These people doing pregame analysis and interviews are frozen. Lmao, none of their faces are moving

Odd man rush Kane to Versteeg makes it 3-0 Hawks in the 2nd period at Soldier Field. NBC is setting back the televising of hockey 25 years with their far away high up views . Can't see anything but players skating around .Can't see the puck at all. I don't know if its because of snow and regullar camera angles aren't working, but its pissing me off.

That goal by Toews was special. That is highlight reel material.

 

The extra move by Kane to free up the tap in by Versteeg was special too.

Toews having a great game also assisted on Sharp's goal. Kane with 2 off the post.

Seabrook looks like he forgot what end he was at.

Yeah, those were some impressive hockey plays by those two. They help make up for the rest of the awful hockey we've seen due to the conditions.

 

Hopefully Hossa's injury is not serious, maybe his back just tightened up from the cold weather.

62, 921 witnesses to Blackhawk destruction of Pens. Soldier Field officially holds 61,500.

Versteeg, first player to score at United Center, Wrigley Field and Soldier Field. Pretty cool for him.

Gotta say it was cold and snowy but it was a great time. State of Illinois figured there was no need to plow the dan Ryan. Chicago all clear.

Leave it to Vancouver to host the first indoor outdoor hockey game. I still can't believe they didn't give Luongo the start.

Pirri traded to Florida

Pirri traded to Florida

 

For a 3rd round pick in 2014 and a 5th in 2016. I'm happy for the kid. Had the pleasure of meeting him and Kevin Hayes last year during the Hawks cup finals. Great guy, and hope he succeeds with Florida. Good for him he'll have some familiar faces to play with. (Jayes, Olsen) He'll be severely missed with the Hogs that's for sure. A shame that Morin is stuck too. He's another guy who should be in the NHL. (especially over Bickell)

Probably a sign the Hawks aren't getting any of substance at the break. If they were, Pirri probably would have been a part of teh deal.

I'm wondering if their "big" move will be bringing Teuvo Teravainen to the States, he is tearing it up in Finland.

I can see that. Bowman was quoted earlier in the year if he didn't have the commitment to Jokerit, Hawks might of brought him over then. He could follow the Kruger path for sure.

Yes. It's really weird that people would steal things.

No, it's weird that people are able to steal things from an NHL locker room, and a giant set of pads at that.

Well it's a good thing they have an elite goalie locked up to such a market level contract.
