2024 Draft

If the habs are targeting a forward at 5oa (which is likely unless Levchnunov is still there) and with demidov gone, Lidstrom is the likely target. Hughes wants to get bigger and lidstrom also has the skills to back it up. Is he another Dach? not sure, but having both is not that bad. One of them could just be moved to the wing (who ever is batter at faceoff can be the center).

A second line of Dach, lidstrom and Newyook would not be bad but Dach needs to show he can stay healthy. If he gets injured again, Lidstrom can take over center over Newyook.
I think Lindstrom's the likely pick if he's available.

If he's not there, that's where it would get interesting.
 
Hate to tell you this but I agree with the mock draft, I think Chicago goes D.
They could, but they have a system with enough of each that they should take BPA, and Demidov feels like as good of a Bedard running mate as you can find, i dont think they pass on that. Levshunov would also be acceptable if they go D
 
I get it but there's a size issue too. Bedard is already small and Demidov is average height. Hard to gauge because Chicago needs everything but I think they want their Victor Hedman.
