Will be fun to see Jurco play tonight. Can't say I have ever seen him play.

Still hoping for my H line
Hanzal Hartman and Hossa

Yikes
- Colbyboy

With Hinostroza in the wings to fill in for injuries or
poor play.......that would make them the 4 H Club !!

On a more somber note, Bill Paxton dies at 61 from complications after surgery. Enjoy life as if its your last day. RIP

The Habs can't score and they think Hanzal is the answer for that issue? Yikes, Bergevin must be really worried about his job. Besides, how can they not be scoring when they have that great 1st line center Phillip Denault that he stole from the Hawks.
- ILGolfer

That might be the kiss of death for Bergevin if he thinks
Hanzel is a scorer. ..lol

Gotta say this again. Q has done a masterful job this year with the young guys and keeping this team rolling.

Messages coming fast and furious:

"To clarify... two things... Hawks will not overbid/pay against other teams interested i.e, Montreal. If (Oduya) is healthy and looks good, Hawks interest increases.

And FYI, Hawks taking calls in bunches today ..."
- John Jaeckel

I tend to think it's better to be taking calls than making calls.

Wait wait no he hates young players oh wait

And I can't wait to see the big, smooth skating and hungry Jurco in a Hawks jersey tonight.

I'm with you on that Rico as everyone loves an underdog obtaining some success

Much different situation this year for Q. He has to play some
rookies, no choice. Let's see who sees ice time once the playoffs
start and if/or veteran help gets acquired.
This trade deadline is crucial for Bowman. It will set up the summer
moves on his troubled CAP scenario.

Dallas is really not good this year.

""Edmonton showed again the formula for how you beat the Hawks. Push them around physically and force them outside."

JJ, if that same game was played the same way 10 more times the Hawks would win 9 out of 10. Hawks clobbered em in every way but on the scoreboard as McLellan himself said.

And the last two cups were won with smallish forwards getting pushed around. If the club can add some size, especially a player who can win some draws, without moving Hartman, Schmaltz or a 1st I'll enjoy paying for my playoff tickets.

All of it!

JO does look to be healthy.

Someone should give the Dallas GM a call and tell him his last name is the number of playoff games his team will get this season.

Interested in LA / Minnie game Monday

LA still on the Buyer Seller Fence

Kings will beat the a Wild on Monday, and again in the 1st round of the playoffs. Blackhawks V. Kings in the 2nd round.

I think the Kings need to qualify for the playoffs first.

Still on the outside look'n in...and not looking like much overall.

DeBricant scored #55

Another Kings/Hawks playoff match up... could you imagine!! The dander would be up.

JO does look to be healthy.

Dallas lost 6-3.

Oduya had 18:28 TOI, including 0:42 on the PK. Looks like he's healthy.

Don't underestimate the Wild
Solid team this year
If they continue to get goal tending I think Hawks play wild if Hawks survive Blues or Nashville

Lot of Hockey to play yet
Stay healthy Hawks!

Erie playing 3rd game in under 48 hours (Friday night, Saturday night, Sunday afternoon). They're up 2-0 half way through the game - gotta be running on fumes.

Crawford will be a Hawk til the end of this season. 99.9% certain.

Bolded is both the key, and emphasis of this JJ Post

We'll see, 3 points out and 21 games to go. If the Hawks beat STL tonight, they are even in games remaining.

They just got their goalie back, and STL may trade one of their top D-men. And I'll take the Kings championship pedigree over any of CLG, STL or NSH.
