I'll take the better player, prospect or not.. At this point, is Morin really a prospect? I think it's pretty clear he can play a regular shift in the NHL, and would be a regular third liner on a LOT of teams.</p>

Sure it was. Morin's success can only help the Blackhawks.


I'll still take a proven NHL player over a prospect all day long.</p>

How are the prospects supposed to prove themselves without getting playing time at the NHL level?</p>

I guess that depends on your definition. Morin will be back in Rockford when Bickell comes back, though.


3rd liner on a lot of teams? Based on what?

So all prospects should stay in the AHL?</p>

So every 7-8 games when Morin gets an assist, that's going to prove your point?

Pretty much because that's about how often Q has played Morin. Every 7 or 8 games. When he does play, he looks good.  Just like tonight. Again, he's in a tough position because of the Versteeg trade, it pretty much solidified the top 9 for a couple years.  As much as I'd like to see him get his chance, if Q was going to continually scratch him in favor of Brookbank, then I'm glad Bowman got Versteeg. Because that's flat out ridiculous, I don't care how many wins or Cups a coach has.</p>

Agree with all of this.  I just don't see where Morin is going to fit.</p>


 </p>


Morin might be better than Versteeg, or Bickell, or Shaw, or any of them.</p>


 </p>


But he isn't right now and the Blackhawks have Stanley Cups to win.  </p>

Honestly, I'd rather see him on the fourth line than Bollig.  I just don't see what Bollig brings to the table that Morin isn't better at, at this point.  I will give Bollig credit, he has improved leaps and bounds this year, but I'd still take a Morin-Kruger-Smith line over Bollig-Kruger-Smith.</p>

Like I've said if these are the biggest concerns this team has, start the parade planning now.</p>


 </p>


Will be nice to see Raanta get a full game here tomorrow night.  THIS is the biggest concern of this team, as to allow CC to get a few games off here and there.</p>

I can see them trading for a back up goalie at some point if Raanta isn't up to the task.   I have no clue who would even be available or unsigned.   Khabby seems done at this point.</p>

 Raanta will be so good when he gets his backup chances there will be a goalie controversy.  :whistle:</p>

Nothing bad to say about this one at all.  Awesome effort by everyone.  Shut down a decent O and Lt the other team up.</p>

Good effort all around; onto Cal-Gary.</p>
