The Rado feed showed a behind the net shot of the PP goal. No real traffic, Crow barely moved his glove hand as it whizzed by. He simply is not tracking/picking the puck up.......... I'd yank him. 2nd goal waaaaaaaaaaaaay to slow to react to the rebound and get to the post. ........ 1st goal he saw all 40 feet of it.

It's the tryptothan I tell you. Maybe Lehner had ham for dinner yesterday. Put him in.

Seems to. Fourth line working hard getting us back into the game. Smith has not been a bad guy on that fourth line over the last couple weeks.

Hey 19 how about getting out to your point man with a little urgency on the PP goal and deflect that shot. Wayyyyyyy too much spacing allowed to the points on the PK as usual.

They just showed the Av's first goal which has now been attributed to MacKinnon and lo and behold it was Gustafsson who watched Mackinnon go to the front of the net and deflect the puck. He just stood there with that stupid open mouth agape look.

Scoring chances are 9-3 and we’re at home and they’re missing 1/2 of their roster.

What a (frank)ing joke

We suck. Our team is awful. No more excuses. We are who we are.

Toews on pace for 39 points over 82 games.

DeBrincat on pace for 16 goals over 82 games.


Hahaha Gustafson.

Never, EVER wear the black uni's in a game again, looks they (the uni's) are screening Crow.

You know, the black unis work FOR the Hawks in the offensive zone.

And the color of the Blackhawk sweaters is not one of their problems.

Nichushikn catches Gus flat footed at the Avs blue line, blows past him and scores.

The problems today are except for Kane and a bit of depth scoring, they have no offense and little offensive pressure; and their goalie can’t keep them in it today.

Gusto really doesn't belong in the NHL. February 24th can't come soon enough

Optimism draining performance today.

DeBrincat seems to be floating in the d-zone. LOoks lost or half speed. Toews too

I then the game on and it wasn't even half way through the first 2-0

Now it's 4-1 . I'm trying to understand what value and impact toews plays? He clearly lost a step in the FO dept which caused Colorado to go up 3-1 watching him meander around months ice during the power play and 5 on 5 he brings no drive or determination to score or create chances.

Gus should be traded .

Yeah I’m done defending Gus. He’s awful. I’ve seen enough. We’re past the 20 game mark and it’s time to start giving honest assessments of individual players and the team as a whole.

That look on Toews face before the commercial break says it all. He KNOWS how bad this team is, and he knows there’s no fixing it. It ain’t the one thing.

True Grit popping in to tell us Gustafsson isn’t a problem in 3..2..1

Time for a drink. See you tomorrow.

Try moving Toews to 4th line for a period. Make Strome DeBrincat fourth line for next game. Too often they are bad. Let them get mad over it. Get your sh*t together or suffer the consequences. They are letting down the team. They are not bigger than the team. They need to be shown that they cannot get away with poor effort

Gus same thing. Maybe the GM should allow a whisper to get through to Gus: will not get a nice big contract the way that he is playing.

So instead of firing up teamates Toews pouts and gives poopy effort.

one of my friends looked it up...we’re 3-0-0 in those unis in last three when used

Embarrassed on home ice again.... what a f****** joke... the Blowman McD era is over... changes need to be made.... fast

At least Rocky is there in person to watch this debacle-
Great goaltending this year has masked many short comings

Time for a drink. See you tomorrow.

What a joke of a team . Where are all you koolaid drinkers,from a week ago who thought they were turning it all around .

me too, this is sad. They belong in the AHL. lol A grade of D for effort and game plan. i don't understand it. We will see what happens tomorrow. Gus sits for KK. These games, can't tell if Hawks playing so bad or Avs playing so great.

Screw Gus.

The last five games including this one - only 3 goals scored (out of a total of 8) by a top-6 forward.
