    B-Hawks 2023-2024 Season Thread of Bedard

    Yup. This roster wasn't strong going into the year and the plethora of injuries just made matters worse, but it was to be expected and it's okay to suck this year. I said a while back, the only thing that matters this year is the young guys' development, especially Bedard, who is meeting if not...

    Yeah I'd say our opinions are pretty much aligned, although he seems to dislike more than me. I'm a little more forgiving, but I agree, it's your typical unoriginal streaming movie that's blah at best if not sucks outright.

    Not sure that's accurate. A snapshot can be performed with any part of the stick (toe), not just the heel. Wrist shot is when the puck stays on the blade through the entire motion. Snapshot is when the puck leaves the blade just before it's released.

    I'm laughing with you by the way, not at you. I liked this movie a little better simply because I felt it was a little more subtle with its themes. I also liked the whole idea of renting a place, and the main owners coming back, and what you'd do in that scenario. It was a bit Hitchcockian.

    It's funny you mentioned fast forwarding for this -- I almost did that like 15-20 minutes in, but I didn't. That opening scene and those initial minutes are quite rough, especially with Julia Roberts, who I never liked from an acting standpoint. The writing also is kind of pretentious in that...

    Ah, a post with actual substance, thanks Kotl! Glad the Hawks were able to overcome the atrocious officiating last night. I've really been impressed with Mrazek; if he keeps it up, maybe they'll be some suitors for him at the deadline. He had a softie for Winnipeg's lone goal, but other than...

    Nice seeing Bickell in the pre-game. I didn't watch the Hawk Cast with him, because the first time I watched that, it was extremely stupid; but he was good with Boyle.

    I still like seeing them win, I was rooting for one last night. Mrazek was insane. Reichel was great. Blackwell made the most of his call-up, loved that monstrous check on MacKinnon at the end of the game. I thought the Hawks had no chance going into this game, especially with their blue line...

    This was a backhand saucer pass. Through 3 guys on top of it.

    Hey buddy, this isn't a "gotcha" post, but I had to post it as I immediately thought of this when I saw it. I hope people realize how insane this is to do, even though Bedard makes it look like nothing.

    Completely agree with the bolded. Shame about Granato, best wishes to him.

    It's hard as hell to actually "come back" (i.e. keep playing) after any hip surgery. He got the less-crazy surgery, but still. It'll be interesting to see how long he lasts. I'm sure he feels like a million bucks now, but if he takes one weird/big hit or even makes one weird move, it won't be...

    Like Savoir Faire between periods last night. If there's one dude I'd like to meet, it's him; just seems like a super-friendly person. Wish they'd just put him in the booth instead of Caley. Last night, during a delayed penalty on the Hawks in the first, Vosters thought the Ducks intentionally...

    Anyone see the Hawk Cast thing last night? I tried giving it a shot since Caley was in the booth this game. It was fucking awful. Zeroing in on Bedard literally on the bench while the play is going on. He's on the bench, and the camera is on him the whole time only, not the play. Seriously...

    Yeah he's been bad. Korchinski has looked horrific too, looks like a deer in headlights in his own zone.

    I'll say this -- I'm not going to miss Perry, but if they're kicking him off the team for simply getting drunk and saying something stupid at a team event, that's pretty silly. If there's more to the story, I get it, but I'm hoping they didn't ruin this guy over something miniscule.

    Question for my fellow Blackhawks fans.

    You can call it smart. Players around the league though, would call it gutless. There is a code that hockey players abide by, like any sport. It's stupid -- sure -- but all sports in and of themselves are stupid. Entertaining, but stupid (and pointless). For example, if a guy has a tendency to...

    I see your point but for an organization that's so hellbent on being "transparent" ever since the KB stuff, this just goes to show that it's status quo, unless the below is accurate: Dan Abrams of all people waded into the topic last night. He had on a guest from TSN who made an excellent...

    How many fights did he have with the Hawks again?
