Beauty pass by 8 and 15 going to the net on all 3 for his hat trick! Toews is just pathetic. He falls down every shift and isn't even working hard defensively. Used to be my favorite player. Wtf happened to this guy???

See, youre being too harsh and then he scores

and the bobby prize goal goes to #19...how appropriate...

So what about...

Saad Toews Kane
Cat Anisimov Schmaltz
Sharp Hayden Panik
Bouma Wingles Hartman

Still a crap game from 19 overall. Just no wheels, no strength, no offensive playmaking and no hunger/drive.

Great game by 15, also I thought 5 was very steady and reliable tonight. Forsling and Rutta a solid pairing thus far and Franson showing his value offensively from the point getting shots on goal for 2nd chance opportunities.

to much (frank)n drama the last 3 games...but hey at least they can score...

two regressions to the mean going on: hawks scoring = good, craw = bad

Agree with all this, but Forsling was more than solid. He was outstanding. He had one loafer pass in his own zone Crow had to manage, but otherwise he was masterful.

Toews was a waste tonight. It sucks he got the ENG, because he sure as hell didn't deserve it. I blame Q for even putting him out there in that situation. Reward the guys who busted their hump. Toews obviously not being held accountable for his poor play.

Agreed on all points.

...and the irony is that one of my jerseys that I own says Toews

Seabrook last among defensemen with 16:26 TOI - Q is seeing what everyone is seeing.

For all the rubber Crawford has had to stop from that poop blue line so far, he deserves to be let off the hook or a bit here...

so Q has to spot play a guy making 7 mildo for the next 6 plus years....WONDERFUL

Nice game by Arty, good things happen when you go to the net.

Defense still a work in progress, really like the defenseman executing immediate shots to the net any chance the get.

Not a fan of Franson, whatever.

- bogiedoc

That figures....that's a shot that Toews still has in his bag....way to go 19.
The CORE was just BRUTAL again. Kane, Toews, Sharp, Keith and Seabrook just plain lousy. The 2 Leaders Toews and Seabrook really lead the way in BAD. What on earth is wrong with these 2 guys ? If they're injured, get off the ice. Other than that, no explanation.

So what about...

Saad Toews Kane
Cat Anisimov Schmaltz
Sharp Hayden Panik

Toews and Kane 3rd line !!!!
Wake the heck up Superstars !!

All this Toews and Seebs Hate makes me sick ,just a bunch of front runners . 2 weeks ago 1/2 this board wanted AA traded slow makes to much money ,now he's god .. What a bunch of band wagoner's.Great game by the HAWKS top to bottom AA FROSLING Debrincat the 3 stars in my book . With a few tweaks this line -up as Constructed can be very good . Drag Q into the present and we have a chance . GO HAWKS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

2nd highest paid player in the NHL looked like a 3C tn. FAR from good enough from 19. Seabrook didn't play much but besides getting walked by Nash he was Ok.

I guess u would rather AA out there losing a draw at that time .

At least he gave effort tonight. Toews' play was lazy and pathetic. His teammates picked him up. Sorry you can't handle critical commentary. It's a message board. There were some great things...AA, Forsling to name two. Forsling is really coming along.

He was paid for what he accomplished , in a era that the cap was expected to go up !! Better then what other teams are doing now paying for what they hope their players may accomplish .

What are you their agent? Or are blinded by fandom?

Ive been calling for Toews head for over a year and half....just saying
Kane, no issue.
AA no issue but could be trade bait?
Seabs, major issue - needs to go.
Q - needs to move along as he will not change.

Nonsense. You should be paid WHAT YOU ARE WORTH. That's how pay works. Going on that silly idea, the Oilers should still be paying Wayne Gretzky. Seabrook is horrifically overpaid.

Enzo, sometime it's best to watch a hockey game and enjoy it instead of critiquing every play and player on the home side. Its entertainment and if I would have paid for tickets I would be going home happy with for the money spent.

9 goals scored, lots of speed, good & bad goaltending, odd man rushes, some terrific individual efforts, some horrible puck management - on both sides. Helluva lot better than watching a 2-1 game played by teams who love the neutral zone trap.

And Forsling was great tonight, awesome to see.

Oh I can handle pal ,just don't like front runners to much .. Like I said 1/2 this board wanted AA traded dumped whatever , but tonight he's god !!

It's normal dude. Fans react, get over it man. Even though they don't see the same rainbows and unicorns you do doesn't mean they are front runners or bad fans. Anisimov was great tonight. I know the drill with him. He'll be great for about 2-3 weeks, then vanish for 2-3 weeks. I am glad he did well tonight, but if someone wanted to pony up something for him I'd still trade him tonight for the right deal.
