    I was popping in and out to see if there were any comments in the general thread.
    Couldn’t see the Detroit thread until today.

    Odd that hockeybuzz had more comments when the team was absolutely abysmal,but now when they are at least watchable there seem to be way less comments.

    Chicago is a Bears town, but I was watching the Hocks,and checking in here on the board!

    Hopefully as the season goes there will be more interactions here!

    Frenchy’s most recent column appearing on the home page today Tuesday, not on the forum topic page.

    Public Service Annoouncement about this site. If you are logged on to the forums page, you are not necessarily logged on to the home page. If you are looking for a current Frenchy blog on the home page, make sure you are logged on. (Check the log in/log out status at the right of the top banner.) When you’re logged on to the home page, it refreshes and new articles appear. Maybe that’s why no one knew about the Detrroit game thread.

    How’d we ever trade for Mik if he has a 12 team no trade list?

    Good point.

    Not sure when all the VAN drama (Pettersson – Miller) started, maybe that turned him off.
    Maybe the Hawks sold him on joining an improving team.

    It could also be the 12 team NTC was only in effect the last 2 years of his contract. I am not sure if that was the case, just presenting another possibility.

    I read at the time of the trade, Mik had to waive the 12 team no trade clause. I suppose he decided that he needed a fresh start elsewhere, or KD or his agent Milstein talked him into waiving.

    I was hoping they would extend Mik but then Frenchy reminded me he’s 32 years old. Really enjoy his brand of hockey but i got a feeling if things continue the way they are we will hold on to him till the end of the season unless someone actually offers a 2027 1st round pick which i doubt.

    I think Dickinson is traded by the dead line.

    He’s still got jump. I wonder if 2x$3.5 would get it done?

    Hawks will have a ton of cap space just to meet the floor next year. 2 x5M I think is more likely. Considering he may be mentoring Kantserov, it’s affordable and worth it,

    This is post 1009 on this forum topic. Counting backyards from here, post 1000 was submitted by Coach Frenchy. Congratulations, sir, and well deserved.

    I think Mikheyev gets more than 2 years.
    He won’t turn 32 until the beginning of next season.
    Someone who needs a great defensive forward / great penalty killer, and will worry about the rest of a longer contract down the road.

    He’s not going anywhere for a few months at least.
    He will play here the entire season unless the Hawks are near elimination at the trade deadline.
    They were eliminated about a week before the deadline last year. Will be better this year of course.

    Interesting post from Tab Bamford.
    I don’t know how this compares to ordinary scouting/executive presence, but it seems like a lot of people.

    fascinating collection of pro scouts & intriguing front office execs on the press box list for tonight’s #Blackhawks vs Devils matchup.

    TOR
    EDM
    ANA
    FLA
    SEA
    DET
    NSH
    WSH
    LAK
    STL
    NYI

    TOR and SEA are in the Hawk’s next 3 games.
    WSH and FLA are in the Devil’s next 3 games.

    Not sure how far ahead these guys regularly attend games for opponent scouting:
    Hawks play the Ducks 8 games down the road.
    Hawks play the Kings in 10 games.
    Hawks play the Predators in 7 games.
    Devils play the Red Wings in 5 games.
    Devils play the Blues in 6 games.

    Neither team pays the NYI for at least 20 games.
    Neither team plays Edmonton until January.
