0-5 on the pp...umm...and NO

Great game turned into a joke.

bs penalty call, that should not have been a penalty. i hate the new nhl
sorry hawks you got (frank)ed

That penalty call was absurd. Not even close to an actual slash.

Blown 2-0 lead lucky to get a point with their play in the 3rd. OT was fun but don't like making a penalty call in OT unless it's egregious.

pretty good game by the hawks....had their chances...

19-14-20 can't get it done...chances are there

38-10-12...just ugh...

Tough call. They were letting stuff go in the 3rd for both teams and OT was really exciting, then that call happened.

There were some positives tonight, some things to build on. It looks like they're trying new things on the PP, and it worked on the 5 on 3; so that's good. Giving up the shorty might be related to trying new things. It's too bad. Forsling, Kane, Crawford with solid efforts. Got a point. Good game. Blackhawks were in it the whole way, that's progress too.

They still allow all kinds of picks, now both in the O and D zone. Tampa is not impressive if they had to play be the rulebook.
Stevie Y only knows how to play that way.

new (frank)n rule...touch the skate or shin pad = slash..

3 of those tonight...

Tough loss ,take the point on the road and move on .

Great overall game crew.

They battled hard and kept in it (thanks Corey), when TB pressed in 2nd half of game.

A lot of positives to take away.

Penalty was a joke. Game was over after the Kane turnover led to the shortie at the start of the 2nd. It's been all Tampa since then.

In general I couldn't believe how sloppy the Hawks were with the puck trying to clear the zone for most of the night. Just lazy passes around the end boards not getting out or the chuck up the middle.

No chance for Crawford at all.

Murphy- Solid

Wingers and the 4th Line also solid
- Colbyboy

Murphy looked real good, Toews line is snake bitten.

3rd line needs something, Seabs again meh to ugh.

ticky tacky penalty on 8, Bolts interfered numerous
times all night long no calls.

nevertheless TB looks real good, we only showed up
for 20 minutes. TB won every board battle in the 3rd.

Cooper changed attack all game, Q made no changes

This game would have been done if the Hawks could bury the chances on wide open nets. Schmaltz, Panik, Saad all with wide open nets they've missed. (some of them more than once)

Tampa carried the play but the Hawks had the best chances to find the back of the net and failed.

You wonder why they look good? Any team will look good when they get extra space.

every fan of the hl has to expect their team to lose when its already 3 on 3 then your team gets a penalty. 4-3 its just too much open space. i freaking hate between and all of his silly rules and regulations. i have been a fan since 87-89 era i was quite young can't remember when. teams where tough. our stars didn't get hurt. now they are taking slashing to a new degree. thank you crosby

Hey Bogie...

Sharpie sadly looks like he's done. Meanwhile 19 and 14 are meh at best...Saad looked good. And what's up with Hartman doesn't seem like the same player.

Hawks had a really solid first and then folded up the tents. Again the breakouts and clears were just dreadful most of the night. And the Bolts were pinching up to basically the Hawks blueline especially in the third.

wasn't it last season you could take the pick, but now it's allowed? if (frank)ing stupid
go back to basketball buttman

Fracking zebras are a joke in this league.

yep...missed chances and special teams cost em tonight...

is the way the bolts play every game...shoot out style; i guess its worked so far...

He did. Commenting on this tomorrow.

But, on another note - I did call this game to go into OT.

Good game but not the result we wanted. Lots of positives in the game - Crawford, Murphy, Forsling, good PK and good overall performances from lines 1,2,4.

That third line is lacking. No issues with DeBrincat, but Hartman isn’t a centre and Sharp needs to sit out a few games.

its a style the hawks like to play...but they can't and the bolts are better at it...craw kept em in it...but the missed chances and open looks...damn..


this is one of those games that could have 5-2 either way...
