OUR FIRST CHRISTMAS PRESENT IS HERE
Welcome up to the varsity, Frankie Nazar.
What a great way to start the weekend.
Something to be excited about.
I have been banging the drum for Nazar to come up for a little while now.
Not because I want something to be interested in with the Blackhawks, but because he’s earned it.
Frank Nazar has been absolutely KILLING the American Hockey League.
Production, pace, attitude, he’s shown he has it all.
And when a young player does virtually everything right you’re gonna wanna reward him.
Sports are supposed to be a meritocracy.
He’s earned a shot to prove it at the highest level.
He’s been flying and his confidence is seemingly through the roof right now.
He tried this later in the game
The account described it as finesse.
I would describe it as a “fuck you” pop in of play.
Speed, control, skill, and attacking right down main street.
Lowering the shoulder and creating a chance out of nowhere.
That is something the Blackhawks desperately need.
And…it’s fun.
This is the fun era of the rebuild.
Expectations are obviously low still, but Bedard scoring last night.
Korchinski looking pretty good in his recent call-up.
The young stallions are coming.
This is like when the Cubs pressed go on their rebuild officially in 2015.
Baez, Bryant, Russell, Schwarber, Soler, and the in a blink the Cubs were good.
Who knows how long Nazar and Korchinski will be up in the NHL.
