I think Crawford has helped carry the team the last two years. He has helped mask a lot of defensive woes on this team. And based on the moves made this off-season, this is probably going to be his toughest challenge in his entire career. As rocky as the 2011 & 2012 teams were, you still had a solid top 3 for D. Today all they have is a legit #1 and then a questionable #3.

Seabrook blows.
Close the thread.

He cannot (and should not) be relied on to steal games with any degree of regularity. and this is where the problem is...this D corps may NEED a game-stealer on a regular basis. I hope not.

Edzo will do colour commentary. Despite the cancer and all. He's more of a gamer than Gord... Too soon? Hawks 5-1 We know what Dave Strader is getting for Christmas.......

Seems like Eddie's health is catching up to his career.

Seabrook blows. Close the thread. This was also by far the worst game by Rutta. Sharp & DeBrincat looked like minor leaguers, too.

Still trying to figure out what identity, or role, the 3rd line plays? If nothing else, it's a odd cast or combo of characters. Also, I still wonder how long the 'Cat' will last....every time he takes a good hit, and he's got nailed a couple of times, I swear I'm wondering if he's near dead. No doubt, he has great hands, but he just seems to 'float' around and further doesn't seem to be in tip-top shape. Sharp brings experience and he's not that slow....at least compared to Arty...who (along with Seabrook) is a plow horse speedwise.

Seems odd people don't remember how "tiny" Kane was back then too. Kane eats 2 steaks for every one that Toews doesn't.
