Who is this number 11 guy? Seems JC got through to him.

Zegras or Turcotte need centerman depth in the system another young d man would not be bad at all in byram. Center to me needs to be address beyond Barrett but with style of play and edge to his might be better as a wing but we ll see.

I’m still not used to “turn of the century” not being 1900.

Dear Lord that’s a (frank)ing soft penalty call.

LOL, please dont get frigging PowerEnforcer worked up.

Perlini wants to see those hats flying into his old team’s bench. Flying!! God damn do they look good and god damn do Yotes look bad!

yotes have played well of late...won 8 of 9 and not giving up many goals..

JC and a heavy dose of "lighten up, Francis" mentoring from Anisimov and a metaphorical reading of the "Free Solo" movie.

Perlini as Coach said has the package. Size, speed, shot.
Hopefully he's finally finding the shift/out mental desire.
If he does....LOOK OUT.

JC took him to the woodshed a few times. But what it did with him a 3 games ago was damn good coaching.

Started the game on one of the bottom lines. Made some nice, small, simple plays that were nothing more than effort. A few shifts later he bumped him up with Strome and Dinky. Since then he has 5 goals and looks like a completely different player.

The glides are gone.

And now throws him out on the PK. i think JC knows what he doing.

With some guys like Perlini and AA going right now, the Hawks have some very good offensive depth too. Arizona has given chances, but the Hawks have been executing really well when they get those chances.

Ever see AA on the bench when the music is playing? He is bopping all over the place.

Wolf you were right...Chychryn should’ve hit the showers early...he’s having an awful game.

I will take that but Frolik didn't need to learn how to play defense. He was already good at it.
- Elbows15

Well yes and no, I've heard Hossa interviewed and say it was a big difference playing for the Wings because they expected you to play a certain way defensively, i imagine that's what happened to Frolik. But i guess his offensive production took a hit because he forgot how to score.

yes

yes

No.

Respectfully, Frolik is from the Hossa mold. He was a solid 2 way player when he got here. For many their historical point of view starts when a guy arrives in Chicago. Fro was solid beyond the head band eyebrows long before.
- TrueGrit

Interesting you criticize about a Frolik reference calling him a grinder, than you say Frolik is a really good hockey player pre Blackhawks? Yet he only got about 12 13 minutes a night which is bottom 6 role? Maybe you should have another drink. True contrarian

Yes, and he's especially fond of the song ORANGE Crush.

I know some want losses at this point, and I see why. But this is fun, and it suggests good stuff for next year. I wanna see them mess up some teams' playoff situations the rest of this season.

I mean, you don't think we'll go 13-0 after tonight and make the playoffs?

Playoffs or bust!

now if only sikura find the net a few times...he may escape the buzz doghouse and all will be well

The minute Drake can play, Sikura sits

Probably not.

LOL San Jose awarded a penalty shot. The play was offside. San Jose scores on the penalty shot. Minnesota challenges saying the play is offside. The play is ruled that you cannot challenge because you can only challenge an offside when a goal is scored. Boudreau is blowing a gasket.

The yotes are who i thought they were

Yotes are garbage
