I'm sure all the players work out to 3 Doors Down too.

That would certainly contribute to them being poopty. Idk that it would be great workout music but not bad and certainly much better Superman song "Superman (Wish I Could Fly Like)", by the Kinks.

I'll have the spam,spam eggs and spam.

It doesn't have that much spam in it.

So Boqvist is #2 in the top-25 under 25 which would leave DeBrincat at #1.

1. DeBrincat (21)
2. Boqvist (19)
3. Dach (18)
4. Strome (22)
5. Mitchell (20)
6. Beaudin (19)
7. Kurashev (19)
8. Perlini (23)
9. Vlassic (18)
10. Nylander (21)

That's a pretty good group of under-25 prospects and 8 of them are 21 or younger.

Not bad and with some of the pedigreed vets leading the way, I think this team will be possibly competing for Cups again before too long.

The Athletic had them sitting at number 10 as far as prospect pipelines, predominantly based on the amount of prospects they think have an opportunity to make it to the NHL.

They didn't grade out any of their prospects as "elite" but Dach and Boqvist were considered "High-end" while Nylavendar and Kubalik graded out as "Very good".

They had Mitchell at the "Very good/legit bubble".

The following were rated "Legit NHL prospects" - Barratt, Vlasic, Beaudin, Aleksi Saarela and Nordgren.

"Legit/chance bubble" - Kurashev, Highmore, Carlsson, Kayumov, Lankinen, Antti Saarela, Teply and Gravel.

I think Chris Daughtry & Taylor Swift have Superman songs, also. For those lavender sniffers.

Superman's Dead- Our Lady Peace

Just read Markov is going to come back and play in NHL this year. Markov will play in NHL this season, agent says 40-year-old defenseman went to KHL in 2017 after 16 seasons with Canadiens. Article says he would do a one year deal. Any thoughts? One year is right up our alley with the young guys coming soon. I know he is a left handed shot, but never can have enough good d-men. Thoughts?

The whole 2010 team would have been on that list minus Hossa and Sharp.

Pass. He was good in his time but that time has passed. Think of Kimmo with the Hawks.

You're in Oakville, BB?

I lived there for years and both kids were born there.

You from the area originally?

Ouch

Thanks for the blogs, Tyler! Good thought processes.
Gotta think both Nashville and Winnipeg do not total as many points as last year. And the 'Hawks get more than last year, maybe even get on a real roll if the gel together really well.

Gonna do my best to check out the Traverse City tourney more than past years. Looks like the 'Hawks cupboard is no longer bare.

If you click on the roster on the Blackhawks website, it lists a roster with the expected players + prospects so I'm guessing that could be a glimpse of the training camp roster for later in September?

Looks like all the players that are signed to a professional contract. These will probably be at camp along with maybe some non contract invitees.

Cam's game against Tampa Bay... 7 goals with a .910% would have meant 78 shots he faced, which seems way too high, so had to look it up:

He did face an onslaught of 54 shots, let 5 in for a .907%. I remember watching that game, it did feel like little boys against men. Poor Cam... and he didn't complain afterwards.
