.
Chicago Blackhawks' winger, Patrick Kane, accepted his role as Captain America and led Team USA to a victory over Team Canada in the Bronze medal game in the 2018 IIHF Men's World Championship. Kane won the tournament's MVP award and also led the entire tournament in scoring with 20 points (8G, 12A).
