Fans of the Chicago Blackhawks are expressing their concerns and suggesting a move for Lukas Reichel and Arvid Söderblom.
Many believe that sending them down to the Rockford IceHogs in the AHL could help them regain confidence as both players seem to be struggling right now.
Reichel and Söderblom have been facing challenges on the ice, and fans think a stint in the minor league could give them a chance to find their game and build confidence in a less pressure-filled environment.
Supporters of this idea feel that this move might be crucial in helping the players get back on track and contribute more effectively when they return to the Blackhawks.
While sending players down isn't uncommon, it remains to be seen if the Blackhawks' management will listen to the fans. The team's decision will likely depend on factors like the overall performance assessment of the players and the long-term development strategy.
As the discussion unfolds among Blackhawks fans, the hashtag #Blackhawks has become a central point for them to share opinions and talk about the potential impact of sending Reichel and Söderblom to the AHL. The outcome of this discussion might influence the team's decisions as they navigate the challenges of the ongoing season.
