No Rest For The Wicked - Hawks @ Canucks Preview, Game Thread, Picnic/Pie-Eating Contest

Chicago Blackhawks at Vancouver Canucks, Nov 22, 2009 9:00 PM CST

GAMETIME:  9pm
TV:  CSN
RADIO: 720 AM
RIVAL BLOG(S):   Nucks Misconduct, Kurtenblog


Being that it's Sunday, I'd like to start out the preview with a psalm; a reading from the Book of Jables 1:11-

The road is fuckin' hard,
It's also really fuckin' tough,
There's no question that
It don't take no guff.
The road is a B-I-Itch my friend
But it's the only fuckin' road I know,
When I'm snackin' on a tasty bush
Right after the show.

While it's not entirely applicable, the symbolism is there...I think. In any event, after leaving the province of Alberta with her panties on inside out and a hand print on her ass, the Ramblin' Boys of Pleasure move west to B.C., home to decriminalized pot, creepy twins, weepy goalies, and where things look to get decidedly more difficult.

Having now won six straight games, nearly all facets of the Hawks game are starting to heat up, with even the once horrendous power play managing to Forrest Gump its way into the top 10 of the league after going 5 of 7 in the last two games against Calgary and Edmonton.

Much has been made of the "revenge factor" in this game for Willie Mitchell's completely legal hit on captain Jonathan Toews, which knocked Toews out of commission for a handful of games. At least publicly, the Hawks are saying all the correct things, noting that they'd rather get revenge for blowing a late lead, giving up two points and a W, but that's publicly. Remember that the resident ribeye-for-brains Ben Eager was not playing during the first meeting of the year as well, and could very well be looking to administer some vigilante justice on Mitchell independent of any coaching mandates. Colin Fraser has also been putting his face in harm's way quite a bit lately in attempt to show that he will indeed serve a purpose once Marian Hossa returns later this week.

It's also widely speculated that Antti Niemi will get his first start in net since the late Triassic period on the back end of games on consecutive nights. Though it wouldn't surprise anyone if Quenneville continued to play the hot hand in Cristobal Huet, he'll then need to monitor Cris' workload later on, as Huet has never been a 65-start a year guy. Perhaps the logic is that once Hossa comes back, the defensive margin for error becomes a little bit greater, and the Hawks can afford to have Niemi in net more frequently. But with the team defense the Hawks have been playing (fewest shots per game allowed, fewest overall goals allowed, 2nd overall in penalty kill), Niemi certainly gets put into a position to succeed.

Whoever is in net tonight will get the pleasure of facing a Canucks team who will be getting back one of the Sedins (does it really matter which one?), and a squad that just basically did the same thing to Colorado in a home-and-home that the Hawks perpetrated to their divisional rivals, dropping 8 and 5 respectively on a sliding Avalanche squad. 'Nucks kinda-captain and goalie Roberto Luongo hasn't really been his usual all-world self yet this year, but everyone knows he's fully capable of stealing any game in which he plays, so there's no reason for the Hawks to take their foot off the pedal now.

As far as the gameplan itself is concerned, everyone knows the drill by now. The Canucks will try to gum things up at center ice and play physically in an effort to goad the Hawks into retaliatory penalties, while the Hawks will throw everything they've got at Luongo's crease all night long.  It will be interesting to see how the lines Hawks lines are constructed and how it will effect the forecheck if Bryan Bickell can't go tonight, putting Jordan Hendry at forward (shudder). It's going to be a battle any way you slice it, let's just hope we're all going into work with a good hangover tomorrow morning instead of a sad hangover. Let's Go Hawks.

Get ready to eat it Canucks, Hawks are rollin hard and fast!

I think were going to see the a rough and tough game out of Vancouver tonite. The Canucks have alot to prove in front of the GM Place crowd after the Hawks beat them up pretty bad at home in the Playoffs last season. Hawks need to come out strong and shut down the Sedin twins every chance we get.

Man do I miss Burish and his mouth!

nah, not particularly

The Hawks dominated that game until Toews was hit.

If anything, Canucks just managed to shift the momentum then. That hardly makes it up for what happened to them in game 6.

And by “game 6” you mean the entire six game series.

In front of the crowds?

You don’t “avenge” a loss on the road. Winning on someone else’s pond isn’t easy in the NHL. When you lose, it’s semi-acceptable. When you win, it’s a big deal. Only thing the ‘Nucks may have to avenge is Buff and Kaner making your goalie do this, and you’ll need to wait until at least April to do that.

