Hawks' camp competition fierce
With many players contesting for few spots, it's crunch time

....When the season begins Oct. 7 against the Stars in Dallas, the Hawks will carry 22 or 23 players, likely the latter number with winger Daniel Carcillo suspended the first two games of the season and forward Patrick Sharp completing his recovery from an emergency appendectomy.

The probable breakdown will be two goaltenders, eight defensemen and 13 forwards.

Forwards

Locks (12): Bryan Bickell (25), Dave Bolland (25), Andrew Brunette (38), Carcillo (26), Michael Frolik (23), Marian Hossa (32), Patrick Kane (22), Jamal Mayers (36), Rostislav Olesz (25), Sharp (29), Viktor Stalberg (25), Jonathan Toews (21).

In the mix: Marcus Kruger (21) cut 10/3, Brandon Pirri (20) cut 10/3, Brandon Saad (18), Ben Smith (23).

Likely out: Rob Klinkhammer(25) cut 9/29, Jeremy Morin (20) cut 10/4, Philippe Paradis (20).

Outlook: Kruger and Smith appear to be the favorites after playing significant roles for the Hawks down the stretch last season.....

Defensemen

Locks (8): Niklas Hjalmarsson (24), Duncan Keith (28), Nick Leddy (20), Sami Lepisto (26), Steve Montador (31), Sean O'Donnell (39), John Scott (28), Brent Seabrook (26).

Likely out: Dylan Olsen (20) cut 10/3.

Outlook: The eight locks all have significant NHL experience and, barring injury, will open the season on the roster. Olsen, a first-round draft pick (28th overall) in 2009, is getting a long look and is gaining experience as the ninth defenseman in camp.

Goaltenders

Lock (1): Corey Crawford (26).

In the mix: Ray Emery (28), Alexander Salak (24) cut 10/3.

Outlook: The battle between Emery and Salak appears pretty even..
