    He should have waited a decent year and he’s over $6M.

    He signed the contract so it must be what he wanted now. If he plays well for the next 4 years, he’ll be due an even bigger pay day while in his prime. Plus he gets the security after dealing with his OCD.

    If Commesso, the new Russian kid, or Gajan pan out over the next few years Knight’s contract is tradeable if necessary.

    Game is at 6pm tonight. Hers’s a link to the Hawks home page. Once there, I assume there will be a link to the video feed.

    From Bamford’s article, Hawks prospects were practicing a 1-3-1 PP setup. The two units:

    Jack Pridham
    Ryan Greene — Oliver Moore — Nick Lardis
    Sam Rinzel

    Marek Vanacker
    Nathan Behm — AJ Spellacy — Aidan Thompson
    Artyom Levhsunov

    Something to watch for this weekend.

    Kantserov with an assist in his 3rd game. That’s his only point so far. He does have 16 PIM. Must have picked up a misconduct along the way,

    i found him waiting for more hawks fans to show up and it was sad so i invited him to the habs thread to wait with us until they get here.

    I didn’t see the invitation, but thanks for the thought. This sight needs a DM option.

    Anyway things are picking up on the Blackhawks forum so I’m there most of the time.

    Looking forward to the day 2 practice report, Frenchy. Nice for us fans to begin seeing the light at the end of the tunnel.

    Guys like Reichel and Dach better stay healthy and up their game this season or their spots in the lineup will be taken by some of these new guys.

    This site still has some cracks in it, posted a reply and it disappeared

    I, too, have had comments disappear when I posted in the comments section that is on the same page as Frenchy’s blogs. These are the comments with the time delay that need some sort of moderator approval.

    The title of Frenchy’s daily blogs also appear in the Blackhawks forum and comments are allowed there. I haven’t commented that way so I don’t know if the disappearing act occurs. I am going to start adding my posts to Frenchy’s articles there in the forum section to see what happens. An added benefit is there is no time delay. Your thoughts are posted immediately so it better serves a conversation among us. Seems kind of dumb to read the blog on one page and then go to another page to comment, but it is what it is.

    EDIT – Make sure you are logged in on the FORUM page. Go to FORUM, CHICAGO BLACKHAWKS, select the title of Frenchy’s blog. The first comment is from Frenchy with a link to his blog, click on the link, read the blog, then the comments section at the end of the blog is in the forum type layout. Just add your comment via hitting reply or quote if applicable. Then the comment is posted immediately.

    I also know that when a comment is added it goes to Frenchy via e-mail. He does a good job of responding to each comment, but his replies aren’t addressed so you have to read between the lines to figure out to whom he is responding. (If I may suggest maybe he can add for example @boilermaker, @metalhead, @assman22, etc. at the beginning of each of his responses.) Not blaming Frenchy for the quirks in the system, but maybe he deletes his incoming e-mail after responding and then our posts disappear here too?

    This week’s football schedule. NFL regional broadcast areas, NCAA schedule and where to find the games, and announcing crews.

    I don’t think we need to figure out anything more on Spencer Knight except for him finally to get a real dose of NHL games under his belts.

    The hop is that he starts to deliver as a better puck saver and that the kids feed off that in games.

    Can he help keep the team in games, enabling the young core to play strong infront of his and WIN more?

    I think big Sam may be on track towards a rookie of the year nomination.

    Will Arty start to see where to position himself in his end? Will he restain himself to seeing the simple over the jump up urges his quick feet have to save the day?

    Will enough youngsters take steps that elevate themselve in NHL pro status and stick?

    I don’t think any of the starved for success fanbase will be opposed to seeing any and all of Rockford rotating in and out.
    We don’t want regualt roles handed out before the second wave of prospects arrives, and then the third, and then the fourth in this years 2026 deep class, where essntially the Balckhawks can start selecting developmental players who will be on track to fill and replace the draft picks that have failed to show NHL muster.

    Welcome Wiz. If you are not aware there is a forum for general discussion. Here’s a link. Stop by and add your expertise. A lot of the old regulars are there.

    re: Laurent Brossoit

    Other than idle speculation about trading him, has anyone read *any actual info*
    about his health status going into training camp?

    This info has been locked down forever, it seems.

    Does Brossoit have red hair? Is he someone’s step-child? The Hawks have had him hidden in the basement since he got injured. Talk about keeping a tight lid on things.

    Best case scenario is he starts the season healthy, gets a few games in and does decently (Hawks would have to keep all three goalies on the roster), and someone else’s goalie or backup wets the bed or gets injured making him trade fodder. Chances of all three happening are slim and none.
