Return of Rocky Mountain Slim: Blackhawks @ Avalanche Preview and GDT
Chicago Blackhawks at Colorado Avalanche, Nov 6, 2009 8:00 PM CST
Game Time: 8:00 Central
TV/Radio: Comcast, WGN 720
Opposition Blogs: Mile High Hockey, Jibblescribbits
Don't Forget: Your SPG Picks
I was trying to wait to write this preview when I heard something solid about Toews, Eager, or if we'll see the return of Niemi.. but now I'm bored and hungry so I'm going to get what we know out of the way now and fill in the gaps later when we hear something solid. The only thing we do know is that the Hawks have recalled Bryan Bickell. What this really means though is anyone's guess. There are so many places Bickell could be put in that we might not know until much closer to game time. I would assume that it's a sure-thing we'll see Niemi get the start though - Huet has had 5 starts in a row and this month is only going to get tougher. With the back-to-back games, it's a perfect time to let the FInn get some more ice time and let Huet rest. Of course Niemi got lit up for 5 goals in a game against the Avs last year.. so hopefully he'll be looking for revenge and not backwards into the net
As for the Avs - they're continuing to surprise the league. With 24 points they're tied with Pittsburgh and San Jose for the most in the league. As has been mentioned before though, the Avs probably aren't as good as their record currently shows. If the godfather isn't sold - then I'm still comfortable thinking this team is playing above where they should. But.. if they can win a game with a swine-flu infected Peter Budaj then the Hawks certainly can't play like they did last night and expect to win.
The Hawks aren't likely to see Budaj though, instead they'll probably be shooting at former Hawk Craig Anderson who is playing out of his skull so far this year. The Hawks will be looking to pepper him with shots though and the Avs will be more than happy to oblige with that strategy. They're 6th worse in the league in allowing shots on their goalies with an average of 32.6 per game. The Hawks are still tops in that category in case you were wondering.. Keep in mind the Hawks are one of the five teams that have found a way to beat Anderson, even if it took a shootout that seemed like it would never end.
The Avs are currently the only team in the league that's still undefeated at home and even though no one is watching they'll be looking to keep that streak alive. It's worth noting that the Avs do have one of the best penalty killing records in the league - so I wouldn't hold your breath for the Hawks to finally right that ship just yet.
Finally - thanks again to everyone who came out last night. A class at night and then a flat tire on my bike on the way to the bar made me pretty delayed but it was fun meeting everyone that was there. We'll do it again soon. And if you were the person who ended up puking at the bar after the game, consider yourself un-invited from our future gatherings til you learn to hold your liquor.
UPDATE: According to Kuc - No Toews, No Eager and not too surprisingly No Bolland. Also, the assumption that Niemi will be the net is correct.
Lets Go Hawks

Was the puking from drinking or from watching the Hawks power play?

Bonjour...le soiree de hockey contre les Nordiques
Oh shit. Yeah. They moved to Colorado. Eventhough they have moved and yet still assume a French-Canadian name for a team as les Avalanche are once again a force to be reckoned with in the West and Anderson (Khabibulin’s former backup) is the reason why as he stopping everything in sight. Sigh.
It would be nice if the PP could suprise us all and finally get back on track but if the old adage is right that a team’s best PK is their goaltender, well suffice to say we’re fucked. Sigh encore.
Look for Ebbett to have a productive night after I completely bashed thoroughly last night (that’s just what happens it seems), and Versteeg to totally piss me off at some point tonight only to score later. Kane will be awesome as always as well as Madden. Look for Campbell to score tonight to hopefully quam the masses a little.
Niemi is goal could be good, and could be horribly wrong either way he needs some starts and if he plays well and wins cue the goaltender debate. I’m already prepared for the worst.
LET’S GO HAWKS!!!

I nearly upchucked
running to catch my freaking bus after leaving the bar, but man, I should have stuck around to see that.
Andrew Ebbett as 2nd line center, LOL!!
Lets Go Hawks!
Ebbett's career vs. Av's
1 goal and 4 assists in 3 games. Maybe he knows the combination.
"Call Detroit, tell dem... BULLSHIT!"
Haha holy shit
someone puked? That sucks. I was the guy in the red flannel with the red hawks hat. Thanks to Sergio who bought me and my gf a round. We definitely need to do that again sometime.
I missed that excitement...
Glad it probably wasn’t one of the Hawks crowd, then. BTW anyone notice today’s Red Eye had both a Colorado preview and says Hawks lost to Colorado? (I know it’s Red Eye, but still…)

The only Bob LeDonne I know has a Nationwide Insurance commercial that is hilarious, and might only be shown in the local segment (western ’burbs) of commercial programming during Blackhawks games.
Anyone else see this commercial and love it?

Hard to say about Hawks fandom
Mom/dad/kid are in Ithaca, N.Y. — a Cornell family. Hockey will be omnipresent. obviously. Don’t know if he’ll play any; mom’s kinda protective.

1st period
Well, that was more like it from the Hawks as they played with a touch more passion, more than what they showed at any point last night in Glendale.
A PP goal? Check. Byfuglien with a nice goal as well as Keith.
The GA was an icing call that shouldn’t have been made but nonetheless the Hawks began to get in trouble when Hjalmarsson and Campbell decided to pass the puck around in their own zone repeatedly.
More of the same in the 2nd boys.

2nd Period
Was one twisted curl of fuck at the beginning withe Byfuglien at the point letting Jones to score a shorty and not that long after the Avs got another one on a breakaway.
But it ended nicely with a goal from Ladd which puts us even on the road 3-3 heading into the 3rd. May we come away with a victory as the Hawks have dominated them in every aspect.

Chris Stewart really? How lucky is this team? The pendulum will swing in the other direction. Trust me.
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!!!

One of those think by not thinking deals. Predictable result.

Shat away a point there.
"Everything I know about life, I learned from my father watching the Blackhawks. It can all be summed up in 2 words, 2 simple words that ring over and over in my memory. Detroit Sucks!!! Detroit Sucks!!!"
Got a point, anyway. Yay...or something...

That’s the problem with shootouts. If baseball can play until someone wins why can’t hockey do the same.

Propers must be provided to Anderson, but

Yuck.
Anyway — for your Canadians out there — a good Remembrance Sunday to you. Lest we forget and all that. Laters.

Clearly
I underestimate the suckage of Cam Barker. Nice move during the shootout pal. Wow.
Versteeg and Sharp could’ve won it but that would be bucking their trend as continuous chokers when it comes to the shootout. As if nobody could score for Niemi so he could win that. Maybe this team needs a shake-up of some kind.

in 3 weeks time
it will be toews, hossa, kane. calm down.
3 weeks is a long time, plus it won’t be 3 weeks until Hossa returns. If everyone thinks that Hossa’s return will cure what ails this team then their in for a quick suprise. There are a lot of problems here and one player returning from injury won’t cure it. It will help a lot, but it won’t cure them all.

how about 3 or 4 players returning?
bolland, toews, hossa & eager.
There are ups and downs to a season, we’re just have a bit of a lull right now. I’m sure if you went back to last season you could find a 4-6 game stretch where we played just as poorly.
