Man, I canā€™t even remember who they traded to get Strome. Whoever it was, he sure didnā€™t get to the areas that Strome does.

This team has got me believing again.
Phuck I feel conflicted I was hoping to get a high draft pick. But man playoff hockey is the best thing for these young guys to learn even if they are disposed in the first round.

Theres really no way to sugar coat it...Brent Seabrook is a liability on the ice. Other than #7, an outstanding period from the Home team.

Not even close. Schmaltz is a nice player, but he's niche' level, Strome is more of a complete player.

Meanwhile, Brent Seabrook serving up pizzas all night, he either ices the puck or passes it to the opponents. His game right now is not where he needs it to be.

Wow, the Blackhawks have finally found a team they can beat in Corsi & scoring chances.

Looks like Hughes is going to ANA, DET or OTT.

Good scoring chances, two goals 5x5.

Jeez - if they could only get the PP going....

Yep, you noticed it too!! His play today has been rough to watch. He has no clue what he's doing with the pick in his own zone anymore. He either ices it or sets it up for the other team by passing it to them.

Another game, another lethal period from our top six, especially Strome, Cat and Kahun. Wings had some shots, but mostly easy saves for Ward. He made some tough ones near the end.

They still have work to do like with Gusto down low and no forward recognition of this. The defense at least for one period is doing a good job of rotating and keeping themselves between the goalie and the player and disrupting the strong side of the forwards

Hillman must be sick or injured since he was not in the lineup last two games. Tuulola took hus ola e. Tw Gilbert was one of the star of game choices one of the weekend games. Split vs Tuscon.

Off subject but just recall some neat former and current team names. Old WHA had
Phoenix Roadrunners, Michigan Stagg, and we all knkw all those Canadien cities with great names

Anyone have some favorite ones to mention?

Imagine stuck playing baseball in Walla Walla. Imagine if Wacey Rabbit had made it to the NHL - ok that one is a player nane i couldn't resist.

I am so glad Perlini is playing today. I know everyone dogs him and he did get a unfortunate penalty the other night but he was starting to play well and he has continued to today.

He's made a couple of errors, but mostly Seabrook looked fine. He made some excellent break ups on the side wall and near the blue line that stifled an incoming cycle. I understand people don't like his contract, but if you're failing to see the positive plays he contributes, you have blinders on

Agree. He just needs to keep using his speed and body position. He should be watching Saad all the time and trying to copy him. Saad may not score a point per game or have sexy numbers, but he does mostly everything right out there.

Toews and Kane are dominating as well, it's really nice having 2 scoring lines.

Saad was robbed by the nub of the stick

The one with blinders on is #7 who passed the puck to Debrincat when he was covered 2 shifts in a row. Almost got him killed by Abdeljadrt on one and the 2nd resulted in quality scoring chances against and sustained zone time for the wings. Heā€™s not good.
