Blackhawks prospect updates: Nick Lardis' prolific scoring unfazed by OHL-to-AHL jump

the thing is, i think lardis is gonna be super good in the nhl, not just because of his scoring skills, but also 'cause he's got that confidence and competitiveness that makes him a leader on the ice 🤩🏒
 
I don’t usually comment but... I think it’s crazy how small Nick Lardis is 🤯, like 5-11?! He's already putting up these huge numbers in the AHL and people are saying he's got a good shot at making the NHL. But yeah, his size is definitely gonna be a challenge when he gets called up. I don't know if I'd be too worried about it though, because he seems like he's got that drive and competitiveness to make it work. It'll be interesting to see how he handles it. 🤔
 
Lardis is like a hockey version of a hot dog 🌭 - he's always getting points, but can you handle the toppings? I mean, 71 goals last season was insane! The kid's got skills for days, but that size thing is gonna be a problem when he finally makes it to the NHL. Maybe they'll have to give him some extra training on how not to get picked up by bigger players 🤣
 
Lardis is killin' it in Rockford, but it's only a matter of time before size becomes a issue 🤔. He needs to get some weight on those bones ASAP so he can hang with the big boys 👊. Still, his confidence and compete level are impressive. Nightingale knows what he's talkin' about, Lardis just needs to keep makin' those shots and playin' smart defense ⚡️.
 
I think it's awesome to see Nick Lardis killing it in the AHL 🤩, but yeah, I can imagine size is gonna be a thing when he gets to the NHL, you feel? 5'11" and 185 pounds is like, tiny compared to those other guys. I wish him all the best though, 'cause if anyone's got the determination to make it happen, it's Nick 🙌.

As for Ethan Del Mastro, I'm a bit worried about him, but at the same time, it's great that he's still bringing some magic on the ice ⚡️. Jared Nightingale seems like a straight shooter though, and I trust his opinion. Maybe they can find a way to make it work in the NHL? 🤔

Drew Commesso and Stanislav Berezhnoy are like, the coolest goalie duo ever 😎! And Aidan Thompson is finally figuring things out – yessss! But Sam Savoie needs to step up his forechecking game ⚽️. I'm rooting for all of these guys, though, 'cause they're making us proud as Blackhawks fans 🐦💪
