Massive game, and getting point(s) out of it puts them on solid ground with Ottawa, Tampa, and Washington to wrap things up. Shock the United States of America.
That's the right decision. Tuukka played his ass off yesterday, and he's already close to another 65-game season. Plus, with Khudobin playing better lately, it's the smart play.And Dobbie leads them out of the tunnel. No Tuukka today.
Wondering the same thing. Didn't want to make a stink at the local bar I'm at over an icing, but...wtf?Why the fuck was that icing waved off?
Yeah but Doc is also 70 where Eddie and Pierre are only in their 50s... They might be looking for an heir apparent for when Doc eventually retires.Are they grooming Gord Miller to take over from Doc? I mean, he's a good choice, but I'd rather they explore moving on from Pierre or Olczyk.
...so you're saying they're overdue for another L?Hawks are 20-4-2 in the last 26. Not bad.
I know the story at then end of the season will be how badly the Wild gagged away the division down the stretch, but it's not like Chicago was mediocre. They took it from Minnesota.Hawks are 20-4-2 in the last 26. Not bad.
The second icing getting waived off a few minutes in had me livid. There's zero consistency with the hybrid even 2+ years into it.But that's icing?

He's already made a couple great plays. He shouldn't sit as a healthy scratch again.That was a sick rush by C Miller there. Great wheels.
Yep, I hate the hybrid system almost as much as I hate the god awful delay of game penalty for shooting the puck out of play.The second icing getting waived off a few minutes in had me livid. There's zero consistency with the hybrid even 2+ years into it.
Assuming you're referencing him diving to stop the puck. That was kinda his fault for not getting the puck through. Good recovery but ideally he doesn't put himself in the situation.He's already made a couple great plays. He shouldn't sit as a healthy scratch again.
His dive to break up a potential home run pass to Hossa was great - but he played some part in creating the opportunity as well by pinching into nowhere.He's already made a couple great plays. He shouldn't sit as a healthy scratch again.
Yeah I yelled at the TV there too. Just sitting there idly.I find myself screaming at Backes multiple times per game
edit: after creating an icing situation, he stands and watches a loose puck in the corner that he can clearly get to first.
He turned him into a pretzel. That was impressive.Where's your jock Duncan?
