I guess there's only one thing left to do... Preds @ Hawks Preview and GDT

Tootoo1_medium  @  Images_medium

GAME TIME: 7:30 Central
OPPOSITION BLOG: On The Forecheck
TV: Comcast  RADIO: WGN 720AM
DON’T FORGET:  YOUR SPG PICKS - remember the New Rule too

You seriously can't count on St. Louis to do anything right.  When we want them to win - they lose.  When we want them to lose - they win.  Overall though, I guess it is better to bring yourself into the playoffs, which is exactly what the Hawks can do with a win over Nashville tonight. 

Hell, even a single point tonight guarantees the Hawks cannot fall any further than 8th and that this will be the first squad since 2002 to not be breaking out the golf clubs early.

With a Calgary victory over Dallas and Vancouver going to the shootout with Anaheim, the Hawks have fallen back to 5th place in the West but a win puts them right over those Canadians (with an A) and back on track for home ice.

It's not exactly going to be an easy task (it never is) because with the Blues' win the Predators have been pushed down to 9th overall and a single point out of the playoff picture.

The Predators have taken their usual game plan and are slowly sneaking their way into the playoffs again, getting ready for that first round exit to the Wings or Sharks.  You'd want to talk more shit about them til you realize they've made it to the post-season four years in a row.  The last time the Hawks made the post-season four times in a row?  '93-'97

The Preds are helped by their latest run - they have 13 points in their last 10 games (5-2-3) and like most teams in the Central, the Predators have beaten up on the Hawks so far this season, 1-2-1. 

The last game the Hawks played against this team was February 24th, a putrid effort that saw a 2-goal lead vanish and the Preds scoring 4 in the third period.  Let us speak no more of it.

Pekka Rinne is likely to be minding net for the Preds tonight which isn't great news for the Hawks.  Rinne could be a candidate for the Calder if it wasn't for that pesky Steve Mason.  Sorry to everyone who still has hopes for VERSTEEG! to bring home that trophy, but those dreams should died a long time ago - it's best if you just leave them at the door.


Pekka Rinne

#35 / Goalie / Nashville Predators

GP MIN W L T EGA GA GAA SA SV SV% SO
2008 - Pekka Rinne 47 2693 27 12 4 4 101 2.25 1293 1192 .922 7

Rinne is near the top of the league in both GAA and SV% and is a large part of the reason the Preds are still hanging around the playoff picture.  He can steal a game from you.

The Hawks offense will need to continue to step it up.  Goal scoring isn't a main concern for the Preds (24th in G/G) but they're solid defensively.  Having Rinne helps but they're also 11th overall in ShotsA/G and 4th overall on the kill.  On The Forecheck has more of a comparison of stats as well as a great chart on penalties drawn vs. penalties taken.  Awesome stuff.

Finally, where would a good Predators preview be without a little Tootoo bashing, right?  And lately, no one has based Tootoo better than Brad Staubitz.... so take it away Brad:

UPDATE:  Tonight's Lines

Kane - Toews - Havlat

VERSTEEG! - Tallywhacker - The Shooter

Ladd - Pahlsson - Buff

Eager - Fraser - Burish

Lets Go Hawks

Barring some miracle, I won’t be able to join everyone for a game thread discussion. I’m hoping to join in for the third period or so but I’m not counting on it. Hope you all have fun.

I most likely won't be around either...

my brother (Bwana, who was here the other night) and his girlfriend are visiting, and our girlfriends might not appreciate us sitting on our laptops and commenting while watching the ’Hawks.

I will, however, make a video feed/beer post when I get home, so stay tuned.

Well that’s the heart of our lineup out for this game… just in time for the Game Time kids to come over and call this place “dead”.

I imagine a few of them might stop by since they actually want the Hawks to win tonight…

Blah

“Sorry to everyone who still has hopes for VERSTEEG! to bring home that trophy, but those dreams should died a long time ago”

VERSTEEG! is far too awesome for that paltry trophy. If they wanted him to win it they would have called it the CALDER! with all capital letters and an exclamation point.

That was just about the worst possible series of results last night :\

Insert clever and witty remark slash pun here!

Man I wish I could be there!!!

Should be one emotional night if the Hawks should pull out a victory. A win tonight and claiming a playoff birth would put the exclamation mark that the past is over. Since 1996 when Roenick left this franchise has seemed to be in disarray and just when things looked to be turning around in 2002 they let Amonte go and replaced him with Fleury. It seems finally this franchise has gotten out of its way and starting to move in the right direction and a playoff clinching berth would be the final nail in the 97-08 coffin! The past 10 years have been harsh but the future seems brighter than ever with maybe a Stanley Cup Championship in the not to distant future. Let’s Go Hawks and bring it home boys!!!

This game should have a playoff feel

As unbelievable as the Preds in the playoffs 4 straight years sounds, it’s time for a changing of the tide. Bye-bye Preds playoff appearance streak, hello Hawks dominance. Let’s steal their thunder and knock them back down! A win tonight secures year 1 and deflates the Preds hopes of year 5 in terms of playoff appearance streaks bullshit. Who knows what the ceiling is for this young Hawks team!?

