They just beat 3 of the worst road teams...and 2 of them went to extra time...and are still out of a playoff berth.
Yippee

It's really hard to make up ground at a certain point. This is the first time the Hawks have had to do that in many years.
Will make following the standings interesting through until the end...but it could be tough to watch.

Maybe it will be fun, though I'd rather they had a chance at winning it all...Or at least a President's Cup!

I do think there's something to be said about winning in regulation vs winning in OT or shootout.
I love watching 3v3 OT, and prefer it to a tiebreaker over something like the shootout, but it's an entirely different sport from the 5v5 game.
Instead of the tiebreaker being ROW (Regulation/Overtime Wins) it should be RWO (Regulation Wins Only)

This team doesn't run my life. My point is, 2 pts are 2 pts. There is no ranking system for how impressive a victory is.

And that last sentence points to the problem that's being outlined.
"2 points are 2 points" is something a team that's fighting for a chance to make the playoffs will say, which is sadly what the Hawks are now.

I just caught this game ( a week behind, go mexico) Why are the hawks carting around 2 extra d men ? Can osterle/kempty not be sent down ? Seems stunting to leave them not playing. Feels like this is the best way to arrange the top 6, idk if that's a compliment to Q, or an insult to the team. Crawford has been lights out. Kudos to conky. Poor toews you make sharp look not so bad. I know he wins draws but, he had 4? minutes of power play time. The hawks on the advantage have not looked so helpless since that vrbata cat was rocking the wrist shots from the the corner on the hawks power play... Also osterle, get out of kopeckys number before hossa wonders out on the ice looking for his soulmate. G.f.y. maybe I'll watch the jets game before Xmas.
