Wings clogged up the blue line and defensive zone the first half of the game, but the Hawks broke through later.

Toews tied it 1-1 on a penalty shot after being hooked by Lidstrom on a breakaway.

Hossa tied it 2-2 starting on the right side boards, going across the middle and beating Filpula wide, and Seabrook got the game winner on a one-timer on a great pass from Kane.

Bertuzzi came looking for Carcillo after Carcillo decked him along the boards, and Daniel tagged him two good rights.

Great night for the Hawks, except on the powerplay (0 for 5).

I've never been a Carcillo fan, just not my kinda player. Although I understand his role with the Hawks. He's gotta be leading the Hawks with fights... Maybe Mayers is up there too. And 0-5 on powerplay? Geesh

Going to the Hawks - Oilers game tomorrow. Bought tickets to this one because I wanted to see 3 recent 1st round picks (Hall #1-2010, Nugent-Hopkins #1 2011 and Eberle #22 2010) on one line....the kids are pretty amazing.

That being said, I still hope the Hawks smoke 'em. :r

Just noticed the hockey thread!

I'm from Calgary. Haven't lived there for a while but follow the Flames when I can. Watched the Preds game when Jarome got 499. I am back to Calgary late Jan and kinda hoping I get to see 500 though I think he get's it before then.

Ice Hog, my gramps is a huge Blackhawks fan. Loved that they won the cup while he was still around. He'd been waiting a long time!

Glad to hear it, I started wondering if they would ever win it in my lifetime as well. Tell your Grandpa I said he has great taste in hockey teams.

Hope I am watching when Iginla gets #500.

I would bet 6 to 8, because he is a "repeat offender". If his knee is as bad as it looked coming off the ice, he might need 6 games anyway.

Re: NHL '11 - '12 Thread
 
Not a good hit. Very dangerous and dumb. The worse thing from his side is he slowed down to get behind him then sent him into the boards. Wonder if his knee got trashed. Be funny if they hold his suspension tilll after he recovers

Thought about holding his suspension, Mike, I guess I hope not. I know Gilbert didn't return, hope he is OK. I guess it's poetic justice that possibly Carcillo is hurt worse than his victim.

Thank dog December's over. Was a BAD month by the Wild. :( Went to the game on the 26th when Spurgeon got checked from behind. They had him strapped to a gurney on the way out of the arena, and the guy who hit him didn't get a suspension. Something tells me there will be some glovesdropped the next time they meet the Avs.

As they get guys back healthy, I think their fortunes will turn again, and that December will be an aberration, not a norm.

Well when you don't have Koivu, Setoguchi, Zidlicky, Bouchard and your two starting goalies take turns getting hurt, it's hard to keep playing at the level that they had been. We get Setoguchi back tonight, so hopefully we can start a run of being healthy and win some in a row here!

I am sure there would be some retribution....

IMO the pic doesn't exactly show the play, as Spurgeon checked up 4' from the boards with McLeod flying in behind him.

I'm watching, with maybe a peek here and there at the Wild game.

Eller had 4 goals for the Habs versus the Jets with 3:30 minutes left, including a penalty shot goal. And Pavelec is one of my fantasy goalies. :hn

7 games for Carcillo...between his injury and the suspension, he may be gone a long while. 66 grand is salary too.

Good news is the Hawks signed Andrew Shaw, who may fill the role even more effectively than Carcillo.

Something I have wondered a player is hurt and is suspended, but was injured on the job so he is eligible for workers comp which is or was 80% of pay after taxes at least in MA.
The law is the law so Carcillo still should get paid?

Wings pulled within 1 point of the Hawks, and two behind Vancouver (although both have played 2 less games than the nucks).

Stats are looking good too.

Wings 128 GF (tied 2nd most), 88 GA (3rd lowest) and the largest GF/GA margin at 40.
Hawks 128 GF, 111 GA
Nucks 134 GF (leads west), 99 GA
Sharks 105, 86 GA (tied for lowest)

Keep in mind Wings & Hawks have played 39 games, Nucks 41, and Sharks 36. I think these are the four best teams in the West. The Blues are not far back, but I'm not sure they can score enough goals to make it deep in the playoffs (39 GP, 99 GF, 86 GA).

I dunno about the Blues. They are tough, play good D and have 2 great goaltenders. That normally means good things in the playoffs.

True, but you still need to be able to put the puck in the net.

Carcillo will get paid while he is out injured, John....it is during the 7 game suspension that he forfeits salary.

I gotta agree with Christos, Mike, at this point I would put the Blues right in the mix with the Hawks, Wings, Nucks and Sharks.

I HATE the Canucks....that being said, the line of the Sedins and Burrows is out of control lately, best offensive line in the league the last month.

They did not look good in the 3rd against a bad team. It got a little nasty at the end. I am far from sold on these guys. I would not worry. To me the Sharks are far from out of the woods and could easily string together a series of losing games. From what I was told there have been a lot of hard practices and players are not in love with the coach.

That $hit is epic though. I like how he just keeps putting it back in his face because he knows he's going to take it.

Feel bad for the Flames. I thought they couldn't look worse then last night. Boy was I wrong. Watching the replay. There are a lot of bad goals. Irving was in net no puck control rebounds everywhere. That defense of the flames defined no hustle. They just stopped even skating.

Edit looks.like kipper went in and did no better. Love the Roku box with GCL.

I wasn't able to see much of the game since my daughter had a basketball game, but I did see the last five minutes (and the game highlights). JVR looks like he may finally be coming back around. Of course with Jagr out, being moved into some more opportunistic line combinations helps.
