Yes, Mohel, it’s still very early, and the NBA has a roster less than half the size as an NHL roster, but it appears the other United Center tenant has turned things around after making a GM & coaching change.

No - after 23 years of delayed GM changes and many coaching changes.

Yeah, I hope the Hawks don't take as long as the Bulls. Best to Mrs. Sage - a friend's wife also just had that procedure a few days ago.

Note to scottak....The Bulls got rid of the GM that built six titles around Mike. About 15 years later they finally got rid of that GM (and the 75th coach since Phil), and now things seem better. Moral of the story to me? Don't count on the next GM being good.

In former Hawk news, Olli Maatta is playing his first game of the season tonight. He's drawing in for Drew Doughty, who had an ugly looking knee injury last night.

Going from Doughty to Maatta is only a slight drop-off.

Near the end of period two and the Icehogs are down again. 5-2 and 22-16 outshot. To all the Nylander fans, he scored his third goal with Reichel assist. The other goal came from Pour, his #2 from Altybarmaken and McLaughlin. Delia in net

UPDATE:
That was final score.

Wow. College football nine OT Illini upset ranked Penn State. After 6th OT they just play two point conversion. Both converted in 8th OT but Penn State failed in 9th OT.

Meaning the end of period two and the Icehogs are down again. 5-2 and 22-16 outshot. To all the Nylander fans, he scored his third goal with Reichel assist. The other goal came from Pour, his #2 from Altybarmaken and McLaughlin. Delia in net

Delia pitching a 78% night. Time to cut him lose altogether.

No Crosby, no Malkin, no Carter, no Letang, no Rust. Up 5-1 on the Maple Loafs.

Coach Sullivan is really coaching.

The Hawks actually looked better against Pittsburgh than the leafs are.

Some people had Pittsburgh as a doormat, but they’re looking pretty good. This is where the Hawks have to improve, the scouting staff has to do a better job of drafting and the team a better job of working with prospects to build their game to NHL levels.

Evan Rodrigues the 4th line scrub winger on the Sabres last year is their #1C tonight.
Backed up by Brian Boyle who has to be at least 38, didn't play last year and continues on medication for the leukemia he was diagnosed with and is in remission. Oh and he just scored.

7-1 now.

Leafs are making my day.

And they’re in cap hell with no money to re-sign Reilly who’s good but not great. Leaf fans are also calling for the coach and GM to be canned.

Good game at Amelie - Avs 3-2 over TBL, half way thru the third.

It’s fun to see two good teams playing well.

If GM Dubas thinks real hard he will see a solution to his team's problems - Dylan Strome. Fits right in - slow, lazy, non physical.

No - after 23 years of delayed GM changes and many coaching changes.

Well technically Arturas took all of a year to turn the Bulls org around. GarPax was finally gutted from the org and low and behold the Bulls are relevant again.

On his first try he hired a coach that was better than any coach since Phil Jackson, Be nice if the Blackhawks accept the fact Stan isn't it since dad has retired and went after the next brilliant hockey mind

As Hawk fans we had a great team for ten years to have fun watching but many of us preferred female doging about them while they were winning instead of enjoying them winning.

And Nylavender. He can have both for a first round pick. Hell throw in DeHaan and Gus.

A team that can't play defense loses 7-1 to an AHL roster. Obviously the coach is a beer leaguer.

Imagine the Leafs loosing all race to puck when Strome is with Tavarez

The longest game. Has to be collegiate football. Today Illini upset ranked Penn State in 9 OT. After 6th IOT only two point conversion and both converted in 8th IT. But Illinois won in 9th OT
