First and foremost, a Happy Veterans Day. My grandfather served in World War II and one of my best friends is currently serving as the CO on a nuclear sub in the Pacific, and I have dozens of other friends who have served in every branch of the military. We get to wander around online and talk about sports because there are folks in uniform protecting our freedom to share insights, offer garbage takes and cheer/boo together. So thank you — today and every day. Here’s one of the anthem performances at the United Center that I saw in person that will stay in my mind forever.

“If this organization is going to move the way we want to move, they can’t just be NHL defensemen,” he said. “At least two of them are going to have to be good NHL defensemen. The rebuild goes as well as your top guys go. You had [Brent] Seabrook and [Duncan] Keith. You’re going to need a couple guys like that in the pond.”
Kevin Dean works closer with the Blackhawks' three rookie defensemen — Korchinski, Vlasic and Kaiser — than anyone else.
I sat down with Dean to discuss his feedback style, his observations and how he's helping each of them develop. New story: https://t.co/FLS7Ogq8IF— Ben Pope (@BenPopeCST) November 10, 2023
“No other Blackhawks defenseman has come close to [Alex] Vlasic’s defensive zone touches per 60. He’s at 38.618. Next is Kevin Korchinski at 31.494, then Connor Murphy at 29.038, Jarred Tinordi at 28.208, Wyatt Kaiser at 29.804, Seth Jones 25.445 and Nikita Zaitsev at 14.135.”
“[Korchinski’s] 13.2 denial percentage is second on the team. He’s also third in percentage in passes and chances allowed… [Korchinski is] leading the Blackhawks defensemen with 8.947 exits with possession per 60.”
