Eaton vs Montero should be interesting..

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Jul 7, 2015 -> 10:19 PM) Not really point of the reunion. Celebrate the team who brought a world series to Chicago. Bingo. We're honoring the team. I'd rather not clap at all then boo.

I'll be there. No way in hell I'm missing it.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 4, 2015 -> 04:04 PM) About the best robbery I have seen at the Cell Haha. Wouldn't go that far. I will say it was about the most surprising robbery I have seen though.

Thank you Avi. Sox win!

AVI!!!

‏@MarkLazerus 3m3 minutes ago Andrew Desjardins' AAV is a mere $800,000. Per his agent, he "took far less to stay. Loves it there." #Blackhawks

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Jul 3, 2015 -> 10:37 AM) Hawks resign Desjardins to 2 years 800K AAV. Love it. Great role player. Really fit in here. Only 800K?! Great deal. He definitely took a pay cut to stay here. He was damn solid for us.

In other news, Blues got bent over dealing Oshie. One playoff choker dealt for another. At least Oshie is solid in the regular season though.

QUOTE (LDF @ Jul 2, 2015 -> 11:12 AM) they needed a player like him for an option to replace the dman the hawks traded a couple of days ago., i would like to see the salary. He is Rockford depth. Nothing more.

QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Jun 30, 2015 -> 06:19 PM) He is the key to the deal. He averaged around 13 minutes a game yet was second on the team with a +12 . Smallish excellent 2 way player who fits the Hawks mold and isn't afraid to mix it up in the corners. His production with the BJ's was better than it was in the AHL. Surround him with talent and he produces. I hope Hossa shows him the ropes as a fellow countrymen. As for Saad vs Keith, Rock, you can't compare the two contracts. Keith was signed under the old CBA and it's cap circumvention. If that's the case, might as well ask why Sharp is paid more too and Seabrook when he gets his new deal. Keith has one of the best contracts in the game.

Anisimov has serious concussion issues too. I like the Hawks depth now but losing Saad is just bad.

I will say this. Dano is a really intriguing young player.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Jun 30, 2015 -> 04:44 PM) Hes simply not worth that cost to the Hawks. He's 22 years old and still getting better. He should be still part of this core. Bickell/Sharp/Versteeg people might blame, but this one is on Kane and Toews deals though.

f***ing terrible Bowman. And LOL at Morin coming back.

Anyone else following this Mike Richards buy out, now "termination" of his contract? Looks like the Kings are trying to get out of that 10 year salary cap hit.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jun 29, 2015 -> 12:44 PM) David Rundblad re-signed to a 2-year deal, $1 million AAV. Meh. I miss that puke emotion we use to have here. Stan hasn't had a very good offseason to start.

Boston has 13th, 14th and 15th picks now. They can move up to #3 or they can give out of those to us for Sharp. I still can't believe they traded Hamilton for that. Calgary's top 4 is very, very good now.

Me and another poster or two have been saying it since the offseason to sell high on him. He is now the definition of one year too late.

QUOTE (LDF @ Jun 26, 2015 -> 08:22 AM) re bold, i am not sure who you are referring Sharp or Bickell. if it is Bickell, yeah i think this board, esp me will miss a player who is making 4 mil a yr and who talked about a 4 hit a game..... yeah, right. if it Sharp, i agree, he will be missed, i like what he brings to the game and he is a threat. granted, last season wasn't a good yr for him, but he is still a threat. the opposing team will need to keep that in the back of their mind when facing the hawks. those are the little things that a players bring to the game. Pretty obvious I meant Sharp since I said I hope Bickell is gone long before him. He wasn't great this past season, but he was injured alot, played on the third line mostly, had his worst shooting percentage in his career, and still put up 40+ points.

I hope Bickell + are long gone before Sharp. He's going to be missed alot more than people think. Plus, I still would like to see the Hawks have insane depth at forward once again.

QUOTE (GreenSox @ Jun 25, 2015 -> 10:10 PM) 2 years ago Jaye was hyped. 1 year ago he fell off the cliff. This year he's born again hard. He's finally figured out AA. And it's great to see. I've been keeping an eye on him.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jun 25, 2015 -> 09:56 AM) Banner gets raised Wednesday October 7 vs. the Rangers. Blackhawks 2015-16 schedule Eh... I wonder what will be running through Kevin Hayes mind.

This is just fun bad right now.
