Raise your hand if you had Utah and NJ as the NHL points percentage leaders on October 26th.

Yeah I know it’s early.
Yeah I know the Hawks are doing really well also.

The Hawks had 3 days off before Thursday’s game.
Then, 2 days off before today against the Kings.

Soderblom has not played in 11 days. Hopefully he is rested-not-rusty.
It will be interesting to see how the team plays in front of him.

From Scott Powers’ article today:
“Hawks are allowing, on average, more shot attempts, more shots on goal, more scoring chances and more high-danger chances than they did last season.

Also,
overall:
defensive zone percentage 43.8 ranks 31st
offensive zone percentage 38.3 ranks 32nd

at even strength:
defensive zone percentage 42.8 ranks 28th
offensive zone percentage 38.7 ranks 29th

Trading Reichel for a 4th ,bit of a head scratcher .

1) Reichel has played poorly, is not part of their future.
2) They opened up a roster spot that can be used for youngsters in the AHL who are waiver exempt.
3) Allows a RFD shuttle system to reward good play and figure out who might be ready for the NHL.

Reichel dumped to VAN for a 2027 4th round pick.

Hawks on pace for 102 points.

Feels good. I hope it lasts.

postgame hot takes:
Knight is not only good, he is smart.
Arty made a good defensive play in the 3rd. Possibly his first of year.
Rinzel is very good, will get better, but made some youngster type plays tonight.
Tampa sucks really bad. What a shame.
