chimpy2121 Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 Well, that was fun. Hjalmarsson turned that game around with that hit. Great start to the circus trip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DBAHO Posted November 20, 2009 Author Share Posted November 20, 2009 Sounds as if Hossa is going to play on Wednesday according to the Tribune. If we can go above .500 on this road trip, it's really going to set-up our season as a top 4 team in the West as it did last season. Last night was the perfect start, and probably the best the Hawks have played this season so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 QUOTE (SoxAce @ Nov 19, 2009 -> 10:25 PM) Jesus... what a beating. Anyone see that sick pass from Kane to set up Versteeg? Awesome. Kane has been just incredible since Toews got his concussion. The kid hit three posts, last night, not to mention his playmaking. So much for the crap about letting him walkaway after his adventures with cab drivers in the off season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's been our best player so far. His vision and his precision on these passes lately have been insane. He's going to be worth every penny for the next 5+ years. He has to be in the MVP race, along with guys like Iginla, Craig Anderson, Heatley, and of course Crosby. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Me likey he's 5th in the league with a 2.17 GAA. His save % is .907 which is like 24th in the league, not to knock him, but shows how well our defense is playing and keeping the number of opponents shots low khabi has a 3.03 GAA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry Chappas Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 Huet is doing what he needs to do, keep his team in the game. He is being paid to win games but he only needs to keep them in it and not lose. Teams will have to defend the Hawks and will be back on their heels thus the offensive rushes should be few and far between. The supporting cast lit it up last night which they will do more often as the top defensive pairings will have to play Toews/Kane. The defense 1 through 6 is as good as anyone. The Swedish Hammer (I love that name) could be as good as Keith which would be sick. Nice to see Ladd light the lamp. I'd also like to see Versteeg stay at C. He Kane and Hossa coudl scare the s*** out of teams especially on the PP. With Brower playing better or BYf a second or first line of Sharp/Towes could be sick. This team is looking scary right now.

CanOfCorn Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 From ESPN Insider: 10:47AM ET Ottawa Senators Top Email Senators GM Bryan Murray has had conversations with Blackhawks GM Stan Bowman, probably about a potential trade, according to SenShots. With the Blackhawks having to unload salary before announcing the signings of Jonathan Toews, Duncan Keith and Patrick Kane, they are likely trying to dump one of their high-priced veterans. Brian Campbell is a possibility but, as we wrote earlier, Cam Barker is more likely. SenShots predicts the Senators will send back Alexandre Picard, Ryan Shannon and a draft pick.

I just can't see anyone taking him without dumping their own bad contract on us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanOfCorn Posted November 21, 2009 Share Posted November 21, 2009 Do you take the chance and buy him out for 60% of the contract? Lower the cap hit to $2.4 mil and stretch it out over double the years of the contract? I think you give him away for nothing. If Bowman can pull this off...he should get Executive of the Decade.

CanOfCorn Posted November 21, 2009 Share Posted November 21, 2009 Also...Breaking News: EDMONTON, Alberta--Andrew Ebbett, who has been a healthy scratch the last two games, wasn't on the ice during the Blackhawks' practice Friday afternoon in Edmonton and reportedly has been placed on waivers. During the broadcast of the Montreal-Washington game, TSN reported Ebbett has been waived. The forward has a goal in 12 games with the Hawks this season. He was claimed off waivers by the Hawks from the Anaheim Ducks on Oct. 17. The Hawks take on the Oilers on Saturday night in the second game of their six-game road trip.

whitesoxbrian Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 Yeah, Patrick Kane is really good at hockey. His 9 game point streak now is the 2nd longest currently. He's on pace for something like 32+ goals and 52+ assists. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chimpy2121 Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 12 goals in the first 2 of the circus trip. Yeah, I'll take it. Hopefully it keeps up in Vancouver tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
