Give it an hour.. JJ will chanting, Khabby Khabby Khabby!!!!!! I just hope Nik is healthy. I said 20-25 games before.. that may be high. 15-20 more like it.

Yep..he stood on them so much..the embarrassment from being an IDIOT led to him sitting out a whole year

Either way, He's a good goalie, with even better political sense.

I give him credit for standing on his convictions. Wish more people did.

Like I said, I don't care whether he went to the WH or not.

But there is a social value to civility and promoting a sense that we're all in his together, and being respectful to the Country's symbols.

The ban on political speech stops me from saying more.

I view Hanzus role as a guy that is put out there to win faceoffs but mainly on the 4th line until playoffs start

Which is probably what it should be.

Bulin Wall!

That 09 playoff run was fun. I remember Havlat's overtime winner and sliding on his knees.

Interesting. Any details as to the terms of the deal?

Another 'douche'/tough competitor that is now in OUR division and will 'bring it' every night.
- philco28

(frank)ing sick over it.

ChrisKuc: One happy #Blackhawks player will be winger Patrick Kane. He's a good friend of new (old) goaltender Nikolai Khabibulin.

It better not be more then they gave Zus.

Before the news about Khabibulin, I was going to ask when JJ's blog analyzing all the new Hawks was going to e posted.

Now there really IS a new Hawk.

Puts them over the cap.

is Stan putting all his eggs in the Raanta basket for 2014-2105?

It was pretty much a given that the Hawks were looking for a #2G after the Razor went east, Khabibulin was a card that played very close to the vest.

Agree with what STL wrote just below your response to my response.

I don't know. I'm sure what he does in Rockford will determine that.

Sorry, you're wrong.

Karlsson signed to play in Sweden next season.
- EKolb13

What is with this Karlsson block so many have? How many times has it been pointed out here he is not an option?

Do people just show up to post 1 item without reading anything?

Any of these people ever even see Karlsson play?

Not into bashing band wagoners but is there any other explanation?

Sure, it had to be repaired. He spent the '11-'12 season skating around with it stuck up his ass

Nice one....
