I never noticed or remembered him on the pk in years past......

Sharp lead the league in shorties in 09 or 10, I can't remember which. He was one of the top 4 forwards on our team.

Why use Sharp when Q has Hanzus to lose faceoffs and pretty much stand still in the 4 man box up top !!!!!!!!! I'm so sick of hearing what a great penalty killer Hanzus is with his long reach .... even a blind squirrel finds a nut once in awhile. I'm hoping this is his last hurrah and Quenneville wakes up in the playoffs and uses some speed to pressure the puck on the PK, like everybody does to us. ie..... Patrick Sharp !!

I used to umpire baseball when I was young. Working with the youngest ages was often a nightmare because of the "Vicarious Parent". Things got much easier when I called games with high school and college age players, because the parents were less involved. The kids were rarely a problem at any age.

81 of the last 92 = 88%.

Something is working that Handzus has a part in.

As TG pointed out a month ago, Sharks taking over the west currently.

And to my chagrin, Hawk fans obsessed with team sending message to Blues etc, when they are fighting for home ice in first round against AVS team which has had plenty of success against them.

I know I am a kill joy and will take the heat. Here is hoping we find some lightening in a bottle with the new guys.

Agreed.

Every team needs it's whipping boys I guess, but Zeus and Brookbank seem to get zero respect around these parts. It's maddening.

I'll agree to this. Losing Kane definitely doesn't help, but it's not the end of the world either. At least I hope it isn't.

hmm. I wonder if I told you to shove that beachball up your ass if its a personal insult or a helpful suggestion?

The Shark board needs some activity. Don't let the door hit you in the ass on the way out.

I know you think you've hit this all figured out, and that you claim to be on some kind of streak with your cup predictions....but the Sharks are losers. Look no further than their loser Captain.

He could at least wait until he sees if he is right before referring to himself in the 3rd person.

When it all plays out as you say, then I will take all the heat. In case you did not realize this is all kind of fun? Well anyways....

The Blues are going to finish with 111 points .


5 more wins for them.


Can the Hawks get to 112 points ? I think that would be asking a lot especially with the injuries. The 2/3 match up with the AVs is a foregone conclusion. Home Ice won't matter that much .

The Hawks should concentrate on gaining a full roster for the playoffs. Even out the ice time , reduce Toews and Keith's time a bit . Get Morin TT Versteeg all the 3-4 liners as much ice time as possible.

I'd split Crow and Raanta down the stretch too. Don't want crow exhausted like hew as going into the Phoenix series.

Nah, no insult taken.

In fact you may get a free upgrade on this board for calling me names.

Just calling it as I see it.

Maybe I should just try to be cool and ask "what do you think is on TT's Ipod? What is his favorite band?

The Blues have been a more consistent team all year.

We are left to now hope that the Super Fin picks up where Kane left off and some guy from college nobody, not even Phil who lived next door to the guy, knew existed, is somehow going to be part of the magic formula. So be it...fun stuff.

I kind of like when you do call me names. I can't believe on a hockey board we can't rub Elbows every now and again.

The woosification of America!

I would have thought that TT would have had the Scorpions Wind of Change on his ipod when he stepped off the plane?

Bring home a win boys, I know it will make you sad, I will be watching tape delay. Have a family function. Have fun with that. And don't censor anyone for razzing me reffs. We are big boys.

I think Johns is going to be a free man - ND losing to Lowell 4-0 late in the third.

Unless there's another tournament after Hockey East.
