1st? Yes!

Morning John,
A hotly anticipated game tonite (by me, at least), want to see if the Hawks are ticked off enough by getting their streak broken by Colorado. Loved to see the Hawks break out against Dallas but worried they may be looking for some of those tallies tonite.

I think, btw, we're finally seeing the Nick Leddy I hoped we would be seeing. And it is no question or surprise that he is at his best with Rozsival as his D partner. Watching those 2, Rozy seems to have taken the kid under his wing and helped him a great deal. Rozy's signing might have been Stan's best going into this season.

Think there is anything to be had on BUFs roster?

They are in full freefall now

I really question why the owner partnered with Vancouver. That was a really bad mistake.

Ott would look great in an Indian Head

And I'm guessing Orr is who the Hawks might want from Toronto? No one else really makes sense given what Bowman has stated recently.

+1 could not agree more
Rozsival is a mean sob with skill and provides leddy a degree of protection
Also helps that the coaching staff has taken the shackles off his game.
With leddy's speed he can mosly/always get back defensively when he moves into the offensive zone

Also, just looked this morning -- has anyone else noticed that Soupy a MINUS 20 with a total of 17 points (6G, 11A)

And Leddy is a PLUS 13 (good for 22nd in the NHL) with a total of 12 points (3G, 9A). Average TOI is just under 17 min game.

I like how the Wolves announcers are ripping Morin but don't say a word about #32 on the Wolves bench..

In fairness to Campbell, he is playing on a bad team that is bad in part because they've been decimated by injuries at every position. 2/3 of their top line done for the year, their starting goalie missing significant time, Jovo, Fleishmann, and others...that's an awful lot to overcome.

Could leddy make the olympic team because with his speed he would be fun to watch with all that open ice?

Is Leddy a trade target at the deadline by other teams?

He is probably the most obvious candidate for an RFA offer sheet this summer.

All teams are looking for good puck handling Dmen able to run a power play.

Can the Hawks get more for him at the deadline than this summer? He is worth a 1st and a good roster player.

Or, will the Hawks move someone else and find a way to pay the big bucks Leddy's agent will ask?

Dude, Jay McClement is one of the best PKers in the league and pretty good on draws (though he's having an off year at 47% this year). He's also a good shot blocker.

Jones is skating on the fourth line and Hejduk is back for a Mitchell, Stastny, Hejduk third line.

Great preview as usual JJ. Wondering if Colborne/Bozak may be the target in Leaf land.

Andrej Sustr is now a free to sign as an undrafted free agent after University of Nebraska-Omaha was eliminated. 6'8" RH Defensive D-man.

Looks like someone the Hawks could use. Question is if he is a good puck mover

Made some enemies at AllState yesterday (gotta watch my P's and Q's since I have Rush ST's too). Lots of dirty looks when I cheered the 2 goals and then at the end was screaming [rhetorically], "Where is Bollig?!"

No, the real question is if he has an "active stick?"

Probably has a 7'+ wingspan plus nearly a 6' stick, heck, he might be able to "active stick" guys at the blue line from top of the circle.
