Not only are they not very good, they are boring to watch.

This performance tonight is an abortion. Period.

I suspect this team will eventually lose a game 10-0 this year.

im just glad im not dropping $300 bucks US to watch this crap live.

Really? SO what is Detroit's reason for beating the poop out of us tonight? Did you just watch whatever that was in the 2nd period? This team is a (frank)ing joke. PERIOD.

I don't know enough about who has left/joined their team in past couple of years to speculate on why they went from losing to doing much better this year.

For our own team, I was just trying to think of why we seem to collapse completely when we get behind in games. That's the exact opposite of what would happen when we were winning. We'd get behind, the team would turn on the afterburners in the 3rd, and end up winning the game. In fact, at one point, I though they were getting addicted to the rush of coming from behind and relied on it too much.

That's a winner's mindset and it's built into the culture of the team (or was). The opposite can happen to people on teams that are always losing. And, we don't have a lot of players or coaches who have come from recently successful teams.

I bought the NHL pass to watch all the games. Not a big deal, but I can't stomach this trash, this is akin to 2006.

The Hawks have been the inferior team many periods

And its not the lack of talent.

Only fools will by tickets to see this minor leagie team! It's late 90's and the 2000's again with Rocky Bill Wirtz hiding in the rafters!

Would $300 CDN be ok?

Amazing. I just put on some loud rock music and I honestly don't give a poop anymore.

There is no captain on this team.

I havent paid for it in 2yrs now *after having it for prob 20yrs, plus...

They've been on ESPN or NHL network so far...but I'm sure that's done real soon.

Not that uts very expensive, but even the time to watch. More times than not I'm barely paying attention/flipping channels

Might need to look up more FLA games haha

This is the thing I'm trying to understand (and probably won't be able to)

@IneffectiveMath
Among the many troubling* things about Chicago this year is that despite perpetually being losing, they seem to generate less and less offence the more they're losing by. It's really quite something.

Amazing. I just put on some loud rock music and I honestly don't give a poop anymore.

Don't blame you.

So, the Hawks game is the straw that broke the camel's back, eh?

Don't blame you.

So awesome. Loud, fast and aggressive.

Olczyk is reminding me of Jack Brickhouse all those years with the second division Cubs.

So awesome. Loud, fast and aggressive.

Caninus?

The Borg!

Borg in the blue paint. Not a good team overall, but love seeing the fight in these younger guys.

Caninus?

The Borg!

LOL,not quite as loud or aggressive. I am talking Air Supply.

Wonder how safe that job is going to be after tonight. Players are growing more and more frustrated.

Another game another extremely poor defensive effort because the opponent knows how to draw our defenders to the boards and blue line

Caninus?

The Borg!
- HawkintheD

Again, a goal followed by a penalty. Sigh.

Lost in Love for this team?

If this becomes a frequent callout / topic for the national media, will that make any difference to our new CEO and PR team?

@Buccigross

The @NHLBlackhawks need major changes now. This is pathetic.

I am picturing McD as Mr. Burns "Excellent" right about now.

Hahah no poop.

Meanwhile is that a song by those people? I thought it was "Im ALL OUT OF LOVE". I hope I am wrong and don't know this.

Their live shows were out of control...from what I've heard.

It’s not solely the coaches fault. But this a chaotic and undisciplined team and Colliton has not shown any ability to right the ship.
