Hawks tried real hard...Lankinen was still good...Liked Beaudin...Need another competent C. Would be interesting to see where they would be with Dach and Toews in the lineup. Same, better, worse? You’d think better, but... Probably better but without these two others are getting a chance and in the long run that will be a good thing. Kane seems to be stepping it up this week, looks like he's enjoying it again.

I finished watching the game. I like Mitchell more now that he's getting comfortable making plays. But Beaudin, I'm sorry but he is not at the necessary level yet. He's just struggling to survive out there. Teravainen is a pretty slick player. I remember those few shifts he got to play with Pat Kane. You could tell he was going to become a special player. And those Cup final games where he shined... damn. Remind me again, what did we get in return when Stan traded him to Carolina? How nice the Hawks get to play against Teuvo 8 times this season. Hawks goals this season seem to come after nifty passing plays. Now, that's nice, but I wouldn't mind at least a few dirty shit goals in between. It just seems like so much effort is put into each goal and so much has to go right in order for it to happen. Andrew Shaw is supposed to help with this but he is useless. Yes, I just complained the Hawks goals are too pretty. I want goals like what Trocheck scored in the third for the Hurricanes. On top of the Harlem Globetrotters passing plays, of course. Not in lieu of. I'll leave you with this picture I captioned, after Strome scored: Colliton: You're a legitimate top line center, Dylan! Way to go! Crawford: *whispering* I like that jerking motion you do with that bottle, Dylan.DeBrincat: Why can't I score any goals?Strome: Is that Crawford's finger I feel? Yowzah!Hagel: Marc Crawford is fucking disgusting. Soderberg: Why do I suck so much at hockey?

In the long run it would definitely be better for Dach to be playing some hockey games and developing as a player instead of sitting at home at age 19 for months on end. Prime development months, they are. Injuries like this that make you miss the bulk of the season (in an abbreviated season, no less) will limit his final potential. For Toews, it don't matter. He's already been squeezed for all he's worth, and then some.

I think Toews being able to win a faceoff or two when it counted would definitely help, if nothing else.

The difference in skill and speed between these 2 teams is absurd...also, tje difference in systems...Lankinen was all that stood between the Hawks and a 5 goal loss.

Mitchell has been ok.. hold judgement.
He looks better than bqvist.
Beaudin looked ok..
Hawks with dach n toews prob worth 4 points so far.

4 points hawks could technically say 1st or... in race. Think of the miss revenue.
Honestly thinking about 2018 with crawford hurt n goalie makes me angrier with each passing second. I would not be surprised toews is "sick" over it.
