No Versteeg. Please do this. Please. If Versteeg sits, then who will gain the blue line, reverse ice to create room, create no room in doing so and then get stripped of the puck for an odd man rush going the other way? Who? Tell me Q, who will take up that role? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

South Sider 493 Posted April 27, 2015 I just hope that Timonen and Roszival aren't too much of a defensive liability. It sure would be nice to have a healthy TVR, or another young up and coming defense (ala Hjalmmer in the 2010 playoffs). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Seems like such a waste to have the passing of Kane with Bickell and Richards. Kane needs a sniper to work with. But I guess they are more interested in Kane shooting and Bickell being traffic in front. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CaliSoxFanViaSWside 3,636 Posted April 28, 2015 QUOTE (Chilihead90 @ Apr 25, 2015 -> 06:30 PM) Ruutu and Daze were my favorite players as a kid. And Alexei Zhamnov. I was really good at EA Sports NHL games back in the day . I could beat anyone using the Hawks. Zhamnov and Daze were my big scorers . Or maybe that was when you could sort of cheat at the game and make the players better than they were by increasing their shot accuracy and other skills.

South Sider 493 Posted April 28, 2015 8:30 local starts are completely asinine. This is BS for everyone who has to be up early for work. I was willing to give the NHL a pass in the first round, but there are now less games. Complete douchebaggery. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

EDIT: sorry I don't have twitter and couldn't embed exactly who said that, I just copied from hfboards It was Elliotte Friedman. He's a sniper with a hell of a wrister, but he's another small forward. 5'9" 170-ish. Not saying that's bad, just saying. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
South Sider 493 Posted April 28, 2015 QUOTE (Tony82087 @ Apr 28, 2015 -> 05:02 PM) It was from Elliotte Friedman. https://twitter.com/FriedgeHNIC/status/593163583623561216 Would be a very nice, and creative get for the Hawks, especially with a lot of holes going to be open next season. Thank you! I agree wholeheartedly. I'm glad to see the Hawks aren't shying away from Russian hockey players. If they do sign him, it'll be exciting to see how he translates into the NHL. It could also make the loss of Sharp sting a little less as far as the top 6 is concerned. Unless you think Sharp is done, in which case, you should be even happier.

CanOfCorn 7 Posted April 28, 2015 QUOTE (Tony82087 @ Apr 28, 2015 -> 05:06 PM) On that note, it's funny to read the national opinion of the Blackhawks. It's very easy to get caught up in the bubble of following the team every day, and to be frustrated with this and that, but they really have turned into the Red Wings of this generation. They are now the most veteran team in the playoffs in terms of experience, are seemingly always in the hunt for the Cup, and even when they have to "start over", it's more of a reload than a re-tool. I'm not saying everything is perfect, but we are going to look back on this team in 20 years and shake our head at how good of a run they really had. Agreed. They won't be AS good next year, but I don't see a humongous drop-off. They are still gonna be a tough out as long as they have this core. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
