Anyone but the Habs
Wild/Stars should be the prime time game not the Pens/Flyers
Joe Theisman rhymes with heisman, is why he changed the prounounciation of his name too in college.
Babcock on a short leash would be perfect for this team! Sergei Zubov as d coach
There’s only 2 guys on this team that can actually pass accurately Bedard and Korchinski
It was creviers first full season and he had the most points by a defenseman on the team(despite 0 PP time) and the best plus minus behind mikheyev. Don’t forget he got limited minutes the first 10 games or so. He also led the team in hits, while Vlasic had a whopping 29. Completely disagree that this might be an outlier season.
Seabs for D coach!
Scott Laughton is a perfect fit for a 3 year deal with this team. Has the grit and toughness this team needs, not to mention underrated skill as well. UFA this summer…
Why bring up Sasha Boevert if you're not gonna play him. Look at Martone in Philadelphia doing fantastic now that coach and general manager knows how to let their players play. Chicago has the worst general manager and one of the worst coaches in the NHL look at the records facts are facts
Dangler with another plea for Kaner to come back.
My dream first line for next year is nazar-bedard-knies
There’s a good chance commesso gets a decent amount of starts next year
Michael McCarron is a free agent the Blackhawks should sign. Large and actually uses his size to punish people unlike Vlasic or Crevier. Kills penalties and wins faceoffs. He also sticks up for his teammates. He would be a perfect bottom six center. To expect Boisvert and Spellacy to fill that role would be shortsighted. They should both be in Rockford next season.
The Donato contract was always going to be a huge overpay. To pay a player in his late 20’s that had a complete outlier season was a mistake. Fortunately the Blackhawks don’t have cap issues at this point.
Both Korchinski and Rinzel were drafted as offensive leaning defensemen. If they aren’t getting power play time on this team then why are they here? I’m looking for harder to play against defense leaning defensemen to replace them. Even possibly better offensive defensemen in the first round of this draft .
You don't give enough credit to Crevier. Not just a good season for a 7th round pick! He was 100 times better than Korchinski who was a first round pick. He has the hardest shot in the league and the most accurate shot on the team. He also will drop the gloves and restore peace when needed. What you guys said about him was "damning with faint praise."
