Blackhawks fans believe Artyom Levshunov should've been sent to the AHL, not Ethan Del Mastro
Chicago Blackhawks fans quickly flooded the comments, judging management's decision to send down one of their better two-way defensemen in Ethan Del Mastro.
Artyom Levshunov, the Blackhawks' no. 2 overall pick in the 2024 entry draft, has been quite messy on the ice so far this NHL season and truly looks like he needs a few years of development before playing with the big dogs.
"You misspelled levshunov"
"Should've been Levshunov"
"Big mistake, losing one of the most dependable penalty killing D-man will not be a wise move"
While this move is under scrutiny, we must trust in Jeff Blashill and Kyle Davidson's judgement to bring Chicago's rich winning culture back under their power.
