I guess it plays in our favor.
Would be great if we had a hot start, but apparently management is going to take 15 games to figure out what I think 90% of us are fairly certain of already...Suppan sucks and will expose just how bad this team defense actually is, even with some clear improvements. How will you tell giving up 3.6-4.5 a game?
I no longer have faith in our brain trust. We are the miscarriage of an Evil Scientist and Harry Potter. I kind of can't wait to see the look on their faces when they have to wear this.
Morons. They actually passed over Robin Lehner and have the audacity to talk to us about the goalie of the future or some shit. What are you doing Bowfucker?
You blew the goalie situation and now you blew the draft. You blew the cap. You blew the rehashes, and the Panarin situation. My god man.
Well, Lehner was so good he covered up alot of the defensive mistakes himself. This team would be carried by him and would actually have a chance with a shortened season, which would be a bad thing.
They need to blow it up. If not blow it up, commit to tanking the next couple years where top ten draft picks will net you a great prospect since both drafts are pretty stacked.
Next year's draft is five blue chip defenseman deep. They have to stop this "were not rebuilding, were retooling" crap.
JC is known as a developmental coach, and what, three, four years ago wasn't Kelly annointed a great judge of talent by Hawks fans? It's time these guys either shit or get off the pot.
Toews, Kane, and Keith will always play at an NHL level for the duration of their careers, it's time to move these guys down the depth chart(not Kane) and see where the Hawks actually are in terms of developing the next phase of a championship team.
Dach is gonna be a stud. Kelly didn't fuck up a top three pick.
Boqvist the jury is still out on. He's got a high skill set yet JC is turning him into what Jokiharu was instead of what Boqvist is actually proficient at which is next level skating and vision.
Let this team tank
