LittleHurt05 Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 Paging #19, paging #19. These power play woes just kill me. Other than maybe Pittsburgh, no team puts as much talent on the ice as the Hawks #1 power play line, yet they still just can't seem to score.

GoSox05 Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 I don't get the Toews hate. He had 7 shots on goal. One hit of those hit the post. Not great, but it's not like he isn't doing anything. Andrew Shaw on the other hand needs to control himself. He looked like a coked out maniac last night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You mean that guy who was getting brutalized on every play yet still took the puck to the net and looked utterly dominant? He had bad luck - hit a post, had a wraparound that somehow didn't find the opening. Howard played great, but I have no idea why you'd single out the one guy on the team that stood out as playing a good game? Why not get on Seabrook for playing like an idiot, Keith for being fancy, Kane for pretty much disappearing and stick handling us out of opportunities, or Hossa for lazy board play? I'd be quicker to blame just about anyone than Toews. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoSox05 Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 Seabrook is one of my favorite players, but he was just awful yesterday. He needs to get his s*** together. Whoever wins Thursday will take the series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be quicker to blame just about anyone than Toews. He has been playing well, but the results aren't there and that's what matters in the end. Fact is he has 0 goals & 3 assists in 8 playoff games. They have scored only one goal in each of their last two games. Bad luck sucks and all, but if your best player isn't putting points on the board, you are gonna go home.

This is true, and there are more than enough players to blame for the last two losses. But with the team in a scoring funk for one reason or another, and the season potentially on the line, I would like to see the team's captain and best player get on the damn score sheet.
