So Kalynuk was suppose to keep following his guy, and someone else was suppose to cover the guy who scored.

Would have to see the replay, just commenting that other teams play man on man and sometimes the D follow who they picked up all the way to the Blue Line.

Difference I’d Carolina’s forwards are interested in playing defense, Hawks forwards in general do not.

How about some movement to open up some shooting lanes?

Three Bad goals given up - on Lankinen, on Murphy, on Kalynuk.

43 SATs (all strengths) - 17 blocked, 12 missed, 14 (1/3) on net.
5x5 - 30 SATs, 12 blocked, 10 missed, 8 on net.

Aren’t going to score many with those stats.

Agreed. They had plenty of times & room to collapse the pk'ers, but kept passing back. Push them back.

I'm conflicted with the 5 man unit. 1 needs to stay in the blue, either Dach or Strome or both. They had 3 sharp shooters with them.

I agree with some of our forwards not interested in playing defense, i wonder if Kalynuk recognized to many white jerseys in an area unfortunately couldn't recover fast enough to cover for whoevers guy that was

Wasn’t it his guy - Stecher, defenseman, he was covering him then drifted away after Stecher passed the puck.

Like to see Connolly get some time with Kane maybe

Kane, Kirashev, Kubalik. Just watching Detroit dance all over the zone.

Nice recovery Keith after activating.

Just throw everything at the damn net.

Third off the post. Hawks got Parkey at the tdl?

This minor league team has no clue how to play defense. Losing to Detroit!

The "Hawks" fan, using a laughing emoji, showing up for another loss right on cue ... never a positive word. Kinda weird?

Defense has been ok in general - 3 blown plays resulted in the 3 goals.

Who is Parky? I'm trying to think about who you might mean?

No worries, he’ll be back after the next loss, along with the other guy that was here earlier. Some people just need to get a life. Detroit has been playing well, but this was a must win.

I`m just saying they don't want to play defense, they may have have great hustle and try to play their best but defense wins games and this team needs to learn that. Every time someone says something negative about the team they get offended.

Bears kicker, on a playoff game winning kick, no time left on clock, he hit the upright then crossbar.

It’s okay to give criticism, just not 100% of the time. We all get on certain players, but also give credit when due.

Don't know why you would not try Connolly in the top 6 you need the game your Hagel idea was not working Hagel better off in the bottom 6 and Connolly can score scored last game Oh well Preds lost hope Stars do also .Some weird results tonight was it a full moon .Wings have been playing much better of late I think that Mantha deal will work out well for them in the future

When supposed Blackhawk fans were constantly complaining when the Hawks were winning three cups I figured that’s what Board of Doomers do. Now instead of understanding the Hawks are rebuilding the Doomers are complaining again.

Okay I agree with that. But they can't keep playing this terrible defense going into next season, I have let this season go and hope for some help with some good signings this off season to remedy this.

Just don't want the team to go through what the Oilers and Islanders went through for years.

I've been very impressed with Lankinen all year, but I think it's time to give Subban the net in 2 or 3 in a row.

I guess you can't be critical of the team anymore, only happy talk.
