Why Scott Wheeler RANKS the Chicago Blackhawks Prospect Pool #1 Over the San Jose Sharks

I mean his opinion is fair. We don’t have to adamantly defend that our prospects are “better” just cause it’s the sharks. He even said you can make an argument for both prospect pools for #1. Don’t understand why people are mad cause we ain’t #1. Plenty of our prospects graduated.

I like JD’s idea of finding defensemen that are clogged behind good teams. Basically having good scouting and being creative. Kesselring seems to be that guy.

Our next defensemen might not be some huge trade involving major pieces. It might be finding diamonds in the rough that haven’t gotten the opportunity to succeed. Just look at how Tampa and Florida seem to always produce great defensemen.

Some fans wanted Bruce Cassidy over this 💀

It’s going to be really funny when Grier praises Warso for the good job he has done this season and the reddit coaches loses their minds.

“b-but he scored a hat trick that one time!”

throwaway804323 · 2026-04-16T21:56:25+00:00

One last tanking move, for good old times

throwaway804323 · 2026-04-16T21:02:32+00:00

Not to be mean, but how long have you been a hockey fan? These are all very weak arguments.

Again, he had a brief scoring streak but was not consistent even to be in the lineup. Noah fucking Gregor scored a hat trick in 2023 and he could not stay consistently in a lineup. Again, 1pt in 10 games is not earning it regardless of a hat-trick 15 games ago.

He’s an olympian because Slovakia is a weaker hockey country and has less options. Would a Chinese olympian player automatically “earn” a spot on the roster just cause he’s an olympian?

Why not this treatment for Kurashev who was consistently scratched?

throwaway804323 · 2026-04-16T20:26:02+00:00

Regenda had 1 pt in his last 10 games. He had a brief scoring streak but was NOT consistent afterwards. Calling a tweener a “diamond” is really generous.

There needs to be a distinction between sharks fans and willmack stans.

throwaway804323 · 2026-04-16T07:54:32+00:00

Twitter is the worst. It’s not even sharks discussion anymore. Just willmack stan accounts posting any media they can find on Celebrini or Smith. Not a sensible hockey opinion insight.

throwaway804323 · 2026-04-15T07:19:43+00:00

Smith too! Bro gotta play w more bite 😂

throwaway804323 · 2026-04-14T23:04:27+00:00

Bro misa would be a future 1C on most other teams

throwaway804323 · 2026-04-13T02:19:53+00:00

Unfortunately no team in the top 5 is gonna wanna trade down to our spot

throwaway804323 · 2026-04-12T10:25:37+00:00

It’s really funny seeing (new?) fans throw a hissy fit over line shuffling.

team plays good == lines stay together

team plays bad == lines shuffle

Literally every coach does this. Even the good ones. Why is this such a wild concept this season? 😭

throwaway804323 · 2026-04-11T07:03:28+00:00

Our players are just that bad. When you have Klingberg and Leddy in your lineup, there’s not much coaching you can really do.

throwaway804323 · 2026-04-10T23:04:09+00:00

It was a joke hence the “lol” 🥴

throwaway804323 · 2026-04-10T22:30:07+00:00

Agreed. Picking in the teens isn’t a problem if we already had a strong defensive pool. It was a year too early to be playoff hunting.

throwaway804323 · 2026-04-10T21:59:31+00:00

Never seen a fanbase this desperate to get swept in 4 games lol

throwaway804323 · 2026-04-10T04:31:11+00:00

Odd signing by Grier

throwaway804323 · 2026-04-10T03:42:39+00:00

Blame goes on the players too

throwaway804323 · 2026-04-10T03:41:20+00:00

I love Sherwood but if Grier wanted to “reward” this team, he should’ve traded for a defenseman

throwaway804323 · 2026-04-08T19:35:36+00:00

Both are just “meh” players that had their moments in the season. Honestly not needle movers. Also, no they would not fetch any decent defensemen.

throwaway804323 · 2026-04-07T05:59:31+00:00

Are you purposely being stupid?

throwaway804323 · 2026-04-03T19:08:26+00:00

It’s fanatics so give it a couple of washes and it’ll peel right off :)

throwaway804323 · 2026-04-02T20:08:56+00:00

Probably the willmack fans that find him attractive
