Thanks for this write-up Black Raven. I'm in favor of the Hawks drafting a C. I think the best thing about taking Cozens, Turcotte or Dach is that they don't have to come in and make the 1st line.. or 2nd. My highest expectation is more production on the 3rd line. Depth, skill and size down the center of the ice is always a good thing.

I'm torn. What's harder to get, a 1st line center or a #1 defenseman? Hawks were able to get a 2nd line center in a trade. Getting a legit top pair guy seems very difficult other than through the draft. Much depends, perhaps, on what the Hawks really think of the young defensemen in their system.
