The Ultimate Debate: Ivan Demidov vs. Artyom Levshunov for the No. 2 Overall Pick by the Blackhawks
Chicago Blackhawks Face Tough Decision with No. 2 Overall Pick
The upcoming 2024 NHL Draft will see the Chicago Blackhawks holding the coveted No. 2 overall pick, with the spotlight on Ivan Demidov and Artyom Levshunov as potential choices.
Positional Dilemma
What adds intrigue to this decision is the contrasting positions of the two players. Demidov is an offensive forward, while Levshunov is a versatile defenseman, presenting a unique challenge for Chicago GM Kyle Davidson in selecting the next cornerstone player for the team.
Davidson’s long-standing philosophy of prioritizing the best available player remains unwavering. He emphasized the importance of ranking players based on merit rather than position during an interview on NBC Sports Chicago.
Lessons from History
Reflecting on past drafts, the 2015 NHL Draft serves as a cautionary tale. The Boston Bruins, faced with consecutive picks in the middl

Rebecca Bayich aims for another medal at the European Taekwondo Championships: “Comes with confidence, wants to raise the flag”
The taekwondo fighter, Rebecca Bayich, will open the European Championships tomorrow (Saturday) in Belgrade, the capital of Serbia, after winning three consecutive bronze medals in the last European Championships. Bayich, who competes up to 46 kg, is ranked fourth in the world ranking and second among the competitors in her weight in the championship.
“It’s not something that I relate to or give too much space to. I come to do my job,” Bayich says in an interview with ‘Davar’ ahead of the championship. “The ranking doesn’t matter, each battle is a battle in itself and can be one way or the other. I come with confidence following the medals I won at the European Championships, but in the competition it will be all from the beginning. Of course I want to win the gold medal, get on the podium and wave the flag.”
“I go up and do my best regardless of who comes up in front of me”
The only competitor who is ahead of her in the world ranking in the European Championship, is the Croatian Lena Stojkovic who won the World Championship and the European Championship twice in a row. Alongside her, the top competitors in the competition will be Emin Gugbakan from Turkey, who is ranked seventh in the world. Dina Furiones from Iran competing under the refugee team ranked ninth in the world and Phoenix Goodman from Britain ranked 16th in the world.
Are there any competitions you are preparing for in particular?
“On a personal level, there are competitors that I want to give back to. But not someone who is a challenge that I have to overcome and focus all my preparation on, that is not my goal. I go up and do my best regardless of who goes up in front of me. I lost in 2022 in the semi-finals to Turkey ( Amin Gugbakan) and it’s a good situation that I will meet her this time as well. So I know that this time I’m not going to let her win, I’m going to give her the lead over the last time.”
What do you think would be considered success in the competition?
“To bring myself and my abilities. Of course a medal and first place is my goal, but I also build on a process. I will give my all in this competition and even if I don’t do the best, then this championship will give me the lesson I need for the next world championship I mean I’ll give it my all, but it’s not the end and I’ll learn from it. I don’t come with the feeling that I’m winning or losing.”
Bayich (24) is 1.53 meters of strength, a big heart and endless energy. She brings a special style to her battles. Beich is known for her uncompromising offensive style. She attacks her opponents throughout the fight and uses her tremendous physical prowess to achieve victory against opponents who tire in front of her.

In the previous method that was used until Tokyo 2020, the fight was held in three rounds and the score was accumulated.

Brad Arthur insists Mitchell Moses is no guarantee to return from a foot injury next week as the struggling Eels slumped to another loss without their injured halfback.
Moses, who is in a race against time to return against Melbourne at Magic Round next week, might only have one game before NSW coach Michael Maguire sits down to pick his first State of Origin side, which is highly unlikely to include Penrith halfback Nathan Cleary.
Cleary aggravated a hamstring injury and couldn’t finish the Panthers’ win over the Bulldogs on Friday night.
Down the road, the need for Moses has never been more evident after a vastly improved Eels butchered a number of gilt-edged opportunities in a 30-14 loss to the Broncos at CommBank Stadium on Friday night.
But Moses’ return from a broken foot in time for
