Ejdsell is ready for the NHL. He has a terrific shot and is good at using his size.
But he badly needs a nickname. I can never get that name right.

This is probably getting way ahead of ourselves, but it may then make sense for Ejdsell to pair with Schmaltz/Kane, and leave Saad with Toews. Schmaltz/Kane need a sniper and assuming Ejdsell can skate with that line.

Suddenly he is an NHL-ready sniper? Ummmm...ok?

Suddenly he is an NHL-ready sniper? Ummmm...ok? I said that already during the AHL playoffs. He is ready. The Hawks also need a player like him.

His skating is the question mark.

His skating is the question mark. That's true. But as long as he's mobile enough to get to the areas where he can do damage, it's bearable. It's not like Alex DeBrincat is a speedster either, but that's just not his game. Speed is the most overrated ability there is.

actually it really isnt...the league has gone to a speed game over all else today
Hawks used to be one of the fasest teams in the league...they are now one of the lowest...coincidence?

It's not like Alex DeBrincat is a speedster either, but that's just not his game. Speed is the most overrated ability there is. I didn't say speed. I said skating. DeBrincat may not be a speedster, but he is a fantastic skater. Extremely strong on his skates, great edgework, extremely agile and shifty. Edjsell is just not a very good skater. By any definition. If he can improve his skating, he has all the other tools to be a good NHL player.