Your gametime video feed and beer

Got me a movie, AH-HA-HA-HO: tvants://list.tvants.com/tvants/?k=3685912168d3b3e2eac87aba55148f22 (sorry Mac guys, this one requires TVAnts)

Slicin’ up eyeballs, AH-HA-HA-HO:

Bell’s Amber Ale
Yes, my Bell’s boner is in full force. It’s growing by the day, and should rival that of chicagokill soon. And as much as I’d like HopSlam (also Bell’s) to be the beer of the game, I’m not sure if my brother, who is currently en route from the suburbs to Iowa City, was able to procure some (I’m really, really crossing my fingers, though). If he doesn’t have any sweet, sweet HopSlam, Amber Ale is my back-up for tonight. And much like the December ‘08 ’Hawks, my back-up is pretty damn good. Also, I’ve posted HopSlam already, and I don’t want to start repeating unless I get really lazy. (Shit — I just realized I’ve already posted Amber Ale too. Oh well, I’m not writing up another beer post. Drink and be merry, or something.)

Like I said earlier, I might not be in the comments tonight (What’s that I hear? A collective sigh of relief? Love you guys, too). In any case, let’s get a goddamn win tonight — playoffs are gonna be fun.

Go Hawks!

Seconded.

Quick question: I’m on the verge of winning a bet with a Chicagoan and the payout is a Chicago-style pizza of my choosing the next time I visit. Where ought I get it from? And I’ve eaten Giordano’s. Is there any place else, a hidden gem you know of? Preferably one that delivers to the north side?

Why thank you, kind sir. You are both a scholar and a gentleman.

I’ll make a note of it and report back to you after I collect and devour the spoils of victory. You seem pretty confident it’s going to blow my pizza-lovin’ brain, so assuming you’re a man of distinguished taste, I’m getting awfully hungry all of a sudden.

Good, but...

He states Havlat has played in all 75 games. He’s played in 75 games, but not all 76 Hawks games. Nonetheless, it’s a good post otherwise, filled with useful information.

One note, Rinne’s GAA is going up tonight. Count on it!

It'll be interesting to see what the Hawks PP does tonight

Nashville is one of the most agressive PK units in the whole league and they pressure the puck carrier more often than most teams. With our PK in the shitter, tonight might be a good time to take advantage of their aggressiveness.

The thing that I like is that Kane played great with Havlat against the Blues, but I can’t argue with having the Sharp, Toews, Kane line

by Shooby34 on Apr 3, 2009 7:24 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

they did work well together in that game.. but everything but the PP was working that game.

Kane and Havlat both like working with the puck too much. Kane especially is great working with the puck.. not so much all the time without it.

And with that.. i now have to leave.. hopefully see you all later when the Hawks are wrapping this one up.

I’ll tell you what sucks though…09 on xbox. Maybe its because I never got into the whole 8 button game systems. But everytime I try and shoot I’d deke, and if I try to deke I’d shoot. And the fights are gayer than a bag of dicks.

Were you able to actually shoot any rebounds?

that’s what pissed me off, and forced me to throw the game system out a 3 story window.

I’d be dominating, but whenever i’d get a fat rebound that should be an easy goal, there wasn’t a button to push to just shoot the damn thing. So i had to stop playing, I don’t want to lose my hair.

I like it when they interview the guys with accents.

Toews actually looked overcome with emotion to start this interview…

I believe this can be described as a

workman like victory.

Good stuff.

Time to go drink and celebrate. Later gentleman.

Got more soul than a sock with a hole.

Anyone hear anything on Sharp?

Sorry, the thought of him being out scares me.

by Shooby34 on Apr 3, 2009 10:13 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

Nothing major, just precautionary...

…but that’s just my opinion, his injury didn’t look serious!!!

by hawks61 on Apr 3, 2009 10:15 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

lets hope so

LET'S GO HAWKS!!!

by Hawks08 on Apr 3, 2009 10:15 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

Yeah, I kind of thought the same thing I mean he got off by himself but who knows.

by Shooby34 on Apr 3, 2009 10:16 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

We dont need him anymore

We have the scoring machine that is pahlsson……kidding.

by alpo on Apr 3, 2009 10:17 PM CDT up reply actions   0 recs

We DID IT!!!

We’re In! After 7 long and tumultious years, including the Lockout, the Hawks are back in the playoffs! One Goal: Accomplished! The past is officially the past and the future is the 2009 Stanley Cup Playoffs how sweet it is. Nice to see Havlat get the EN and quite fitting ’cause his signing with the Hawks was the first sign this team wanted to go in the right direction (at least my opinion)! Here comes the playoffs and the wait will be worth the while!!

by hawks61 on Apr 3, 2009 10:13 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

WOOOHOOOO!!!!

Just got home from the game. Twas quite a beautiful thing.
