Good read this am Frenchy, thanks.
Every game i expect the Blackhawks to turn into a pumpkin and to my eye, maybe a bit bias but they have not looked over matched or overwhelmed.
One thing i noticed at the end of the Canucks game was even though the Canucks had 2 PPs in the last 5 minutes, i never saw any of the penalty killers panic, they stayed in their lanes, never chased and took away the prime scoring angles. They said last night that the ice hogs killed 20 penalties in a row until the Wolves finally scored one.
Once they get better at not trailing opponents off the half boards during puck battles this team will take another step in the right direction.
Sounds like Slaggert has been activated so i doubt we see Reichel today.
Hogs win again tonight killed 20 straight penalties. Streak ended tonight
Lardis 1G 1A
Moore 1AKorchinski 2 apples
Russian looked good in goal, killed 6 of 7 penalties, hahaha
So remember when i talked about the owning the Panthers 1st round pick not protected?
4 losses in a row, i don’t even know half their roster today, hahaha, if we have 2 lottery picks this year Holy crap….
Kaiser is playing great he was all over the ice last night, Korchinski, Del Mastro, and Allan have their work cut out for them which is a good problem to have.
The slotting for our defenseman is really nice and i think we layer well against opponents so long as a forward covers the slot.
What bothered me about Reichel and it continued last night, at first he goes after the puck carrier but as soon as that puck carrier gets rid of the puck he quickly disengages and floats, that’s got to stop if he wants ice time. To me he lacks that competitive gene needed to play NHL hockey.
That’s why I’m excited Moore is doing well at the Rock, he’s going to take someone’s playing time away quickly when he gets here
Went with my wife, son and daughter in law. Section 325 half way up, love being up high and get to see the passing lanes.
The speed was evident in the 1st but they slowed down in the 2nd and 3rd. Wonder if Blashill practices are catching up to the team.
It was a lot of fun and i did feel like Bedard became the iso show as the game went on although they had 3 or 4v quality breakaway chances which is really the difference between 1 and 2 points.
The crazy part is there was long stretches in the game where the Blackhawks looked like the better team, which is wonderful to me, give me youth with their warts everyday.
I hear Moore scored 2 more goals last night😁
One nice thing to see from this young team is getting points inspite of the refs on the ice.
I felt they were a bit slower in the 2nd and 3rd period i wonder if Blashill will dial back the practices a little. I hear they are working them hard.
You know i got to enjoy the game live. Reichel is just so indecisive out there and Dickinson at times is a horrendous passer.
I really liked their compete but damn man i wish Bedard would just play his game vs the Canucks instead of trying to do everything. Really really really dumb penalty with 2 minutes left.
I must have seeing problems because that 3rd goal looked good to me, but you know Canadien Refs
You know MH you are correct the goalie had a bad night, that happens but what doesn’t happen in the past couple of years is the Blackhawks don’t take advantage of it.
The most encouraging thing is they didn’t let up, they just kept playing the same style of hockey instead of turtling in their own end.
