QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ May 25, 2015 -> 11:14 PM) If Bickell wasn't the only big forward they have who delivers a few hits he'd be the healthy scratch . Maybe he should be anyway next game. This hits thing has gone too far. It's meaningless. The Hawks top 4 who have been the ones absorbing Anaheim's hits played fine today. Bickell can take his hits and nothing else to some useless hockey city next year. I'm sick of watching him play and it starts with the coach. Hearing how I have no cups but he has 2 is ridiculous. He sits Vermette and Teuvo and then they combine for 5 points in the next 5 periods yet he keeps trotting Bickell out there despite repeatedly doing squat. This is unbelievable. I hope Toews slugs him on the plane.

Hawks start Sunday at 2 and play every other day.. unless there's a game 7.

QUOTE (farmteam @ May 8, 2015 -> 08:19 AM) I'd be surprised if Yeo isn't gone. They're not exactly happy with him here. What team is going set their franchise back 3 years and give Dubnyk $4 million a year? Buffalo, Edmonton?

This Kane guy

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ May 6, 2015 -> 09:31 AM) Minnesota just doesn't match up well with the Hawks. To get to Chicago, you have to be an extremely physical team that takes the body. Minnesota plays great locational defense, they just aren't that physical. I'm not sure that beats them, either. STL has been trying that for 2-3 years now. The Canucks tried, too.

I just knew they should have traded Kane for Miller.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 3, 2015 -> 02:16 PM) This team just is not competitive Fixed

QUOTE (Soxfest @ May 2, 2015 -> 01:43 PM) Good for you KY Amos is athletic as hell. He's a 5th round pick at a need position. He's a former CB who's still learning how to be a FS. At the worst, he's a good ST player. If you're really watching this hoping they find the next Sherman and Brady, you're asking too much.

If Trey Flowers is there at 106, the Bears should take him. Get Harris/Amos/Campbell/Sample/Shaw in the 5th and get BPA in tbe 6th.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ May 1, 2015 -> 06:49 PM) Space eater is a good call not much of a pass rusher at all. He's the best all around NT in the draft. Shelton is a pure space eater. Did you ever watch FSU?

QUOTE (scs787 @ Apr 30, 2015 -> 10:25 PM) I get a kick out of Collins not being the first safety taken and him slipping so far. I know a lot of people who wanted him at 7 and ya, no.....Id take him in the 2nd though, even though Im comfortable with Role/Mundy. If Collins or Gregory are there at 7, I would be extremely happy. It's becoming more and more apparent that Bennett will be dealt or cut. Maxx Williams is a sleeper pick for the Bears.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Apr 27, 2015 -> 09:30 PM) I'm no hockey expert, but 11 total shots on goal in a game 7 isn't very good, right? Considering 3 of the 11 were by forwards...no. Not good.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Apr 27, 2015 -> 10:18 AM) Yeah I am sure nobody had left home 2 hrs before show and radio adds ran advertising him 10 minutes before show time. Everyone does not use twitter. It's WWE's fault that radio shows kept running advertisements that were created a month ago?

QUOTE (Brian @ Apr 27, 2015 -> 06:22 AM) More cryptic promos from Bray! Maybe he'll actually win this feud! When did this happen? I was there last night and never saw a promo. A lot of people thought it would start last night and he'd save his brother from Ryback. QUOTE (Soxfest @ Apr 26, 2015 -> 07:20 PM) WWE advertised Bryan till show time and he is not even there. Ambrose/Harper no finish drove truck up ramp Chicago crowd is already yelling boring. WWE tweeted 2 hours prior to showtime about Bryan. I hardly call that "advertised till showtime."

Rundblad can't be worse than Timonen.

QUOTE (shysocks @ Apr 23, 2015 -> 09:16 PM) Also Yost and Sale having a conversation at one point, that was weird. It looked like Sale said something to the effect of "ok just don't f***ing touch me."

QUOTE (Big Hurtin @ Apr 23, 2015 -> 09:12 PM) Anyone see anything? All I saw was a lot of yelling and shoving. I'm sure there are many camera angles to catch something. And Ventura can F... Himself! Yeah I saw that Ventura is a b****

This Ventura guy needs his ass kicked

QUOTE (chitownsportsfan @ Apr 23, 2015 -> 08:26 PM) with his secondary lead (as he should be getting in case of a passed ball) he was deads to rights. did a good job staying alive to get guys over imo. the real tragedy was gillaspie completely f***ing up two hanging sliders from Ventura. the first one he yanked foul, the 2nd he was even more early on. I'm not worried as much about Abreu. Garcia could have been out at 3rd had he waited another second and Gillaspie should have been on 2nd with ease

The base running on this team is a joke. Who the hell attempts to score on a one hopper to 1st? And why the hell was Garcia not on 3rd quicker & how the f*** did Gillaspie not get to 2nd? My goodness

If there's ever been a PPV I'm not looking forward to attending, it'll be this one on Sunday. At least my seats were free and at least I'll see a cage match for the first time ever.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Apr 22, 2015 -> 10:20 AM) I watched most of the 2nd OT this morning on the CSN replay. That Shaw slashing penalty was so ridiculous. What is wrong with that guy? He's never met a dumb penalty he doesn't like. It's pretty amazing that the Hawks have gotten this far and mounted 102 points in the regular season with how bad Shaw, Bickell, Richards, Versteeg, Timonen, Rozsival, and Vermette are.

QUOTE (woods of ypres @ Apr 20, 2015 -> 09:57 PM) Eaton looks lost up there.

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Apr 18, 2015 -> 07:55 PM) No he doesn't. They still have 0 defenders and no goalie. If they do get defense, one of RNH, Hall, Eberle or Yakupov will be gone. You could have said the same about Pittsburgh and they won it 3-4 years later. Players are going to want to play there now. Nurse was taken 7th two years ago and he will be a good player for their defense. All they need is a few solid guys- Seabrook after next year, Oduya after this year- and they can be a very good team. The Wild, Ducks, Flames, Pens, Blues, etc are in the playoffs this year with goalies who were either unknown coming into this year or had low expectations coming into the year. You never know when they can find the right guy.

How in hell can one team win the draft lottery 4x in 6 years? I know RNH and Hall never panned out the way most first overall picks do but McDavid makes them a Cup contender in the next 3-5 years.
