The Blackhawks under-25 player pool is starting to surface at the pro level. We’ve already touched on four players that have graduated or departed from Second City Hockey’s 2019-20 mid-season Top 25 Under 25 rankings, so we’ll focus on eligible players for the upcoming list. The age cutoff is Oct. 1, 2020.
There are four spots up for grabs, and some new faces will push the lower tier players out. The Blackhawks have added 14 players to the eligibility pool: Matej Chalupa (22), Slava Demin (20), Wyatt Kalynuk (23), Brad Morrison (23), Cam Morrison (22), Pius Suter (24) and eight more from the 2020 NHL Draft.
