The Hawks always seem to have one late-season game on the road where they just get throttled. I remember being there in 2010 when Huet gave up 8 goals against Columbus in late March. In 2011, Dallas blanked them 5-0 on St. Patty's Day. Colorado thumped 'em 6-2 in March 2013. The being that there is precedence for the Hawks looking like a bunch of ECHL rejects. I don't think there's any reason to be concerned about what happened on Saturday night. The rebound won't be easy, though, as the Hawks face a late surging Tampa team that is still very much alive in the East's wild card race. This game means everything to the Lightning, and no one around these parts needs to be reminded about what Tampa is capable of doing when it's clicking. Two points tonight damn near close the door on Minnesota's already dim hopes in winning the division.

LET'S GO HAWKS!!

Lines could be interesting to some:

Schmaltz-Toews-Panik
Panarin-Kero-Kane
Jurco-Kruger-Hossa
Hayden-Desjardins-Tootoo

Hartman apparently getting scratched and that could be a punishment for the penalties he took on Saturday night.

Andrei Vasilevskiy in net for Tampa. Darling gets the nod for the Hawks.

Hopefully they didn't hit the nudie bars again late last night.

Time for Kero to step it up big.

BTW, that Schmaltz gif is bloody perfect based on his last game.

Here's hoping the team doesn't completely crumble tonight like a Japanese reactor in an earthquake.

Good test to see if Hayden can bring something in the bottom 6 on the worst linemates role

Did they give Kruger a pat on the back :thinking: (and extra dollars for the stripper bars?) :smug2:

Think Tampa will come out flying to start the 2nd period. If the Hawks can weather that initial storm, I think they'll be okay in this one.
