With their win last night, Colorado move ahead of Chicago, dropping the Hawks into the basement of the division.
Any idea when the last time this occurred, at the midway point of the season?

They were a first place team when they entered the playoffs last April. What a turnaround.

Somewhere, Bill Wirtz is smiling. Time to take the team off local television and raise ticket prices.

This board might get rejuvenated once all the winning is done.
Dynasties and 20-game point streaks don't really leave much to debate.

Think this article fits in here: chicago.suntimes.com/sports/blackhawks-mailbag-mediocrity-has-fans-playing-the-blame-game/amp/Lazerus is probably the only beat writer I pay much attention to anymore. But this mailbag is bullshit. He says its dumb to want Q fired. It's dumb to want Stan fired. People should instead be blaming the players who are underperforming. ...Of course, outside of calling out Panik, he won't say who else is underperforming. But these guys are all doing well: Kane, Toews, Crawford, Bouma, Wingels, Schmaltz, Debrincat, Anisimov, all 8 defensemen... So I guess the reason the Hawks are last in the division is all Panik's fault?

Even if this team was firing on all cylinders, they still aren't that good! This roster simply doesn't have the talent required to be a playoff team.

The truth of the matter is that if you can slap together a team like Vegas overnight and have them be a top team in the NHL, Stan Bowman needs to resign immediately for the mess that is currently the Blackhawks.
