Colorado Avalanche at Chicago Blackhawks, Oct 10, 2009 7:30 PM CDT
VS 
TV/Radio: CSN, WGN720
On to the actual game. The Hawks are coming off a difficult loss to Scum in a game in which they outplayed the Wings in every aspect except one - goaltending. Frankly, Cristobal Huet has to be better, and the Hawks aren't realistically asking for lights out performances nightly. Just don't shit your pants when it counts. So far, he hasn't even been able to pull that off. Here's hoping that ship gets righted tonight against a team that lacks offensive depth. In the first three games, though, there's not much else to complain about as far as the play of the team. Patrick's Sharp and Kane have been playing like men possessed, Kris Versteeg has looked impressive, and John Madden is showing there's still quite a bit of gas left in the tank. And on the defensive side of things, Brent Seabrook and Niklas Hjalmarsson have looked very physical to start, which is a good thing. Dave Bolland is also scheduled to make his return to the lineup tonight, which is definitely a good thing.
The Avs have gotten off to a 2-1 start behind the strong play of Park Ridge's finest (no, not Mike North), Craig Anderson. The hometown boy has finally gotten a chance to be a starter in the league, and so far he's making the most of it, allowing a total of 5 goals in those three starts. Elsewhere, though, the Avs are very much in rebuild mode. The line of Wojtek Wolski, Paul Stastny, and Milan Hejduk is still always a threat when they're on the ice, and third overall pick Matt Duchene has made the jump to the show without batting an eye. Other than that though, this is a very very thin lineup.
It's clear who the better team is in this matchup, it's just up to the Hawks to go out there and actually show it. Barring Craig Anderson standing on his head (which has happened to the Hawks twice in three games already), there should be a positive outcome tonight. However, we said the same thing last March, when the Hawks lost to the Avs in one of their most putrid games of the season. Let's not repeat that, shall we?
Projected Line-Up:
Versteeg - Toews - Sharp
Byfuglien - Bolland - Kane
Ladd - Madden - Brouwer
Kopecky - Fraser - Skille

Interesting that (once again) you used the Nordiques logo
The return of the Quebec Nordiques to the NHL may be one step closer to reality.
Quebec City mayor Regis Labeaume confirmed Saturday that he met with NHL commissioner Gary Bettman along with former Nordiques owner Marcel Aubut.
The mayor said the talks between him, Aubut and Bettman in New York on Friday were “fruitful.”
“It was very welcoming, very profitable, very worthwhile,” Labeaume told the media.
“But we’ll get back to you in a few days — we still have work to do.”
Several Quebec City media outlets are also reporting that a new arena for the city will be announced next week.
Bettman said earlier this month he would consider Quebec City as a possible home to an NHL team if it went through with plans to build a cutting-edge arena and if a team were up for sale.—courtesy of TSN.ca
Looks like Quebec has thrown their hat in the ring for a possible destination for a relocated franchise who they would get I don’t know, but at first glance I would suspect either Florida or Tampa Bay would be one of the first on the chopping block.
Looks like the NHL has decided to go 80’s retro in choice of relocated franchises which begs the question? What’s next? Are they bringing back the cover-alls?
It's never about the eventual destination, but rather the long journey and its challenging obstacles that are presented and what it takes to overcome them, that makes the taste of success all the more worthwhile!!!

Finally the long awaited official home opener
This is the type of game the should have in the bag with no disrespect to the Avalanche who’ve greatly improved (due to in most part being healthy) the Hawks are clearly head and shoulders above the Avalanche. And with that comes more pressure (like he needed more of it) placed upon the shoulders of the enigmatic Huet. As Matt already pointed out the Hawks do not need Huet to be the saviour, just to be solid for if he can he’ll find himself among the NHL’s leaders in wins by a goaltender. However in the event he can’t then the Hawks may be left with no option than to hand the keys to the car to Niemi. Is the long-term answer? Fuck no. But he may have to be until Stan pulls the trigger on a trade (preferably for Giguere…just saying).

I think they need to own up to it.
Call me a wuss, but ok, refs miss some penalties and that happens, but this was just uncool. If they don’t own up to it, is it really a win? What about karma? Q or Hammer IMO need to say something to the refs.

In this case I do.
It’s just so apparent and such a serious hit.

Not a good idea..
Usually the Refs know they missed a call and will make up for it on their own later in the game. I’m surprised they called the penalty on the Avs right after actually, especially since it was such a minor thing

Oh...
OK, maybe that will make me feel better.
I know Hammer did what he had to do, and doubt he’d intentionally do it, but man, hate to see a guy layed out on the ice like that, no matter what team (with a few exceptions…).

Meh. First Period
Great Holmstrom-like screen in front by Kopecky on Barker’s bullet, but the Hawks need better puck support when entering the offensive zone. Another solid 1st period by Huet (0 GA in 3 games now) not pretty at times but still efffective he’s just got to figure out the 2nd period for that is where 5 of his 6 GA have been.
The opening ceremonies with Esposito, Savard, Makita, and Hull was something special that’s for sure. Great stuff!

I’d like to see fewer rushes allowed. The D-men pinching is great, but the other defender had better be in a good position in the neutral zone when his partner goes in deep. Other than that, the momentum is with the Four Feathers now and the physical play is solid.

Big picture--
I don’t think the Diques are getting anywhere near Top 8. So giving up the OT point does no real harm. But they have to come out sharp on Monday, or we’re going to get done over like an Alberta oil sand project.

The Flames?
Based on the fact that René Bourque has already reached his monthly maximum point total and that Sutter insists on keeping Jokinen and Iginla together there does lie the possibility of a Huet shutout but…he’s got to be solid in the 2nd period (what’s with that period so far)!
Like the Hawks chances on Monday to once again extinguish the Flames.
2-1-1 a much better start than last season that’s for sure.
It's never about the eventual destination, but rather the long journey and its challenging obstacles that are presented and what it takes to overcome them, that makes the taste of success all the more worthwhile!!!
by hawks61 on Oct 10, 2009 10:37 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
I swear I thought we were going to see Sopel
Just wondering if he had the talent to pull a Marek Malik? Probably not.
Give the devil his due after being meh throughout the game Huet really stood tall when called upon in the shootout and hopefully that is what he needed to break out of his early season slump because some of those saves were of high quality. Based on this performance by Huet he should get the start against Calgary due to the fact he was fairly solid (and that’s all the Hawks ask) and in the end made the saves necessary to win.

strange
We won a game we should have won, resident whipping boy Sopel has a real good game, Keith plays great and yet it was scratch for every inch game that took NINE shooters to end. Hell, Huet even looked pretty good in the shootout and managed to stay off his knees just enough to make A GLOVE save. End of last year we had horrible defensive gaffs coupled with lots of front end, and now the D are the best two way players involved in just about every score this season?
That was an ugly win, but it sure beats losing.
