Who will the Chicago Blackhawks select in the 2020 NHL Draft?
The Chicago Blackhawks are in a weird spot right now. They made it to the NHL’s return to play bubble by the skin of their teeth. Although they had no business being anywhere near the playoffs based on the regular season standings, they defeated the Edmonton Oilers in the play-in round to advance to the playoffs. They were defeated by the Vegas Golden Knights in the first round. They showed some fight but now they have to fix a lot of issues in their organization. It starts with the 2020 NHL Draft.
The NHL Draft is going to take place on October 6th so it is right around the corner. Now that the Stanley Cup Final between the Tampa Bay Lightning and Dallas Stars is over, a lot of draft talk is starting to take place amongst the other 28 fanbases. Based on their playoff finish, the Blackhawks are going to make the 17th overall pick. There are going to be some really good players available as this is a very deep draft.
