The real dorkchop himself
We got ourselves a late one. Hump day gonna be a bitch for some.
I have watched the Knights, and they can look atrocious for stretches at a time. They are still new to each other, they have very little firepower but so far James Neal and Fleury have emotionally put the team on their shoulders and said follow us.
There is no reason to lose this game, imo. We are the worst team for them other than our penchant for black nights in vegas. Our firepower, stay out of box, 2 way hockey should expose them.
Their record is a miracle. Emotion has been incredible, and it will be tonight, but our team has too much skill, too much execution of a system, and too many weapons for the way they built their expansion for the future.
Yes they can defend. And Fleury. And they have heart right now while they can being fresh. I fully expect the Blackhawks to usher in the reality that their season will be.
5-1 Blackhawks. I will only be happy with two points.
