The Chicago Blackhawks continue to focus on adding size and long-term potential to their prospect pool, selecting towering forward Mason West with the 29th overall pick in the 2025 NHL Draft!
West, a massive 6’6″, 207-pound right-shot forward from Edina High School and the Fargo Force (USHL), is an intriguing dual-sport athlete now fully committed to hockey, but will play his final season of high school football in Minnesota before heading to the USHL. West brings a strong physical presence and offensive ability, but it could be a long timeline for him to be in Chicago.

Share him with the Bears. How could we pass on Spence?
Ironic that Frondell is the runt of our picks today.
go BIG or go home !!
How does athleticism translate? Said that about spellacy and he kinda sucked last year in far inferior league
Good stuff 👏
He's an August 2007 birthday so one of the youngest guys in the draft. I watched a bunch of highlights and what stood out was his fluid skating – especially at 6'6" / 215lbs and still only 17.
We 100% needed size I'm happy with the pick.
Mason has the potential to be a very good player. He moves better than any other big guy in the 1st round.
Very confusing to me ….we probably would have gotten him and 34….maybe even at 62?! But why did it cost a 5th also to move up just 5 spots
As a Wild fan I’m pissed, I wanted us to take him with our pick at #52. He was projected to go around the 50 range. I swear the Blackhawks did this just to c***block the Wild. I’m absolutely pissed. He was the one guy I was hoping we’d get in this draft
