Blackhawks 2026/27 season

[jersey cubs fan]

Korchinski finally gets a game and it’s paired with Rinzel against a tough Florida team that will forecheck the crap out of them. This could either be a told you so moment for Blashill or a big opportunity to earn regular playing time.

Korchinski may have just gotten an assist on opening goal

Our new not really #1 dman #1 dman still not in lineup tonight vs kings

 

korchinski is in again.
 

And knight is already starting bis 10th of 12 games. A 70 game pace that is unsustainable. Somebody is desperate for a win

Sounds like Davison is starting to shop for a "shoot-first, scoring wingers with size." My first thought is....uh-oh.

Oh yeah? Curious where that’s coming from. 
 

this team needs a solid RHD. I’m not sure what a shoot first scoring winger is in terms of attainable players. They don’t have cap room since they overpaid Kane and Byram by obscene amounts.

Frank Seravilli mentioned it during the game. 

I don't want a desperate GM making a desperate trade to help save his job.

Yeah, you’d think somebody like Nazar is at risk of being sent out if they are trading for anybody of consequence. Davidson and Blashill are desperate for offense. Frank plays a 200 foot game and could be an excellent defense first center. But he struggles to finish scoring opportunities. And he’s as small as half their roster. Nazar for some bigger offense first forward could happen but might not make senses

Larkin sitting tonight....won't play for the Wings anymore

[jersey cubs fan]

This team is apparently very bad 

[Wilson A2000]

Fire Davidson already

[17 Seconds]

might as well keep losing and force them to clean house

There’s so much smoke about the Blackhawks making a trade that I’d be shocked if we don’t see a new face in town by the time they return from their next road trip. Maybe nothing happens before the Avalanche game on Monday, but when they play Buffalo on 11/12 I’d bet something meaningful changes. 
 

it feels like Davidson may actually be willing to trade their own first round pick, maybe with only top 3/4/5 protection. They traded 4th this year of a guy they perceive as a #1 d. They could get something similar for their top pick while maintaining optionality for a guy that could be Landon DuPont if they win the lottery. Who? I don’t know but the next Matthew Knies is probably out there somewhere, maybe even the actual one. Knies hasn’t done anything in Columbus yet.

 

They could pretty much use anything. A real number 1 d would be ice, but any forwards with scoring ability + size would also fit. 
 

and they might as well consider the goalie situation. Knight is a fine #1 goalie, but he’s isn’t going to win them games on their own. Is there a contender still looking for a #1 goalie? Buffalo and Carolina were rumored to be in on Helleybuyck, would they want to get in on a more affordable Knight? 
 

they could be a team that facilitates a Dylan Larkin trade. 
 

something is going to happen soon.

See I think we’re back in “loss with positive vibes” territory. Like two years ago.

It is no longer a matter of it but when Blashill is relieved of his duties. The question is, will Davidson also be relieved of his duties at the same time?

Yes, Davidson doesn’t deserve to hire the next coach
