Every Monday, we bring you the Blackhawks Weekly Recap, covering everything from the NHL roster to the AHL Rockford IceHogs and top prospects in
[See the full post at: Blackhawks Weekly Recap: NHL Week 4]Thanks Coach. Good effort against Edmonton. Another moral victory I guess. Hawks have had a lot of those this season. Seven losses this season as of now. Five by one goal. Two in OT, one in a shootout. One game a 2 goal loss with a late empty netter accounting for that difference. Only one blowout loss, the recent game against Winnipeg. Once these guys begin to learn how to win the close games they’ll start accumulating more points. Goes to show you how one or two misplays in a game can make a difference in the outcome.
Thanks Frenchy good stuff.
I think Griffins are a good test for the kiddies. Yzerman has been building the club up now for 6 years i believe.
Per our discussion yesterday maybe it’s the wrong way to express it, i don’t take issue with the Blackhawks D pinching in the offensive zone, what’s been burning us is the defenseman after a decent offensive keep will pinch in the neutral zone, and this is bad because the forwards can fly out of the D Zone since even if we win the pinch we have to wait for everyone to get on sides again. I didn’t see that vs the Oilers and hope it continues that way for at least the road trip.
per Scott Powers:
Oliver Moore was recalled, in Seattle for the morning skate, and expected to play tonight.
Dickinson is now week to week.Welcome and thanks for your comment! You’re absolutely right — they’ve been in almost every game. Honestly, playing close to a .500 pace at this stage is solid progress for a young group. They’re fun to watch, and you can really see the development of the prospects starting to take shape. Enjoy your day!
Well said, and thanks for your comment! You’re absolutely right — some coaches preach that the moment you lose the puck, you need to switch immediately into defensive mode. The best teams manage that transition with strong gap control through all three zones. It’s all part of the learning curve for a young team in a rebuild, and you can see them gradually improving in that area every game.
