The Athletic's Corey Pronman recently released his rankings of NHL prospect pipelines, and the Chicago Blackhawks have secured the top spot.

With a system that boasts premium talent and impressive depth, Blackhawks fans have much to be excited about. Headlining the pipeline are Connor Bedard, a potential star center, and Artyom Levshunov, a promising defenseman. Pronman notes that while Chicago might need a few more high draft picks to fully bolster its lineup, the foundation for a future contender is clearly being built.
Pronman identifies 17 Blackhawks prospects who could realistically develop into legitimate NHL players, and he also includes several others with a chance to make the league. One notable graduate from this list is Alex Vlasic, whose progression only strengthens the overall depth of Chicago's system.
Key Rankings:
Connor Bedard, C
Artyom Levshunov, RHD
Kevin Korchinski, LHD
Lukas Reichel, W
Sacha Boisvert, C
Oliver Moore, C
Sam Rinzel, RHD
Roman Kantserov, RW
Colton Dach, C/W
Ethan Del Mastro, LHD
Pronman's rankings stirred some debate among fans, particularly with Lukas Reichel being ranked higher than Frank Nazar, despite Reichel not being as highly regarded in Chicago anymore. Additionally, Sacha Boisvert's position ahead of Oliver Moore is contingent on how players adjust to the NHL, particularly regarding their roles and physical play.
The "Chance to Play" category includes names like Adam Gajan, Ryan Greene, and Nick Lardis. Lardis is a notable goal-scorer who could make an impact with added size. Isaak Phillips also earned a mention and was praised for his development in the AHL, even if he's not quite NHL-ready yet.
