CaliSoxFanViaSWside Posted October 25, 2022 Share Posted October 25, 2022 Obviously not much interest in the Blackhawks right now. However, I like their Coach Luke Richardson. Seems like they got much faster. Domi and Athanasiou are playing well. The PK has 4 shorthanded goals already which is 2 more than all of last year. They are forechecking well. It may well turn out to be the high point of the season being a game over .500 now but they've been an enjoyable watch so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaliSoxFanViaSWside Posted October 27, 2022 Author Share Posted October 27, 2022 Nice win over a very good Panthers team. More than likely not a playoff team but that's a step up from what I was going to be the most dismal season ever. It still could be but the payers seem to have bought into Richardson's leadership. 1st time in almost 40 years the Hawks have won their 1st 3 home games of the season.

SoxAce Posted October 27, 2022 Share Posted October 27, 2022 Amazing what a good coach with a good system can do for a team... oh.. and trimming the fat of the slow, 0 heart, soft skaters for fast, work their ass off, gritty ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmags Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 Have been enjoying watching hawks a bit. Kind of amazed, considering how I heard they wouldn’t field a professional hockey team, how enjoyable they are. Like Domi just going after Jost for hitting Kane.

This isn't a "boys will be boys" situation. I suggest some read the whole story about this. f*** that dude and I'm glad the Bruins realized their mistake (which they shouldn't of done in the first place).

This draft class is ridiculously deep. The top 4 guys have the best chance to be impact players but there's plenty of guys who can be top 6-9 players. Make no mistake though.. this is Connor Bedard's draft. Michkov is the only other player who can be just as good as Bedard but he is a huge risk with the Russian factor.

Michkov is the only other player who can be just as good as Bedard but he is a huge risk with the Russian factor. I was wondering more about the significance of each slot down given the lottery odds. I have to say they were bigger drops than I thought looking at tankathon. But, there is 3 months left and a trade deadline. It's not like any of these teams are going to lose out. I do think it's interesting how often in tanking when a team is accused of not even creating a professional, competitive group they end up with not the worst record. In baseball, #1 pick always seems like a group of vets that just completely fell off out of nowhere (baltimore 2018). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoxAce Posted February 23, 2023 Share Posted February 23, 2023 The first of likely many deals this deadline for Davidson. Nice trade here for draft capital in a loaded draft. 8 days away from Patrick Kane potentially being gone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted February 23, 2023 Share Posted February 23, 2023 Yeah, that's a solid deal and the Hawks using their cap space wisely. They are going to suck again next year so use the space to get more capital. I think Kane ends up staying Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I like about Davidson is he ain't afraid to hold onto guys that playoff teams try to get a lesser return on (Kubalik, Strome) and let a guy walk than help them. Unless he really does Kane a solid, I think he'll have 0 issue letting Kane stay if the Rangers aren't ponying up (and they better. Think the Giroux trade last year, maybe even a touch more as Kane is the better player). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
