Be sure to keep it here at The Hockey Writers for all the latest news and updates on these and more events as the offseason unfolds! But it took a few seconds for the goal to be confirmed, because the puck got stuck in the upper netting and never dropped to the ice. He’s known for his developmental abilities, and could be an excellent asset and transition guy for the rest of the new coaching staff. So, what about King? According to The Athletic, the Blackhawks are open to King joining Richardson’s staff; as long as Richardson is amenable to the idea. He already has a relationship with the players and is well-liked in the locker room. The goal for me is to not take for granted those five [second- and third-round] picks. You have to shoot for the stars. From 2012 to 2018, the Blackhawks only have a 21% success rate with picks who have make it to the NHL. The league-wide average is 38%. The discrepancy is even worse with their second-round picks. Just last week the Blackhawks released a statement announcing changes to their hockey operations team. Mike Doneghey is the Blackhawks’ Director of Amateur Scouting, and he and his staff attended the NHL Scouting Combine earlier this month. We’ve got five picks between 38 and 96, and odds are at least three of them are here.” He further goes on to say these picks, “…could define us in the future, and we’re excited for it.” The offseason is upon us, and the Blackhawks’ brass are busy preparing for the 2022 NHL Draft, along with the free agency period.

By the end of my time with them — six years later — I appreciated their competitiveness and team-first attitude. In 2011, Daniel captured the Art Ross Trophy with 104 points (41-63) and the Ted Lindsay Award as most outstanding player as voted by his peers. In 2010, Henrik won the Art Ross Trophy as scoring champion with 112 points (29-83) and the Hart Trophy as most valuable player. That meant everything to the Swedish twins. After Daniel scored 20 goals as a rookie, he didn’t return to that plateau for four seasons. We’re most proud that we got the most out of our talent and that’s from trying to get better every day.” The Sedins always knew when it was time.
