The Chicago Blackhawks have the third overall pick. This comes from the 2025 Draft Lottery pushing them back one spot. It is an important asset to the organization.
With this selection, Chicago has many intriguing options —if they decide to keep it instead of trading it away.
“I do think they want to be active on the trade market,” Seravalli said. “I do think the number 3 overall pick is in play.”
There is a lot to figure out before the draft begins on June 27th. Davidson has done a great job drafting since becoming the full-time general manager of the Blackhawks, so he has earned some trust when it comes to evaluating the entry draft. If he feels that there is more value to trading the selection, he will go should that road with confidence.
