Ryan Donato has become a key contributor to the team’s offense. He achieved a personal milestone by recording his first NHL hat trick in a game against the Vegas Golden Knights. Despite his three goals, the Blackhawks fell 5–3 in that matchup. Donato effectively plays both center and wing positions. His offensive instincts, quick shot release, and ability to create scoring opportunities have made him a valuable asset to the Blackhawks. His experience and leadership have been instrumental in mentoring younger players on the team.

More term mid money like 6y 4mil
Will he ever have a year this good again?
Tied with Mathews & Forsberg in goals. More than McDavid, Eichel & Crosby.
What’s wrong with a 3 year 5.25 MNMC ?
If he gets to 30 goals some Gm might throw 5 million a year for 4 years at him good for him he set for LIFE dont want the Hawks to do that and yes not my money but want them to be spend smart I would give him 3.5 for 3 years I think he is good for 18 goals a year !!!
Donato deserves better than this. He's one of the only players on this team that gives a crap.
Also seems like a guy that if you give a a great 3-4 year deal. Hes injured for 1/2 that deal.
Donato is a much better player than AA radysh foligno Dickinson and kurashev. Those guys were just tap in merchants most of donato goals are directly cause of him and he also sets up a lot of goals
no way you’re comparing donato to radysh AA and Dickinson plus those guys put up 35 points donato put up 60 it’s not even close. He’s way better than any of the bums u mentioned who had 1 good year
You don't spend future dollars on past performance. There's no track record of him producing at this level and there's little reason to believe he'll recreate this season in the future. He seems like a great guy and his scoring this year has been fun to watch but somebody is going to spend stupid money on him, hopefully Kyle Davidson doesn't let it be him.
Donato is almost emerging as a Patrick Sharp type of a player.. (their style of play not entirely the same I know but in terms of energy and impact and desire to win reminds me of Sharpie) also Sharp had a couple of 20-30+ point-seasons before emerging as a top contributor on the team. Neither way, I love that type of competitor on my team 🔥🔥🔥
So help me if we don’t keep this man

This team can’t afford to lose guys who can actually put it in the net! Donato probably knows that and will look to cash in.
