Byram is the real deal.
Don't be shocked if the Hawks take Turcotte or the russian

Early NHL mock draft: Six potential candidates for Blackhawks at No. 3 overall
The 2019 NHL Draft has a similar feel to last year’s draft. There’s no debate about which players are going No. 1 and 2: Jack Hughes and Kaapo Kakko. The No. 3 spot is where it gets interesting and could go in many different directions. Luckily for the Blackhawks, they’ll be the ones to decide...

Nice break down of the main options after the first two obvious picks

3rd isn’t a bad spot in this draft. Hughes will go number 1, but the Rangers could take the Russian given their history with drafting them. That leaves Kakko in the Hawks’ lap. If Hughes/Kakko go 1 and 2, I’d take Byram. Joker, Boqvist, Byram, Mitchell, Beaudin, etc. Byram and Joker lock down the first pair and this slots Boqvist on the 2nd where he can focus more on PP duties. Anyway, Byram makes the Hawks have the deepest and possible best stable of young defenders in the NHL. The 3 Cups were basically a result of the Keith, Seabrook, and Hammer. Everything else was ancillary. You build from the back end out not the other way.

Drafting Byram also gives Bowman the flexibility to flip Gus when his value will never be higher and when the Hawks really don’t need him long-term. At a cap hit of basically nothing, there is no reason why the Hawks can’t get another 1st rounder plus from a cap strapped team for Gus. Toronto comes to mind where they need inexpensive players while their cap is busted.

If we go with Byram we could put him with Seabrookzival to start as his 200ft game and speed could carry that pair. Let's face it Seabrookzival is going nowhere. Our D pairings could be without any other moves as
Keith Gus
Byram Seabrookzival
Joker Murphy
Forsling and Dahlstrom as the 7
Add in that we would have in the pipeline, and anyone of these guys if ready could push Joker or Murphy.
Mitchell
Kyrs
Boqvist
Beaudin
This would allow us to upgrade the Forward via F/A, or trades. Everything aboot Byram screams 200ft 2 way D-man with elite skating, and IQ.

It all went down hill for them when they decided not to keep Hossa and keep franzen instead. It worked out for us though lol. They haven’t been able to lure a top free agent since hossa. They definitely aren’t the juggernaut they once were

No, it honestly went all down hill when they got all whiney about their fans in the eastern time zone missing games on the left coast because they started at 10:00 their time and being moved into the eastern conference. There will also be a mourning time from the Joe to Little Caesars arena lol.
