Cam Ward excellent again. STL is on a rampage right now so they still need to win basically 75% of their games the rest of the way to make the Tournament

Hawks aren't chasing STL at this rate. More like Minnesota. If STL keeps this up there's gonna be one WC spot up for grabs and the Hawks have a shot

Yup.... gotta give credit to Ward, he's been playing well lately. Depending on Crawford's health I could see Ward coming back next season.

If they play hard for the rest of the season I'll be less concerned about them making the playoffs or not.

Well Gramps, you got me beat by 21, and I'm almost twice as old as some of these posters.

Kinda crazy, at my age it feels like time is flying by, I think back to when I was 26-27 it feels like yesterday in that amount of time I'll be 51 and I cant even imagine that, heck I still feel like a late 20's or early 30-something tho I'm pushing 40. I suppose this next year I'll be getting the black "over the hill" gag gifts, and that is a scary thought because that nonsense is for "old people" and I'm not old...

Hahahaha, I just had 8 consecutive birthdays tonight.

In my defense, I'm here more for games and in the morning. I have gotten a lot better than when I first started.

We better sign Ward for next year now before he asks for $5 mil.

Tarasenko is almost as hot as Kane right now too. Has two more goals again tonight
- GPHawksfan


I’ve got the Russian Tank on my fantasy hockey team so I’m well
Aware of his scoring streak. STL is finally getting good goaltending with Binnington too.

Breadman back in town Saturday night!

Dallas might fall out of their spot. St Louis probably gonna take 3rd from them soon.

ward has been outstanding: two games in a row where he has faced over 40 sog's with many high quality chances

the hawks holding any team under 3 takes a monster effort from the goalie

i think they are 14-0-4 when they hold teams to 2 or less in regulation

Agreed on both counts. All you can ask for is compete level and entertainment as a fan. They’ve been providing plenty of entertainment value for the last 6 weeks.

I hope Artie has as good a game Saturday as he did tonight. Tortz will be begging Jarmo to set up a trade.

Apparently touched a nerve. Think I pulled a muscle bending down to touch it, tho.

Well, another win for the Hawks. Not pretty but it’s in the win column. Ward super solid... 88, I mean words cannot describe his talent or meaning to the team. If you’re looking for pure meaningfulness to a team, he should be league MVP. Without Kane, the Blackhawks are the worst team in hockey.

As of right now they’re sitting 2 points out. Don’t trade any young assets for temporary help but don’t make any tank deals either. Lots of very winnable games coming up (most at home). Go out and earn your way into the playoffs and grow as a team.

Also very big mention to Saad. That short-handed goal was tremendous! Big time speed, strength and determination. He’s a playoff type hockey player that will excel when the checking tightens up.

Thanks to everyone for welcoming my posts. Go Hawks!

Unfortunately NJ on a back to back at Minnesota Friday night. Looks like a Wild win.
