WOW. Dach, Saad and Stromer. I wanna see more of that. This 77 kid has a future in the NHL, slowly becoming a triple for Stan on that pick, if not a home run.

Saad on the pp. Wow, is that 3 ppg's?

ADB turns it over at the blue line again.

Another Carpenter turnover at the blueline

Flukey. Oh well.

Gotta say this is fun to watch even if a bit frustrating.

And hes right back out there with Kane and Saad

How an NHL coach on the bench doesnt identify that is pathetic

I have seen enough of Special K. Let's get Gilbert back up here or Tuuola.
- Elbows15

Gilbert needs to start playing well and one of his biggest problems is coverage. Become good in knowing and doing it well in the AHL then he deserves another NHL trial

I have been pineing for Tuuola and he is an improved player this season; however I am wondering if his improvement continues since earlier in this season

He can provide some iof each element but basicly he is or was more inclined to be a puck moving offensive dman who covers well and can be mean. AEL_FOX could provide an update whether Tuuola has continued to improve this season. I have a hunch he is a surprise effective NHL third pair one day.

So how many goals tonight is because of the “system”, and how many because of dumb hockey

Didn’t there used to be goalie interference penalties?

That’s twice tonite a Blue had run over Crawford.

I expect a lot of games like this from here on out. At least they are entertaining.

Not happy about that shot personally.

LOL for sure.

That wasn't accidental either. He chicken winged him. Steen has always been a dirty POS

That's system. And that's players not being put in the best position to succeed

Crow should of done a Mike Smith

Dach looks really frustrated out there. Wish he could get one just to lighten him up a bit.
- Chunk

Sometimes it looks like neither Strome or Dach are playing Center. I wish they would just play Toews, Dach, Strome and Carp at center. Play Kampf on a wing or sit him in the press box.

Agree. That was a garbage shot. I can only assume no one noticed it. Steen should have been eating someones fist (calling Vandermeer23).

Out of the five 50-50..

Watch STL move the puck with actual purpose. Either stick to stick or in/out of the zone. They pass with confidence because they know their responsibility

Then watch the hope passes the Hawks make. Consistently stepping out of position to make hits/intercept passes (that's missed). The turnovers at blueline non stop this late in a season is pathetic. This team is playing on instinct alone

Maatta, Carpenter biff the rebound and in the net

I mean how awful is the coverage in front of the net...time after time, grade A chances right out front...brutal coaching

Carpenter is leading all Hawks forwards in ice time.

Over 17min

Relax, the Hawks are almost in range of a field goal here.

That's a weird stat.

Players play. These guys have been pros for years - they should know how to protect the goalie without coaching.
