Blackhawks should make waiver claim on Josh Ho-Sang

Josh Ho-Sang was drafted 28th overall in the 2014 NHL Entry Draft after being a heralded prospect for years. There were even years, back when they were pre-teens, Ho-Sang was projected to be picked ahead of Connor McDavid. Since his selection, however, Ho-Sang has had a much different path than McDavid.

Ho-Sang, now 23, has only played 53 NHL games, but has collected seven goals and 24 points in that time span. During his longest NHL stretch in 2017-18, Ho-Sang picked up 12 points in 22 games. This is someone who realistically could make an impact at the NHL level, and who scored 43 points in 56 AHL games last season (more than Alex Nylander).