You did in Game 3 and almost in Game 4, and should’ve in Game 6 but….your goaltender decided to have a mental breakdown at the worst possible moment.

Last week? That was the other wat=y around…he was running from Ripper all game…had to fight Glass and Hordichuk instead.

Heck…I just posted the first one that came into the Youtube search.

You should see the amount of times he has made Stortini his bitch…or the one against Hal Gill…all 6’7" of him ( Ripper is 5’11"…)

He really does fight like a pitbull.

He has not refused anyone, as far as I remember.

All kidding asidethough, I hope we get a game devoid of all that shit. One fight to make Eager happy, and then away we go with a fun game between two talented teams…

Dude…coach would kill him if he fought then. Game was probably about over when that happened.

Its all good. We are quite happy with Ripper over here on the Left Coast.

That was a weird game though. St Louis really took it to them…

It was a statement game for them…don’t follow them that close, but I would wager they were better after that game then they were before…sort of like the Canucks after the win last time they were in Chicago.

Not going to go into it again and make it a “THING”, but he wasn’t entirely wearing the white hat..

Though…it looked worse on Burr’, its really nothing to make anyone “pay” about.

Whatever…thats so blase anyhow right…isn’t Mitchell the “bitch” right now?

All kidding aside, aren’t these developing rivalry games fun?

I mean…we REALLY hate the Flamers, and you guys REALLY hate the Dead Things, but its nice to have a little small “h” hate injected into the game sometimes…makes certain teams the ones you look forward to seeing come to town…

All in good fun or course…

I know I’m being a little greedy but I would be ecstatic if the ‘Hawks made it 3-for-3 on this trip and extended their lead atop the Central Division. But considering it’s the ‘Hawks 3rd game in 4 nights, on the road no less, I’d still be pleased if they still walked away with just a point.
Niemi in goal? Should be an adventure as he couldn’t do any worse than what he started in Colorado, but I’m confident that he can do the job and get the W.

foley needs to share some of his anti-anxiety “medicine” with Buff, but at the same time give him some speed otherwise Buff would become as lazy as Kane is

If anything

This just confirms we have a legitimate number 2 goalie.

by DetroitSucks! on Nov 22, 2009 11:33 PM CST reply actions  

Exactly!

We should not overreact and believe there is a goalie controversy. Niemi has solidified his position as a number 2 goalie. Q can probably have faith in giving Huet more rest since Huet isn’t a Kipprusof type of goalie that can handle a 60+ game workload.

by alpo on Nov 22, 2009 11:36 PM CST up reply actions  

Christ, that's not good.

Even with the win, Joel Quenneville couldn’t have been happy that the Blackhawks were 16-for-42 in the faceoff circle.

Just reading through the thread since I was at the bears game.

It was just like the books I read. Only stopped for pictures and when words were in all caps. I wish WGN replayed the games at night like CSN does. Looks like I’ll be watching the MLS Cup replay at 2 on ESPN.

(Sidenote to all international soccer fans: Here is the Henry handball game. Just click to knock the ball into the goal and cause Irishmen everywhere to drink (more).)

The worst part

Is that FIFA actually had a game or two replayed due to bad calls, if I remember the one article I read, yet because the Irish are complaining about bad calls they are saying no go on a replay game. However, that was a few days ago when I read that and I am drunk, so take that at face value, or even less if possible.

wait what?

by pepe126 on Nov 23, 2009 12:58 AM CST up reply actions  

True.

But the cited reference in denying the FAI request for a replay was that in the previous game the referee incorrectly applied the rules. In this case he just Koharski-d it. No chance for a replay, especially since FIFA got France into the World Cup. The only reason there was a seeded playoff was to protect the ‘big’ teams like the Surrender Monkeys, Portugal, and the Germans (that ended up not having to play a play-off).

I’d put this on the Global Futbol blog, but it’s not accessible.

So what I wrote

Not only made some sense but actually had some truth/backing to it? YAY ME. I do totally agree with you on the protecting part, I do remember that was part of the beef Ireland (justly) had, was like WTF is this seeded/non seeded we are playing where and when? bs. I’m pretty sure Zidane is gone, so it’s not like he can threaten any of the ref’s with headbutts, so what’s the deal?

That game was horrendously boring at first, and then it was awesome. I got a 70.
