I think we will see a much better effort than the philly game, but the Hawks will only grab a point in a 4-3 SO loss.

Time for the new Coach to do something different. Sit someone? change some lines? Get some life into this Gutless group. Season isn't lost yet. If he doesn't then what was the point of axing Q?

Didn't they just lose against this team?

What changes? Until the Hawks fix the special teams, in particular, the PP, they are doomed. Canes 4-1.
The fail of the PP is revealing. It is not so much affected by salary cap issues. It is manned by the 'best' Hawks players and even then with a man advantage (as we know) it totally sucks. Here, the Hawks play a mind numbing perimeter game, with little movement, endless passing, no net front presence screening the goalie, they don't aggressively attack the net. And, they do it over, and over, and over .... and it fails, fails fails. It's insanity.
What to conclude? Perhaps, the best players, the players manning the aren't that good (any more)? Are the Hawks using the best player mix? If not, then who? Or, perhaps the scheme is flawed. Do ya think?
With this roster, the best, albeit slim, chance to make the playoffs, would be to excel on the special units. This should be where Colliton could gain ground. Start here and fix this damn thing.

That's the worst second line in the league. The only way they'll score is if the other team employs Karpovtsev. A live Karpovtsev, mind you, because the current dead one can't score in his own net.

Pay no attention to the order. That's obviously line 3. I think they will get the bulk of the defensive duties.

I didn't think Debrincat was a 3rd liner?
