Prediction: The Chicago #Blackhawks are very far from a Stanley Cup. 🏒 I had predicted back then in 2007 when I lived in Chicago that they would win a cup within 5 years. At that time, they just had 3 terrible season of 59, 65 and 71 points. They won their first of three Stanley Cups 🏆🏆🏆 in a decade within only 3 years. That prediction came true in a big way, 🏒 Now I don’t see them winning within the next 5 years. Sadly for Connor Bedard and the fans. 🏒 The reason is simple; in the last 50 years, a whole chunk of 50 years, of the #NHL, unless you find one I missed, no single team has won the Stanley with more than two undersized players (5'10") in their top 6. You can get away with two flanked by bigger guys, but playoffs are rough, grueling and with no mercy. 🏒 Right now the top 6 of the Chicago Blackhawks is jam-packed with smaller players: Roman Kantserov, Frank Nazar, and Patrick Kane. 🏒 You can even add Nick Lardis who even though he is 5'11", is rather feather light at 165lb. 🏒 When Connor Bedard comes back from his other injury, he will replace another 5'10" or less or add to the count being 5'10" himself. That could explain why the Chicago Blackhawks were interested in some of the Montreal Canadiens' bigger, tougher and pugilistic players. #Habs In all cases, I wish them luck, but eventually, they will have to address this issue otherwise my prediction will sadly become true.
