Lukas Reichel was the Chicago Blackhawks 2020 first-round draft pick.

Now it seems like Reichel is getting ready to make the jump to the NHL with the Blackhawks this season, but is that the best move for him? The NHL is a grueling league. We have watched a handful of players make the jump to the NHL over the past few seasons, none as quickly as Kirby Dach and Adam Boqvist, and it seems like Reichel might be the next on that list.

Reichel is 19 years old, and spent the last year playing for Eisbären Berlin in the DELin 38 games he put up 27 points.
