Confidence too. That's Boqvist's biggest issue imo

I guess he's almost three years older.

Many Hawks players with more jump in their step tonight. I hope they can keep the game competitive.

For sure, smooth and smart!!

Every pass is right on the tape.

First dangerous shift of the season (that I recall) for Kane and AdB (with Suter).

Agreed, he plays too timid. Defensive shortcomings have always been an issue for him, but the Hawks need to let him play to his strengths too!!

It would help if the idiot coach would realize he isn't coaching Boqvist for this season but for seasons down the road.

That too!!

Delia still reminds me of a poor reincarnation of Mike Palmateer. Every save is an adventure.

Imagine that when they show a little aggression and skating on the penalty kill they can stop these guys even

dafuq is Strome doing? He caused that with a totally stupid pass back to Dinky. Guy is covered and flat-footed. What the (frank) is suppose to do with that pass?

Suter has looked decent so far IMO. Not perfect but he seems to have some good hockey sense I think.

Pretty unconventional style, he is very quick and athletic, remember that from a couple of years ago.

I have come to the conclusion that we have no idea what Dmen on the Hawks are suppose to be doing. Sadly, I am not sure they do either.

(frank). Karashev is their best forward tonight. Lol.

Kurashev needs to play permanently, let Pirri lead Rockford in scoring!!

Good 1st period. Kurashev with some good shifts, hopefully Pirri doesn’t see the ice with Hawks again. Mitchell looks really good as well.

I really like the way our 4 th line plays. Too bad we have 3 4th lines.

Unfortunately, not one of them will score 20 points even in an 82 game schedule. Right, on having no top end talent.

Get Hagel playing all the time too, then I will be happy!!

Getting 20 points from a 4th liner is a bonus

With an abbreviated training camp, half of the roster turned over, and a new defensive partner I really don't think it's time to evaluate Boqvist and determine he belongs in the A. We don't know if the stage is too big or if it's confidence. There are 56 games this season and the Hawks are not playing for a cup. Let him play and let's see him play more than two games before we...the great hockey scouts of Hockeybuzz determine what he needs....just sayin.

That is why Delia is an AHL goalie. As I sai. A poor mans Mike Palmateer

Crawford did that many times too though.

I don t care how many saves you make doing the splits, that kind of play just demoralizes your team
