Very reminiscent of the Hawks road teams way back when their road team hardly ever won. Go down early, come back and almost even it up, take a penalty midway through the third and fade away after that.
Those were dark years, and I think we're back there again.

Hawks are light years away from being Gretzky Oilers my point being that they will never win giving up 5 goals a game.

The bad news is that neither goalie did anything to solidify themselves as the starter. Give me some Lankinen on Sunday.

I thought they were better tonight...same score, but better compete level and a more even time of possession...but Jesus christ...those back breaking awful goals and brutal turnovers are pathetic.
Goaltending and defense...non existent

Last night I dreamt the Hawks won this game. Then I woke up and watched it. Delia looks worse than subban Nah. Delia was better. But he should leave his stick home next game, so he won't even think about playing the puck again. Hawks veterans played a very lazy game. Kane's defensive efforts on those Tampa rushes was even worse than usual. And Kampf was supposed to take Stamkos on the final goal. Anyway, it was a better game. Hawks played a close game in the first period, and for stretches in the second half. Kurashev did nothing, but I still don't miss Pirri. The lack of physical play in these two games is intolerable. Zadorov attempted one big hit, but that was it. Would it kill to dress some tougher players? You still lose. But at least the games could be worth watching. |

Do the Hawks have any tough players? The enforcer is currently on LTIR.

How do you feel about Suter as the Hawks #1C? He looked good in the first game, but a move up to the top line means he's getting awful matchups, and just couldn't quite compete at the level necessary.
It was:
DeBrincat - Suter - Kane
Kubalik - Strome - Kurashev
Janmark - Wallmark - Shaw
Highmore - Kampf - Carpenter
The second line was bad, and got outclassed. It was too tough for them. Kubalik is a weapon, but never got a chance, playing with those too. If the Lightning took out their top two lines, the Hawks forwards could match up pretty well, I feel. Hawks lack elite top guys.
The bottom six was okay in their roles. Enough to not lose games, at least. I think I like Wallmark. Why not try him with Kane at some point. He looks like he is good with the puck.
D-pairings were the same. Boqvist was the worst d-man out there again. But everyone got beat one point or another. Boqvist just looked like he never had a chance to even compete. Deer in headlights.

Hawks quickly find themselves in their rightful spot, at the bottom of the DISCOVER CENTRAL DIVISION.  |

Go Hawks...Gotta admit, Boqvist looks uncomfortable. Zadarov looks too slow to give a BIG hit. Delia was ok when not playing the puck. I thought Kurashev played ok, had a coupla chances. Could someone pass Kubalik the puck?? Hawks are playing like they only had a week of practice and no exhibition games..

The Hawks are fucked enough with a quasi #2 C on the top line. Putting a 3rd line C on the top line can't be an improvement.
