I wouldn't be shocked if they take Byram. If they do take Kakko, Hawks have alot of options they can go (Podkolzin, Byram, Turcotte, Cozens, Dach, etc).

Same here, it was quite the range of emotions. I figured we had no chance to move up, then got so excited, then disappointed it wasn't a top 2 pick. Would have been awesome to get Hughes or Kaako, but moving up from 12 to 3 at zero cost is great. And we jumped Colorado which was nice.in the long run.

Is this a guy who could plug and play with the Hawks right away and improve their defense, or he is more of an offensive guy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is not on that Dahlin tier, but he's been compared to a LH Drew Doughty. I'll take that. Edited April 10, 2019 by SoxAce Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoxAce Posted April 10, 2019 Share Posted April 10, 2019 It really depends if the Hawks feel they've drafted enough defensemen over the past couple of years (much more RH though). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiliIrishHammock24 Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 If we can't get a nearly NHL-ready guy at #3, then I hope they trade the pick for a top 4 D-man. Hawks are playing with house money from this lottery and NEED to use this window of Kane/Toews/Keith/Crawford. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joejoedairy Posted April 17, 2019 Share Posted April 17, 2019 I hate when a team is clearly the best team in the league and then "chokes" in the playoffs. Oh well, NHL playoffs are always a crapshoot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh well, NHL playoffs are always a crapshoot Which is what makes the NHL so great. I can't stand the NBA, because for the most part the season and the playoffs are just a formality. 85-90% of the time, you could hand out the Larry O'Brien trophy before one regular season game has been played, and you'd be correct. What is the point of that and how in the hell is it even entertaining? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChiliIrishHammock24 Posted May 20, 2019 Share Posted May 20, 2019 FUCK, I just realized that the Stanley Cup Final will be in town when I am in Boston the 28th-2nd. They are playing at home while I'm at the Red Sox game. The town should be absolutely packed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the ultimate worst case scenario. I despise everything about Boston but you are not a true Hawks fan if you are rooting for fucking St. Louis.

Exactly right Ace, I can never root to end the misery of Blues fans but fuck if I hate having to root for Boston to do it. Hoping it goes 7 and Boston wins to at least maximize the pain for Blues fans. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
