Half the lower bowl Hawks fans in recent games here.

I have no problem with Brookbank playing, but don't want him playing wing. Q off his meds again?

Ugh.

He must be deep in the dog house.

Then send him down and let him play in the "A".

Exactly where my handle came from. WTF is the guy thinking? Brookbank is playing better this year, but he's no third line forward. And Q had problems with STALBERG in that spot???

Agreed, unless this benching is just to light a fire under Morin's ass.

I would think sending him down would light an even bigger fire.

Yes but how long do you do it for?

I don't either. It's just my opinion that if Morin isn't going to get playing time in Chicago, then he should be on the first bus to Rockford. It isn't going to do him any good to be in the press box long term. I'd hope if he doesn't play tomorrow that he gets sent down to get playing time.

Frankly, one of Brookbank or Rozsival should've been sitting tonight and playing tomorrow.

Agreed, it would. However, if the intention is to keep him up in Chicago, then a couple of games in the pressbox might do the trick too.

Not more than a couple of games. That's just my opinion.

On the other hand, 10 minutes isn't going to wear out Brookbank. It might just keep him enough in the flow that he starts for Roszival tomorrow and Morin returns with some fire. Best case, anyway. Should be a good one tonight!

I know, but it fit

I don't agree with Q dressing Brookbank over Morin last game, if Morin is going to be on the roster then he needs to be playing.

I'm hoping Q is only dressing Brookbank against Dallas because of the possibility Hammer's injury flares up and he can slide him back to D.

Should be a great game tonight.

I've seen one of those before - there were 2 kinds - one you had to use a sharp pointy thing on - the other you put into a slot - and somehow music came out.

How quaint.

I hope that album isn't floating around on your ipod.

I still use one of those quaint devices on a regular basis.
