I knew that piece of poop would score. He can die now.

He would have to clear waivers - and with his contract, I don’t think he would.

easy. it pre-season and no one ever thought Sikura was a defenseman. Plus, Wilson can skate. Even if he is a giant POS

Perlini goes down more than a hooker working shore leave.

Wilson is a nasty player but he can play and he would have bull rushed through most of the d-men in the NHL on that play - Sikura had one chance and that was to poke check the puck but Wilson didn't give him that chance.

There were some good takeaways and some not so good takeaways - but it's only the first game so hopefully the not so good takeaways improve sooner than later.

Happy to learn today that labor disputes are temporarily in the rear view mirror. What a thrill to see our team again, after a long hot summer.

Indeed. I despise the business side of sports. I know it's part of it, but just rather talk hockey and thankfully now we can.

5.88x3 for Boeser.

STEAL but these RFAs are definitely playing the "UFA" game with the salary in their last year the required next Q/O

Perlini was useless tonight.

The guy I really liked tonight was Highmore. Don't care if he did not produce any points because his play was solid. Looks a lot like Bolland the way he plays.

Perlini did lead the team with 8SAT, 5 on net, and was credited with 2 hits, for whatever those numbers are worth.

Lol great analysis . My take on the game. I thought Nylander and Saarela played a good game . Boqvist offensively is fun to watch but he still needs more work on his defensive side and needs to bulk up a bit.

Perlini was useless as 2 tits on a bull. Chicago played a great 1st period , but after that the team as a whole as well as coaching lacked any consistency going forward, simple mistakes at their own blue line , running around in their own end which cost them a goal , bad penalties .

The 4th line was non existent IMO.
Sikura I liked his knowledge to cover for boqvist on defense , but still waiting for him to light the lamp and show he is come into this year better prepared .


Delia was just okay nothing special about his game considering he gave up 4 goals

You wonder why people don't believe that you're not here to argue.

Gusto looks a bit bigger this year even stronger. More physical along the boards

Jake Gardnier signed ~4M x3.

What's Gus's next contract look like?

I think Gardner's situation was affected by a history of back problems. But Gus is going to get paid.

I don't think Magic Gus looked bad last night.

Excuse me? Every time I post something you always come back with a snide and insulting comment. Your always starting arguments. Just like yesterday your first comment was directed in a negative way. How about you grow up for once.

Thought he had a decent night also. Little to no errors under pressure. I was poised to get irked once again, but it never transpired.

Is Kirby Dach staying somewhere with Kim Johnsson? No mention of him since the first day of camp. I figured there would be some kind of update on him. I am just really surprised there hasn't been anything from the Hawks on him.

Someone posted earlier that the Hawks don't give updates on players in the concussion protocol.

Same hahaha!! I think he could be paired with Keith, so hopefully he keeps up this steady play.

How have you been, Gabe?

NHL Network is showing a replay of the game. It's already 3-3 toward the end of the second period.
