Looks like Cooley signs for 8 x $10, i believe i saw last night defenseman for the stars sign Harley for about the same money and term.

Some good info here

Since we have such a good penalty kill and when we are winning and teams like the Kings and Senators keep us on the ice for long shifts on the 2nd period, i would put my pk unit out there after a long shift and keep a fast forward at center ice or even near the opponents blue line and force them to decide to collapse or honor the forward cherry picking, then the Blackhawks can shoot the puck down the forward negates icing or even may have a breakaway chance.

Also can i get a rule clarification, if you deflect a puck with your stick that isn’t considered possession? I thought that’s the only time you can call the play dead not when you see the deflected puck headed into the Senators net, hahaha, refs=bums

I gotta say i enjoy that we have a very good penalty kill. Rinzel didn’t take kindly to the high hit so he went and gave him a lasting cross check at center ice.

It sends notice to players if you are going to come in high on your hits we are going to retaliate and sure we might get penalized but it doesn’t matter because you ain’t going to score.

Tough road trip coming up it will definitely give us a better idea who the Blackhawks are. No Slaggert tonight?

Even though they had that stretch they are a tough team to play against and that will go a long way this season for them.

I also really like how they are fighting constantly throughout the game to get on the right side of the puck, the little things repeated over and over and over again.

2nd period stunk but really happy with the 1st and 3rd periods.

It was nice to see the Blackhawks get more physical in the 3rd.

I like it when we play teams with bad defense or slow defenseman and leaky goalies.

It’s great to hear that the baby Hawks played really well today. It sounded like they really struggled against the eagles but then bounced back the next night to shut them out 4-0.

I was really hoping to see the ice hogs play like this with a bunch of KD picks from 2022 and 2023 on the roster.

Okay they survived the 2nd, the time out helped. It really is harder to win these games when Kaiser isn’t playing as well, i hope he has a great 3rd period.
