Corey Pronman ranks Blackhawks prospects high on under-22 NHL list

Following his earlier ranking of the Chicago Blackhawks as having the top under-23 pipeline, it was no surprise that several of their prospects made the cut. The Blackhawks were well-represented, with nine players appearing on the list.

Connor Bedard led the charge, ranking No. 1 overall in the "Elite NHL player" tier. Artyom Levshunov was also notable, placing 8th in the "Bubble elite NHL player and NHL All-Star" tier. Other notable Blackhawks prospects included Kevin Korchinski at 48th, Lukas Reichel at 101st, and Oliver Moore at 109th.

Pronman's assessments reflect the strong future potential for the Blackhawks, particularly as many of these players were drafted by General Manager Kyle Davidson over the past three years. While there are some surprises, such as the exclusion of Frank Nazar and the inclusion of Colton Dach at 148th, the overall picture is positive for Chicago. Rockford, home to many of these prospects, is shaping up to be a team to watch this season.
