Just play a good 60 minute game and if you don't have the horses to win, so be it.
But make me want to watch, dammit. Not too much to ask, really. I hate being back in "the season is over already" mode similar to the 2000's.
(It ain't that bad of course since those teams were out of it in November...but still)
Hawks 5 Stars 2. I'm calling an urgent team playing balls out and walking all over these dicks.
Roussel will try to fight Debrinkat because he's Roussel. I doubt any of his teammates will help Brinksy, unfortunately. Maybe Toews so he can get concussed from a random punch.

Lose out. It's our only hope.

4-1 Stars
19 has been playing like someone who just wants to retire and rest on his accolades at this point.

Lose out. It's our only hope. I don't follow the draft or Juniors. Is there a McDavid or Kaner out there this year worth tanking over? |

Not a bad year to tank...Rasmus Dahlin, the consensus #1, is a Victor Hedman clone.
There are 5-6 elite prospects this year, including Brady Tkachuk, as well.

I was hoping for more like #4, or #1...And if 'we' couldn't get that Dahlin(not the older one), with 4 I'd be happy with Tkachuk. |

Hawks could use a top 5 pick for sure but I don't think they will sink low enough to have a reasonable amount of balls to get picked.
("Balls" Pun intended as a reflection of the current crop of players efforts...)

With people being scared by the impending snowstorm, plus the Hawks sucking balls, there's a chance the UC could be half full tonight.
If you do want to go the game, tickets right now can be had on stubhub for under $20. I know a lot of STHers who are taking a fucking bath right now on games.

So it only took 53 games, but Duncan Keith and Connor Murphy will finally play together tonight... The mastermind Joel Quenneville must think Murphy has improved enough by being forced to play on his off side most of the season, that he's ready for the top pairing!
Clownshoes.

Why try your big acquisition with Keith when you have Jordan Oesterle?

Murphy will never be ready for top pair minutes, but at least he gets to play on his RIGHT side (see what I did there?)
Hawks secondary ticket market has been dead all year...THE GRAVY TRAIN OF PAYING FOR YOUR STs BY SELLING SELECT GAMES IS OVER.

Hawks secondary ticket market has been dead all year...THE GRAVY TRAIN OF PAYING FOR YOUR STs BY SELLING SELECT GAMES IS OVER. Well, it would be nice to see that actually proven. Forgive me if I don't trust Q's judgement. He's been arguably their second best defenseman this season. Which, yeah, isn't saying much, but still. Merit says he should play with Keith, and he's the type of defenseman that SHOULD work well with Dunc. Anything is better than Seabrook playing 20+, and Oesterle leading all defensemen in TOI.... |
