      I think we viewed the beginning of the Red Wings climb to respectabilty as they have some really nice prospects who look like intriguing newbies in the next couple years.
      Sure, it wasn’t the back end speed that both the two younster hawk RDs have, but the Wing-kids were persisently quick and bothersome for the Kid Hawks to handle in all three zones.
      Have we lost Mr. Ricochet along the way in our mass group exodus here from Buzz? I miss him. Anyone want to play in my fantasy league? Let me know as we draft the day before the season starts…
      The catagories are:
      Goals (G), Assists (A), Plus/Minus (+/-), Penalty Minutes (PIM), Powerplay Points (PPP), Shorthanded Points (SHP), Shots on Goal (SOG), Hits (HIT), Blocks (BLK)
      and
      Wins (W), Goals Against Average (GAA), Saves (SV), Save Percentage (SV%), Shutouts (SHO)

      We block NO trades.

        First of all, I want to apologize for the issues with the HHS comment section. It’s a little strange — sometimes comments disappear, but I’ve already reported it to the team so hopefully it gets sorted out soon.

        As for your point about the Red Wings’ pipeline — you’re spot on. This is really the year where the Yzerplan has to deliver, otherwise I think his job could be on the line. We’re already nine years into it. Detroit has drafted well and their development pipeline looks strong, but roster construction has been a big problem. Moves like Chiarot, Holl, Copp, Compher, Petry… they’ve set the team back instead of pushing them forward. That’s a lesson Kyle Davidson has to keep in mind next summer. To his credit, he stayed quiet this past UFA period, which might be a sign he’s learning from last year.

        Thanks again for your comment — always great to have that kind of perspective.

        P.S. If you’re running a fantasy hockey league, I’d be interested in joining. Maybe we could even get one going under the Blackhawks forum or with HHS members.

        go to forums, look up blackhawks and then you will see something like general discussions. that’s not the name but I am sure you will figure it out.

      Wiz, I’m here and so are a lotta fellas from HB. Both Chunk and I posted in this thread, both took at were posted and now both our posts are gone. Be careful of this software it’ll let you type out 3-4 paragraphs and then disappear the damn thing.

      Go to the Hawk’s message board here and message board here and under the General Discussion topic you’ll find everyone here.

        @mr ricochet: I’ll take care of this issue with the disappearing comments — sorry for the headache, we appreciate your patience on that.

        Great take — I’m with you on Grz. He’s steady enough that preseason doesn’t really matter for him, just stay healthy and be ready to log those 21 minutes when it counts.

        As for Blashill, you’re right — this game was another reminder of how big the job is. Year 3 of a teardown still feels raw, but that’s the reality of a rebuild. Some prospects will flash, some will stumble, but that’s the process.

        No surprises here, but like you said, KD knows what he’s got in Grz, and he’ll be leaned on heavily once the real games start.

      @chunk Sorry, I couldn’t find your original comment, but thanks for sharing your thoughts!

      Here’s my reply to you:
      I agree with you on Korchinski. The key for a young defenseman like him is confidence — we sometimes forget how young he still is. Right now, it’s about keeping it simple, cutting down on hesitation, and improving his transition game. If he does that, the offense will come back naturally.

      Like you said, the next few days will be telling. Blashill has to decide whether to lean on an extra veteran for stability or give more runway to the prospects. Either way, it’ll shape how quickly this team finds its chemistry.

      Bonjour ! Pendant que je cherchais un site sympa, j’ai découvert https://spin-mama.fr .

C’est parfait pour passer du temps sans pression. Ce site me plaît parce qu’il me donne un divertissement facile.

      Bună ziua din Banat! Am aflat despre acest mod de distracție de la un coleg de muncă și am zis să văd dacă am mână bună astăzi. Am deschis top bet special pentru online casino bets poker și diversele slots online, fiind pasionat de jocuri. Deși începusem prost și pierdusem bani, am reușit să întorc situația în favoarea mea. Am câștigat suficient cât să plec fericit de la masă și să povestesc tuturor despre succesul meu de azi.
