Hartman second to last on the team with 4:28 total time on the ice (Bouma at 4:11.) Is he in Q's doghouse for that d-zone turnover that led to the Habs goal?

Probably a good guess, but he hasn't been noticeable for two games now. He should at least be hitting people if nothing else

Yep...Hayden is gonna slide into his spot if he doesn't watch it.

Hard for Kane to do anything when his stick is being held at times by the opponent, several times its happened and no call, whatever

... But they're behind on the scoreboard so it's ok

Exactly! And I'm thinking that's a good thing, at least try it out

Jesus christ another penalty!

Penalty number 5, hahaha hahaha

and, a penalty to start the 3rd

There it is

There it is
- Hawkjet

Another (frank)ing penalty

Hawks gotta stop taking so many penalties while defending. It is better than Ozone penalties, but still...playing with fire way too much, even with the weak calls.

That was a good call. Montreal woulda eventually scored as careless as the Hawks were.

10-19-88 out there together after the penalty

Hey, who ever a few pages back in the afternoon (?) was ripping Kero that he can only work his way down, well...


get your freaking eyes examined.

That was a great effort he make to get the clear on the PK.

So do we think Toews suddenly learned to take draws overnight?

Or is the officiating in this league the worst in professional sports?

Habs doing whatever they want, hooking holding slashing no calls, none

8-0 shots on goal this period. Geeze. I know the Hawks have been on the PK all night so that hasn't helped.

Don't forget tripping, interference...

How about Crawford shutting it down though. He has been dialed in this seasons so far.

Geezz looks like we may lose another in the last period if we don't pick it up here

Thank you line 1, some ozone pressure

Yea no doubt. Sometimes we forget to remember the goalies are part of the team too and Crow is a damn good part it it.

Saad is literally getting mugged every time he has the puck

But winning, so...

Tell you one thing: although he's a "quitter," "no good" and not worth trading one of our future hallf of fame prospects or rookies for:

Matt Duchene is a 55%+ faceoff guy (who can kill penalties), blazing fast, responsible defensively (in spite of some cherry picked stats from a horrid Avalanche team last year) and is pretty much a skilled guy offensively who can play C or wing.

Or we can sit around and marvel at how much DeBrincat isn't scoring or how he looks laid out in the corner by the kind of hit he's gonna see more of until he realizes he ain't in the OHL anymore.

Being a Hawk fan comes with choices.
- John Jaeckel

JJ your right about each fans choices, even though the kid scored tonite, if he's the piece that Sakic becomes hell bent on for a Duchene trade to Chicago, I'm making the deal, your last paragraph says a lot, this is the NHL baby, this isn't kids removed a year out of mom and dads house playing in the OHL. Duchene is a win now piece and probably would be so re energized to play with this group.

10 mil a year for Price - I think its about 9 mil too much.

Bergy should have traded CC for price at the start of last season!
