Prediction time.
With one more game left this year (which is at a stupid hour on New Year's Eve, so who's watching that), Hawks are 10th in the West.
However, they're only 2pts from 8th place.
Will they make the playoffs or not?

I went with yes. I definitely view them as a first round exit type team, but still a playoff team.
I do think this year's Hawks are worse than the last two seasons we've seen, but I also think those teams have underacheived in the playoffs as well. They had the talent necessary to make it to the second round. That step has been lost.

I said yes, but some of the missing players like 19, 20, need to resurrect themselves.

I voted no, contingent on when Crow comes back and if he can keep up his excellent play when he does return.

They don't look like a playoff team right now. And seriously, what's the point of making the playoffs if you know you're just gonna get swept in the 1st round?
A couple of trades could ignite the team maybe. Their puck management and overall playing with the puck is not what it used to be. Also results in too many losses of possession, and bad quality shots and 15 minute streaks of no scoring chances.
Kane is the only one who drives the play. That Toews line needs to be fixed. Toews and Saad are not good enough to win their matchups. They need a stud puckhandling winger.

Maybe a more appropriate poll would be...will the Hawks finish ahead of the Avs???

The Hawks aren't very good. That's a problem. The Hawks also don't have many players that they could sell due to their contracts. That's an even bigger problem that will bog down any rebuilding effort for awhile.
We got Stan Bowman'd.
