Well that escalated quickly. Is there something inherent in the way CAR plays that exposes their goalies to a lot of high danger chances? It seems that goaltending has been an issue for them for quite a while now.

Really hard to say. There's certainly an argument that that's the case, but when you only have Cam Ward as the baseline for everything, it's pretty tough to make a call on that.

Don Waddell did say that once Tom Dundon took over there were a lot more frank discussions about the team and the organization as a whole that probably should have been had a long time ago. I'm sure it's something they'll consider.

No one gives a poop about the Hurricanes, not even the people from that city. Loser team, loser city, loser fan base

Okay, well, I don't live there.

And I typically only keep it to Blackhawks related guys. Darling was a pretty popular guy in Chicago and many are interested in tracking his progress. Not my fault he (frank)ed your girlfriend.

Joni Tuulola has signed two year ELC with Blackhawks.
- MjulQvist


Could be a player. Rockford is adding some nice talent for their playoff push with Tuulola and Edsjell brought into the fold.

He has made strides this season but I haven´t seen him playing this year. Pretty good skater, nice hands and calm with the puck. Needs to be better without the puck and more strength imo.
- MjulQvist


He also switched teams that seen him go from more of a PK specialist to a top 4 dman with responsibility on the PP.

They probably do. The Russians never could fully occupy Finland during WW2. I think they're content with leaving the Finns to their reindeer herds and pumping out world class goalies and rally car drivers every decade.

Those look fun. No barriers to keep the cars from rolling onto fans and occasionally a moose hops onto the track and races the car.

If those guys impress in Rockford, any chance they get a look for the Hawks? Especially curious to see Edjsell and with Toews out there's a C opening....

nucks have beaten them 2x rather handily...

ahh for the days between 2009 - 2014 when hawks/nucks was an event with two good teams and alot of bad blood...so much fun feeding the nuck trolls here...

now it has come down to this...two teams at the bottom in a "who cares" end of season game...

Kaner is such a beast. Luongo still has nightmares of the Hawks lighting him up those years...

I would say it has to be the parts of the game that our current group of third pair/depth is lacking - if Tuulola is somewhat to significantly better -- this is how this newbie and team defense is an upgrade.

I had my fingers crossed to see the more likely prospect to succeed -- L Carlsson. Still premature but D Keith lite (I Mitchell) + Carlsson and see what Jokiharju and Tuulola bring. I was hoping that Carlsson would sign and be a fast riser. Could still happen. But Tuulola is a pleasant development and his AHL time this season + rookies camp may bring him close to ready.

Hillman and Kyrs have issues and we just need to see them in the AHL for at least a year. Both have a very very good strong point in their game; it is their weaknesses which will be addressed. Another player who is working on his defense and whom is very good offensively is Snuggerud. I have not heard how much he has improved this season. He has dealt with injuries. Snuggerud probably gets a look like Dahlstrom did but not until next year.

Other than burning the first year of his ELC why would Sikura want to be part of this dumpster fire? If Northeastern goes deep into the playoffs then this one and only benefit to signing with the Hawks is gone. Pittsburgh is still the most likely destination for Sikura, but if that doesn't work he'll end up in New York (Rangers) or Washington. Hell, even teams like Vegas, Arizona or Dallas would be more attractive options than Chicago.

Your posts have become more and more ridiculous. He'll sign with the Hawks. Relax.

We'll be lucky if this guy is half as good as Rundblad. Stan makes a wasted draft pick even worse by signing him to a wasted contract. This guy will end up in Indy before we know it.

And you know this how? How many games have you seen him play, in person or on TV?

Why do you assume that the best position for his long term success is not in Chicago? If the team is so devoid of players as everyone states, then it is the perfect opportunity for someone to step up, play significant meaningful minutes, and maybe make a name for himself. Every team with up and coming players will usually at some point run into cap hell. A team like Chicago may be exactly the place that a kid on an ELC can come in, prove himself, and get himself closer to the big payday and not some bridge deal. The assumptions made on this board border on the ridiculous when nobody has any information other than their own insecurities and phobias.

Every post he writes is a BS attempt at mocking other posters here he views as "too negative". He's fully committed to the Sikura won't sign narrative. Correct me if I'm wrong Darth.

Ditto. You are so right. A few people have a hard on borderline hatred and keep venting it over and over (for instance, their opinion on the Sikura sign and Bowman). To some of their commentary i can agree, but they just go too far and it is like warfare how they paint their opinion.

Another blogger has said of them, that they state their case like it is factual and they are so sure they are correct. In reality it drags down the board and sends some to JJ and maybe only peak here on hockeybuzz.

I don't know what can or if anything should be done. I want to reiterate, though, that i will usually look at what they say...at least until it is obvious they have no new insight in their opinion. And as i said there is some truth and solid reasoning to some of their viewpoint.

Now i am not without fault. I must hereforth hit review and correct the typos and darn auto correct. Which i did on this
