When the Chicago Blackhawks General Manager Kyle Davidson traded away forward Kirby Dach back at the 2022 NHL draft, many Blackhawks fans were understandably outraged, but some were okay with it.

The Blackhawks just drafted Dach 3rd overall back in the 2019 draft so it was definitely a head scratcher trading a way a 21 year-old that had so much potential, not to mention the size, strength and skill to be a top line center in the NHL.

Dach has flourished in Montreal, having the best season of his career stats wise. Dach also has a bit of a mean streak that Detroit Red Wings Andrew Copp learned first hand.

During Thursday night's game between the Wings and Canadiens, as soon as the puck dropped to start the 2nd period both Dach and Copp would drop their gloves.

However, Dach would hit Copp with that one-two Mayweather combo, dropping Copp instantly.
