TBs nicknames for their players and lines confuse me so much. How many different names can you have for something.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jun 3, 2015 -> 08:54 PM) Tampa is gonna have to open it up a little and that should help the Hawks. They played not to lose and it cost them. Completely puckered up and gave that game back to the Hawks.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jun 3, 2015 -> 07:29 AM) There haven't been many top coaches from the college ranks who could succeed equally well in the NBA. Wooden Jr. /Stevens with the Celtics and Larry Brown immediately come to mind. Lon Kruger wins everywhere but in the pros. P.J. Carlesimo had moderate pro success after Seton Hall but is mostly remembered today as the coach Latrell Sprewell choked. For every example like that, there are five or ten Pitinos or Caliparis. http://abc7chicago.com/sports/college-coac...ts-them/762899/ There haven't been many top NBA coaches from that huge pool of NBA retreads either.

QUOTE (shipps @ Jun 2, 2015 -> 10:50 AM) This is kind of what I tried to explain to her but she is super paranoid about it. Thats one of the main reasons I bought a digital thermometer, my wife is super paranoid about chicken being done. I always show her when its taken off the grill.

QUOTE (farmteam @ Jun 2, 2015 -> 08:08 AM) It's one of those things where the slo-mo made it look a lot worse than it actually was. Real time it wasn't a kicking motion. It looked like he definitely wanted to kick the puck to his stick to me.

The Beer shop is serving exit strategy's beer now.

QUOTE (bmags @ Jun 1, 2015 -> 04:16 PM) For some quick Garpax hate: -Remember how Taj was so important to the future of the team that we forced ourselves into keeping him in the Carmelo hunt and then now are looking to trade him at his lowest value in 3 years? Depends on what camp you are in. Many people would say GarPax valued him at the correct level but Thibs ran him into the ground thus diminishing his value.

QUOTE (South Sider @ Jun 1, 2015 -> 01:21 PM) I'd show up in my Toews winter classic sweater. AT least its not red. That is so clown of TB though. I wish I had the Hull pre sale code for when tickets go on sale tomorrow morning. Probably by the time the general public gets to buy them, they will be nearly sold out and the website will be running like a turtle. It says clothing so I would just bring a huge Hawks flag.

QUOTE (Jerksticks @ May 30, 2015 -> 02:14 AM) Mercy of the heavens...i can't wait. And Tex, i don't understand the mix and how you stuff bacon in the jalapeno. Sounds delish tho! I like to mix Chorizo with cheddar and béchamel, stuff a jalapeno half and wrap it in bacon.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jun 1, 2015 -> 12:15 PM) That was for Jamal Mayers, who had been on the team for 2 years. Given how short Timonen was here and little he contributed, I'm not convinced his name will be on there if he doesn't play a Finals game. Since the Hawks made the Finals, the Timonen trade will now cost them two second round draft picks. I think they put his name on there, or at least give him first hoist after Toews. I'd assume it would go Captain-Kimmo-Richie

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jun 1, 2015 -> 10:25 AM) It sounded like he should be available by the middle of the series, but who knows if they will just throw him in the fire after not having played in so long and being so young. Then again, I'd be scared of the Lightning's speed vs. Timonen, so maybe TVR would be the next man up. After the game, Q's quote was "He will be fine". That's about the most detailed injury update you will get in the playoffs unless someone is 100% out for the playoffs Pretty sure Kimo is on the bench unless we are ahead 3 games to zero. The D play was so much better once he was gone.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ May 30, 2015 -> 10:17 PM) He really irritated Toews early in the series, but then Toews just shrugged him off and started doing his thing Toews remembered how much better of a player he is.

Q was crucial when it counted. Kept Vermette and TT in the lineup and removed Kimo. His line changes on the road were masterful.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ May 30, 2015 -> 09:50 PM) Good question. Looks like he just caught Qs wrath.

They spent so much time talking about Kesler shutting down Toews. How'd that work out? Kesler has become Dave Bolland. Unskilled plug.

That was an easy game 7. I think the east is weak so I believe we are playing at a higher level right now.

Winning the hitting battle never wins the cup. And either does Kesler

QUOTE (Soxfest @ May 30, 2015 -> 08:40 PM) Hawks 4-0 ....................Anderson................Anderson That was as meaty a rebound as it gets.

Love the replay of the slash as the goal was being scored.

Perry just punched Crawford. They are so frustrated.

Don't be afraid to give us a power play. Those were some pretty obvious holds. Keep grinding boys.

One of the best kept secrets in chicago is that Lakeview is one of the most dangerous areas of the city.

Nice win.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ May 29, 2015 -> 11:13 PM) If Soto doesn't start tomorrow I riot. Get him back on the roids He literally does almost everything better than Flowes.

.276 .330 .830 vs Hou is Soto.
