He did that Friday too. There was an article in the Trib about it today. Got him the first goal Friday.

It did and it can work (see Andrew Shaw) but I don't see DeBrincat being as big of a pain to play against at the front of the nest as Shaw.

If they are looking for a guy to shoot pucks in off of they should put Strome there. Bigger target.

Stars are always between Hawks and the goalie in their zone - Hawks continuously leave opponents alone in front of Crawford / Lehner.

yes they do...and the stars don't score alot but there defense is very good as well as their goaltending...

lehner/crow the best player for the hawks again and again...

i can see it as a short term thing or give him different opps or looks...

but do they really want a sniper like that to get pushed around and beaten up around the net given his size...c'mon

adb with net presence on the screen...WTF

Yeah, you need a big body there, not sure I agree with that strategy either.

No 2nd line SATs in the 1st.

In his last 20 games, Carpenter - playing mostly with Kane, I think - has 4 points - 1 goal.

Other than Toews line, it seems that Colliton’s other triplets aren’t being very productive - witness that in only 3 of the last 9 games (2+5+2=6 points out of 18) have they scored more than 2.

I agree, a 5’7” guy is not your traditional pick to place there. Guess they are just trying to get his goal scoring going.

Further proof the HC has no clue.

I didn't realize Johns had been out 22 months with a head ijury. Pat just said he was getting back

Another goal taken away on a weak call.

They stripes aren’t anti-Hawk - they’re incompetent.

Whom is your choice to score the most goals this season: Ovechkin or Pasternick?

Wow. Have seen a lot of INT calls the last week or so but that wasn't one.

Traditionally yes. Shaw was an exception I think but better suited to handling the punishment than Dinky. Don't think it's a great strategy either.

Total HS call on Toews though.

Kubalik!!!

Kane to Kubes!

I just want Hossa to be his personal trainer.

This team is so maddening. How come they couldn't play this good to start the game?

Man that would be perfect. From your mouth to God's ear

Except for the whole signing Lehner long term mistake.

now that is a legit int call...5 stars pens...well you know what will happen in the 3rd...

hawks are going to get called for a couple..
