Injury
“A two-way center with exceptional hockey spirit. Dach is also a highly-skilled playwright who sees openings that most players do not. Despite his large stature, he is surprisingly playful and equipped with good hands and creativity.”
The Dutch have always been a strong player on both ends of the ice. The natural scoring touch he only adds around his game that the scouts were salivating over the 2019 NHL Entry Draft when the Blackhawks took him.
Contract
As Bowman and his staff were anticipating a winning season and a return to the playoffs, they also began to prepare for a financial future. He gave Jones an eight-year contract extension with a cap hit of $9.5 million. DeBrincat was due for another contract after the 2022–23 season, and would need something close to Jones’ deal. There were extensions to consider for Ken and Toes as well.
At the same time, he had to start thinking about what might cost Kirby Dacht a second contract, which would be after the 2021-22 season. He hadn’t flourished in the NHL yet, but was expected to start putting it together. He’ll have a healthy season and a full training camp to get ready. A year older and a year more experienced, Dachs will begin to resemble what the Blackhawks saw in his third draft in 2019. If that happened, the Blackhawks understood that they would have to pay accordingly.
Brother

But the big dachs made up for it on Colton’s Zoom call with the media.
As Colton was asked about the experience of being groomed by the same team as his brother, Kirby ran into the picture, grabbed Colton by the neck and shouted, “Woo! Hawks baby!”
