It would be the most blackhawk thing to do really well this season or batshit craziness and use it to convince themselves everything is fine. I'm rooting for them but there is still a lot wrong with this roster that needs fixed.

Not to gloss over what is not a cup contender, but the Columbus games they were not only short Toews, Dach, and Seabrook, but also Debrincat and Boquist, and they still weren't blown out.

Fair point, though short on Boqvist is actually a detriment to our opponent.

Maybe go with 12 forwards this game. With 11 forwards we are only potting 1 goal a game. We aren’t the as deep as he Lighting to be only running 11

Hopefully it doesn't get cancelled due to Covid.

Tony DeAngelo just got waived.

Do the Hawks claim him? Or is he too much of a nutjob?

Well...if something really crazy happened...Like Kane made Kurashevs speed a nasty element, all of a sudden the roster could be fairly stacked.

If next year...

Racheil-Toews-Hagel?/Cat?
Janmark?/-Kurashev-Kane
Carp-Kampf-?
Cat?-Strome-Dach...

see...I just have this idea that maybe Strome and Dach are made for each other. Dach can't win a faceoff to save his life, but zone entry and defense...passing...

like Cat-Strome-Dach intruges me as a third line. Kurashev-Kane being a thing makes that a reality.

Rask, did you forget about Kubalik? I'm sure he'd be an asset on any line.

Nice to see the Hawks with a two goal lead with 6:20 left. Two bad angle goals that went in.

Kurashev Dach Kaner is going to be one hell of a line when Dach comes back

I certainly don't miss the 5 goals against stuff. 7 goals allowed in 5 games is damned good for Lank regardless of who they played. Good for him and good for the team.

I want to see Delia in net more often.
He looks like a whiteboy trying to breakdance. On ice. In goalie gear.
I think it's fucking hilarious!
Delia reminds me of myself when I try to play goalie in Nhl21 just mashing the shit out of buttons

How was RJ in this game? I saw that he had 7 hits.

When was the last time a blackhawks forward had that many in a game?

Not sure if anyone else noticed I think JC aggresive man to man D is finally gone! No more Dmen chasing around people to the blue line protecting the house alot more

No. Pipe dream. If Kur became the fastest skater in the NHL, we still have bottom-5, arguably bottom-3 level roster talent.

Lankinen is looking solid.

Janmark is playing a smart game- get the puck, pass it to Kane. Idk why JC isn't drilling this into his linemates heads.

Kurachev is very good on the forecheck. Would love to see him and Toews together soon.

Mitchell looks great with DK, it just took JC how many games to figure this out.

Zadorov had a rough game.

They're getting too fancy on the PP which will screw up the progress it has made.

And I can't tell the difference between DeHan or a walking dead zombie any more
