The Chicago Blackhawks did not win the NHL Draft Lottery, but drafting 11th overall shouldn’t be an issue for the team.
The Chicago Blackhawks last time drafting 11th overall was in 2008 when the team drafted Kyle Beach. Beach ended up not playing a single game in the NHL. So hopefully this coming draft will be better for the team.
