The Hawks just couldn't get the puck to the net tonight. Toews had a great chance late 3rd period but missed wide.

Kovalchuk epic shoutout fail. He is not having a good season after signing that big contract.

Hawks looks rotten tonight, but the beers were cold.

The B's Win 7-4. 5 Goals in the third period. It's good to see they did not play well in this game the first two periods.
To see them come out and just kill the Pens was nice.
They look good this year, I know it's early but They are playing with a little more fire this year than they showed all of last year.

I'm concerned with their lack of scoring early in the game. This is the 3rd game that they can't find their groove until the third. Their passes have been sloopy, still have to dump and chase.....

Don't get me wrong I am glad they won, but this style of play won't work all time.

These next couple of games should really be a tough test of who this team really is. 3 games in 4 nights

There's never a dull moment at the Garden when the Habs are in town.

That was an EPIC FAIL.

They played the same way they did on Sunday. Argh!! I can't believe all the wide open shots that they missed.

SmokeyJoe · 11-11-2010, 11:37 AM

Heading to the 'Canes game tonight... Flyers in town - former 'Canes Coach Laviolette back in Raleigh.

Hoping for a good game.

icehog3 · 11-11-2010, 11:40 AM

Have fun Joe, hope they have a better effort than my Hawks did last night. Thank goodness for beer.

I really didn't think the Hawks had a bad game last night. They totally dominated the first period outshoiting the coyotes 14-4. They slowed down in the second and third a bit but still controlled most of the play, othen then the 30 second brain fart where the Coyotes scored their two goals.

From listening to the post game I think Hawks fans expections are a little bit lofty. If I didnt know better I would think I was in Toronto listening to the Leafs post game show.

Some notes I did take:
-Not enough traffic in front of the net
-John Scott should not be in a Hawks Uniform.
-Jack Skille was the best player on the ice with line three being the best in the game.

I guess I got spoiled last year with 60 minutes of tape-to-tape passing, Matt. The Hawks breakout, and their passing, is a shell of what it was last season. Bickell needs to be back with the Icehogs and Jeremy Morin needs to be in Chicago. Duncan Keith has had more giveaways in 18 games this year than he had in 82 last year. I will give you the shutdown D in the first last night, but there are so many issues they have compared to the last 2 seasons that I am not even sure where they start. I am also pretty convinced Toews has an injury that he is not disclosing, he just isn't the JT I have seen the last two years, and I know it isn't a matter of heart or desire.

Skille has great speed and great heart, his hands just need to ctach up with his feet if he is ever going to succeed at this level.

Rant off.

It is hard for me to comment on the stuff last year and I agree that some of the passing was questionable.

As for Morin, I would say that there is pretty much zero chance of seeing him in Chicago to fill a thrid or fourth line role. The Hawks want him to play as much as he can and he will get that with the Hogs.

Frankly, Matt, I agree...I would like to see Morin on the first or second line, as I think he has the most offensive upside after 4 others (Toews, Kane, Hossa, Sharp).

Caught some of the first period but missed the rest; Wings looked good. Then again, they were playing the Oilers. But, winning 8 of their last 10 has them tied with the Blues for first.

GreekGodX · 11-12-2010, 08:22 AM

Holy scoring last night! A lot of games were very high scoring and blowouts.

Sled Dog · 11-12-2010, 11:52 AM

Newbie here but I can't resist jumping into an NHL discussion... being from Buffalo though the Sabres aren't much to talk about.

Icehog..... how has Campbell been for the hawks.... I know the Sabres PP has sucked ever since he left

Certainly not worth 7 MIL a year.

Hey, they got the first Cup I have seen in my lifetime, so I love all 20 of them from last year.

Ahbroody · 11-12-2010, 12:09 PM

All Swedish no Finnish. Then again that's the sharks right now. I took a 5-3 to score a damn goal last night. Coach actually pulled the first line on one pp to send a message. They scored one pp goal in like 18 pp. Dan Boyle was the only player who played last night getting the pp goal and a shoutout goal. Without him the Sharks would have allowed the isles to break their 8 game losing streak.

The radio broadcast was comedy. They couldn't get demers. For the between period interview so Jaime Baker impersonated demers. The canned answers were epic. Made me laugh because 3/4 of the time you know what players are going to say.
