CWSGuy406 Posted October 21, 2007 Share Posted October 21, 2007 f***ing fantastic shift from Samsonov/Adams/Burish there, kept the puck in the Toronto zone for a minute-and-a-half. Awesome. Bury 'em here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CWSGuy406 Posted October 21, 2007 Share Posted October 21, 2007 Awesome win, playing back-to-back nights and not getting to Toronto until early this morning. Puck movement was impressive today, particularly on that Keith goal. I thought Samsonov had his best game as a Hawk -- he's really good when he's got the puck. His vision isn't great and he's got to start scoring, but tonight he was very good. Another two point night for Kane and he very easily could've added a goal or two. This is absolutely fantastic. Great, great win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This has been a really pleasant surprise thus far - I thought they couldn't be worse than last year, but their play so far has FAR exceeded anything I would have expected.

DBAHO Posted October 21, 2007 Share Posted October 21, 2007 Yeah I saw that Sammy had 7 shots on net, so I figured it was probably his best game as a Hawk thus far. Really seems like things are starting to click from an offensive standpoint, and the lines are starting to develop some chemistry. Williams had a 4 point night, excellent game for him.

RockRaines Posted October 21, 2007 Share Posted October 21, 2007 For the first time in many years, the team actually looks like its having fun, and enjoying playing hockey with each other. The young guns are adding more than their talent to this team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's something that makes this all the more enjoyable. Someone even lays a finger on Kane, there's multiple guys behind Kane who will come to Kane's defense. It's great having Koci, but Wizniewski -- despite his size -- is willing to take a pounding just to stick up for his team, get the team some energy, whatever it is (and I'm selling Wiz short here -- he gets his shots in and rarely gets "pounded", as I put it). That one little guy who was giving s*** to Kane (not Antropov) -- when he skated by the Hawks' bench, I don't think Koci took his eyes off of him. They're a whole bowl of fun to watch.

SoxFan1 Posted October 21, 2007 Share Posted October 21, 2007 I've been following the Hawks closely this year and I am really excited about what I see. Kane and Toews are the real deal and I cannot wait to see this team with Havlat at full strength. I haven't gotten this excited about hockey in a long time. This may sound dumb, I hope not, but what happened to Seabrook, Skille, and Cam Barker? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RockRaines Posted October 21, 2007 Share Posted October 21, 2007 They need to bring Skille back up to ensure the dev of all their young guys. This is obviously going to be a team run by Kane and Toews, so lets bring up all the young talent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is obviously going to be a team run by Kane and Toews, so lets bring up all the young talent. I can only judge by what I saw, but Skille had a pretty bad game against the Wolves on Friday night. If that's how he's played so far, he should not be brought up yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ditto guys like Barker, Hjarmlsson (sp), Brouwer and Bolland -- we have several guys on the roster who don't figure to be here beyond this season. It's nice to have this issue of depth. If one of our non-Toews/Kane guys goes down, we shouldn't miss too much of a beat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was listening to the game online and watching via my DVR so I could sync up the commentary. I think it was in the 3rd, but either way there was a scrum in front of the Hawks net, and someone was pushing and shoving Kane. John and Troy had an exchange about it and John said, “I wondered what’s going to happen the first time someone makes a run at Kane or Toews?” Troy jumped in and said “There’s no place for that in the game, but you’d see 19 guys off that bench and 3 from the press box on the ice so fast...” Everyone on this team is willing to stand up for these kids. Right after the camera cut to Koci on the bench and like you said he was watching the guy the whole way back to the bench. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kalapse Posted October 22, 2007 Share Posted October 22, 2007 Apparently Hawks execs met today with Comcast execs to get some home games on TV. At least that's what I heard on the Score. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the very least, I'm sure they can fit a handful of games on CSN+ (CLTV). Or, what would be even better would be to get a couple of games on WGN -- get the Blackhawks out there to as many people as possible. Also... Theys' is startin' to recognize!

EvilJester99 Posted October 23, 2007 Share Posted October 23, 2007 "According to Spectorstraderumors and hockeybuzz.com the Chicago Blackhawks are willing to part ways with prospect defenceman Brent Seabrook in order to obtain a second line centre or a promising young centre. The teams beleived to be interested are Edmonton, Philadelphia, Ottawa, and Minnesota. hockeybuzz claims to have this from an extremely solid source. It is also speculated that this will go fast or not at all, and that three other teams (that are unknown) are also putting together mega packages. Seen this on hockeytraderumors.com Now I would be a little disappointed if the Hawks trade Seabrook. Yes he has struggled but I think they would be better keeping him.. of course it would depend on what they could get in return as well though.

I think the Hawks would be making a mistake trading away Brooks, but if the package was right, shipping off Seabrook, acquiring a scoring punch, then coming back and signing Markov could be a really solid move. EDIT: Looking at the page, the article you posted was published in late February. Ahhh nice catch....wonder why that was still up on that page. I obviously didn't pay any attention to that....
