Puck Chatter - Summer Check In
Sunday, 12 July, 2026
It’s ninety degrees outside and all the hockey minds have retreated to cottage till September... so, of course it would be an appropriate time for Al Cimaglia and I to reconvene for some Chicago Blackhawks and puck chatter.Over 90 minutes, Al and I discussed Connor Bedard’s shoulder surgery and its impact on the 2026-27 Blackhawks. There’s also that minor detail of Bedard needing to finalize what is likely to be the richest contract in franchise history.We also analyze the Bowen Byram acquisition and fit with his new team. Al will miss Louis Crevier.Tyler Johnson recently gave an interview and commented on the Hawks rebuild and his experience in it - we have thoughts.Patrick Kane hasn’t ruled out a return to the Blackhawks - more interesting, it seems Kyle Davidson hasn’t ruled it out himself. We discuss the possibility of Kane and the Blackhawks reuniting and why.All this and plenty more. Thanks for listening. We’ll get it together again before the season begins for sure.On X/Twitter:@AlCimaglia@ChrisBlock This is a public episode.
