What are the Blackhawks getting in No. 67 pick Nick Lardis?
The speedy winger saw his numbers take off after a midseason trade to Hamilton.
Stop me if you've heard this a million times in the last two years, but the Blackhawks drafted an undersized winger with offensive upside who can absolutely burn.
Lardis' stock really took off during his time with the Hamilton Bulldogs and was cemented with an impressive showing for Team Canada in the U-18 World Juniors.
