Kubalik Nylander In

I can’t see boqvist not making the team

I think if there was room, he'd make it. Mike be best to season for a year in AHL and slot into a Top 4 role next year.

I see him in Rockford. He just turned 19 years old and while I'm excited he's a Blackhawk, he still needs a lot of work defensively. Just continue his progression 1 step at a time. If he's crushing it in the AHL then we can make a decision, but let's make sure he can do that first.

I think it's the best course of action. Shore up his defensive play, hit the weight room, win the Calder in 2021.

This is very accurate. Kubalik will get the nod. Perlini, Nylander, Sikura, Wedin will all rotate in and out of the lineup until one or two prevail. The key is who needs to clear waivers and Perlini and Wedin do which would suggest they have a leg up.
