Hoss with a nice takeaway and shot!

Kane, Toews, Hossa score so much on the ice together

Great dive by Kanopka.

Kenopka with a Canuck-esque dive.

Konopka chirping at Shaw in the box...Z looks like he could be Shawzer's Pops....but then again...so could most players.

gets it...tees it...and blasts it from 12 ft...

I submit that the fact that he hits so many posts shows he IS accurate - obviously (unlike most Hawk shooters) he's not just aiming for the sweater crest, or (like Hawk defensemen) just wildly shooting from the point.

Ahhhh....No.

Does anyone else finally believe that Oduya is a #5/#6???
I know, I know, not by his pay scale . . . . but like water seeking its own level, his giveaways and poor decision making HAVE been noted by Q and his staff and his TOI is finally being adjusted accordingly.

Through 2:

Keith 17:06
Hjalmarsson 14:26
Seabrook 13:28
Leddy 13:34
BrookSTANK 10:45
Oduya 10:12

I just hope Stanley gets Leddy signed before offer sheets go out.

To be fair Savvy, I never considered Oduya as anything but. There's a reason he's been a journeyman, and while he can be a smooth skater he also loves to deliver those xtra-large pizza turnovers.

He's overpaid but he's playing where I figured Q would put him by this point, on the 3rd pairing. The sad thing is that his limited offensive ability became non-existant the day he asked Keith to teach him how to pump fake at the worst times and fool nobody.

Yeah, what is it about that move that just bothers the hell out of me? Oh yeah, I know now -- it doesn't work!!!!! Just like you stated.

Oduya gets a lot more heat than the other d-men. Hammer and Seabrook have been turnover machines this year too

Hammer recently. During the streak he was solid. Not sure what Seabs deal is.

Interesting talk about the defensemen. I'm still not sure why everyone hates Brookbank so much. I think the fans expect every defensemen to be a Bobby Orr. To me, Brookbank is doing exactly what the Hawks got him for (when he gets ice time). He's there to eat up minutes and he's a good teammate. He sticks up for the others and isn't afraid to scrap. Not everyone is or can be a Shea Weber. A lot of guys aren't on that level but they can fill pieces and gaps that need to be.

Nope.... Our defensemen are not allowed to make mistakes
