The Chicago Blackhawks selected Lukas Reichel with their first pick in the 2020 NHL Draft. This might have been a stretch from Stan Bowman.
Lukas Reichel was selected by the Chicago Blackhawks with the 17th overall selection in the draft. Chicago left two key forwards on the board in Connor Zary and Hendrix Lapierre to pick Reichel. Was this a blown pick or a draft steal?
Well, recently the Blackhawks have had some great success taking players from overseas and turning them into stars in the NHL.
