Hahaha. I was thinking more like still hurt.

Think whatever you want. It's true. They told him "butterfly or released" and he changed. Then he got called up, got hot, played very well for a month, and got a stupid extension.

Marcus Kruger is going to get another crack at playing second-line center for the #Blackhawks, Joel Quenneville said today.

Whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa.

 

Handzus isn't a second line center? Did anyone tell Bowman?

He fell asleep at Palace grill and then the move was made. He's still in a food coma.

Why do I constantly feel like we're going to be looking at the Crawford and Bickell deals as the reasons why we lose a guy like Patrick Sharp?

There's much worse ramifications that could come out of this. Sharp is Sharp. Losing a Toews or Kane would be the real issue (make no mistake, they're the reason we matter now and they're the reason we should matter ten years from now).

Yeah, I always thought Saad was kind of the replacement for us for Sharp. Teuvo is killing it as well.

 

Crawford's contract is worse than Bick's IMO.

There is a ton of chatter about NHL attendance and a big spike coming in the cap. There is no way that this Hawks management group extended Crawford without either pretty solid expectations of cap room opening up, or knowing that Toews/Kane aren't resigning and they have the room to use anyway. (not that I believe the latter for a second).

Yeah, everyone seems fairly certain the cap will rise a large amount in the near future. Of course, it's always possible something can happen to reverse that trend, which would be very, very bad for the Hawks and #19/88. We need to root for the Canadian dollar to make a turnaround, it's been struggling.

Technically the Hawks have scored five goals already, although one was in their own empty net.

 

That SH goal was about as big of a fluke goal as you will ever see in a hockey game. It really goes to how good this team is that they can play over something like that like it never happened. A goal like that beats most teams.
