There is a lot of different routes the Chicago Blackhawks could take with their draft pick. I know we are getting into hypotheticals but isn’t that what right now is all about for a team out of the playoff picture?
Chicago could opt to trade away their draft pick this spring if they wanted to compete for the Playoffs, but honestly, that wouldn’t do much to help the team. If Chicago opts to trade away their draft pick it does not guarantee a playoff position, and this roster is just already too thin.
Instead, I believe the Blackhawks should take a look at their roster and see what holes they could fix through the draft.
