The Chicago Blackhawks’ young defensive prospect pool is well-stocked. With players like Gustav Forsling, Henri Jokiharju, Adam Boqvist and Nicolas Beaudin, the Hawks are going to have quite an impressive wave of talent, hopefully, coming to the NHL. Another one of those young standouts is Ian Mitchell, one of Chicago’s four horsemen as a defenseman taken with the team’s first four picks in the last two NHL drafts. Mitchell jumped up eight spots from last year in our Top 25 Under 25 series after a stellar freshman campaign with the Pioneers.
