The Chicago Blackhawks only had a 15% chance of keeping their first-round draft pick in the 2022 NHL Draft on Tuesday, but the ping pong balls did not favor them, as that selection will head to the Columbus Blue Jackets.
The Blackhawks own their pick in the second round, and also have an additional selection from the Minnesota Wild as part of the Marc Andre-Fleury trade.
The Blackhawks do still have three picks in the third round, including a selection from the Edmonton Oilers. That pick could become a second-round selection if the Oilers reach the Stanley Cup Final, and if Duncan Keith is among the Oilers’ top four defensemen in terms of average time on ice during the first three rounds of the playoffs.
Finally, the Blackhawks acquired a third round pick from the Vegas Golden Knights as part of a three-way trade with Vegas and the San Jose Sharks. The Blackhawks acquired two draft picks, including a 2021 second-rounder they used on Colton Dach.
