One less thing to worry about on Monday...nice job JJ....Edmonton worries me big time.

When a tesms consistency last andalways an underdog it should worry some. Edmonton has everything to prove and not much to loose.

Are you there God? It's me TheNugeIsHuge. I ask you to grant Sam Gagner with the god-like skill he owned on February 2, 2012 against the Chicago Blackhawks. Then, like gagner's 8 point night, the defeating of the undefeated(in regulation) blackhawks, will go down in history.

but at the same time, I'd understand if EDM got destroyed. The hawks are red hot! I hope they fair well without hallsy

You guys don't stand a chance. We have you right where we want you... all overconfident and stuff...



6-2 hawks

Yeah those games last year were combination Three Stooges/Keystone Cops with Sam Gagner channelling some serious Great One in the 8 pt game.

Not fun to watch...as a Hawk fan anyway.

Preach on Brother

Gonna be a tough game tomorrow night! Hope the guy's are ready to skate. This could be the game that we didn't want to see coming. Visions of 9-2 floating in my head from last year...

What I've been wondering lately, as this team sits at 15-0-3 with three-eighths of the season in the books, is whether we see this same level of play from the Hawks had the season started on time back in October. The first week or so, many teams looked rusty after the long layoff, but it's been over a month now and the Hawks are still finding ways to win and against very good teams, I might add. Either way, it's in the past and I'm glad to see them playing so well. The only thing better than a remarkable start is a remarkable finish in June. Let's keep it going!

Let me preface this by saying I LOVE Brandon Saad... but...

Am I the only one who would much prefer Dan Carcillo on the first line with Toews and Hossa?

Hawks need incentive for this game: 1-3 vs the Oil last year....GA = 24.

a-men

The bad ice will neutralize the speed of these teams - at least in the scoring chances.

gotta remember that Hallsy had 4 points in that 8-4 game, and 3 points in that 9-2 game. Hall missing is huge. Also gotta remember that they were two flukey games, and the blackhawks have (IMO) the best team in the league, and unless there's another underdog crazy run like LA had last year, CHI'll win the cup

Hope it doesn't come down to a shootout...HOLY PHUCK
