The Chicago Blackhawks have been criticized by many for their recent moves made by general manager Kyle Davidson, but you also have to look at the Chicago Blackhawks' past management that left Kyle Davidson a mess.
That is Stan Bowman, who you are likely already well-aware of.
Bowman mistreated several players, and failed to properly develop many players such as Chicago Blackhawks' 3rd overall pick Kirby Dach. The 6-foot-4 kid 18 year old Dach was thrown into the NHL at a very young age with no minor league time with the Rockford Ice Hogs.
Dach played 64 games with the Blackhawks before Stan Bowman came to realization that Dach was not fit to play in the NHL, and wouldn't be for quite some time. Well, Bowman decided to play Dach for 3 games in the AHL... that is all.
Dach never had time to bloom, develop or learn the fundamentals of the NHL due to the Blackhawks poor management and Patrick Kane recently called it out:
Patrick Kane on Kirby Dach's recent surge:
"I'm not surprised. What is he, 21? 22? It takes some time sometimes, and he was probably rushed into the league. And playing fourth-line minutes, getting sat out games, it's probably not the best thing for your development."
Kane continued commenting on Dach, and stated the following:
Kane on Dach, continued: "It's not surprising that all of a sudden he's starting to play a lot of minutes and playing in a good position and he's producing. Happy for him."
You have to wonder, is Bowman did things properly, where would the Blackhawks be now? Likely in a much better spot, where Patrick Kane and Jonathan Toews would actually want to stay.
