I suppose we should thank the Blues.
Losing first place seems to have lit a fire until the collective ass of the ’Hawks.

Normally I enjoy this rivalry and the trash-talking involved
But I’ll make an exception in your case. First place for 24 hours does not a Stanley Cup make. Ask Vancouver how that works.

Yeah, that's funny...
You guys are a laugh riot.
I’ll bet you get a chuckle out of watching gunshot victims twitch and flop around on the ground, too.
It’s one thing to be competitive and talk smack; completely another to make fun of someone’s injury.
Stay classy, y’all.

Nice to see some class from the City of the Big Shoulders...
You guys are the coolest hockey fans ever to jump on a bandwagon two years ago. I’d lay serious money on the proposition that 90% of you fine people couldn’t have named five players on the Hawks’ roster five years ago.

I checked the stat sheet and Duncs had 21, Leddy Jelly Seabs about 19, Monty 15 OD about 11. Those don’t see too awful

It's never too late to learn...
something.
by ChicagoNativeSon on Jan 8, 2012 10:20 PM CST up reply actions
I did learn
By reading the post-game wrap, I learned that I wasn’t the only one who thought Leddy maybe could’ve done more on that final goal.
But thanks for being a prick!
Ooooooo! He called me a prick! Teacher!!!
Yeah, because Killian, who admits he only saw the play once, is the the end-all-debate-on-the-topic authority.
Just because the writers of this site have a hard on for dissing Leddy whenever possible because – OMG, this just in – he’s not Campbell, doesn’t mean they’re correct. Shit, they were calling him out in the summer before preseason even began.
So in conclusion let me get this straight, Leddy’s “just standing there like an idiot” so obviously he’s not doing anything. It’s not that there are multiple bodies between him and Datsyuk, right? And obviously because he’s just standing there he’s to blame because he didn’t make an effort to block the shot.
Enter exhibit B: But, but “the puck went off Leddy” as proof. How does a guy who didn’t make an effort to block a puck get hit with the puck?? Do you blame the posts too, when shots go in off of them? I’m sure Leddy should have dug his skate into the Crow’s back in order to make that save. And here I thought goalies did that for a living.
by ChicagoNativeSon on Jan 9, 2012 9:26 AM CST up reply actions
my name is spelled
Killion.
And I still believe Leddy took a poor position defending that shot.. It certainly wasn’t entirely his fault but there’s a chance it doesn’t go in if Leddy isn’t standing on the far post. I don’t think it’s entirely his fault though and mentioned that in the wrap.
No one has a hard on for dissing Leddy.. we want him to succeed as much as anyone and I think he’s going to be a fantastic player… he’s just not there yet.
Does every disagreement with you have to turn into some middle school playground fight? Grow up

Right, this site doesn’t have favorites. And I’m the tooth fairy. It’s not that having favorites or scapegoats is wrong or even a bad thing. It’s just something to keep in mind when looking for objectivity. That was my point. Am I on the other hand a Leddy apologist? Sure. But I’m also sure that much of what I write is therefore taken with a grain of salt.
And the original comment wasn’t actually made towards you KillION. You are the most unbiased writer IMO on this site and your level-headedness is refreshing. I always look forward to your posts.
That said, choosing this spot to take a potshot at me because I disagree with you is pretty weak, but whatever.

Killion you are by far the most objective writer on the site. But a site that has McClure as a writer doesn’t have the “high moral ground” concerning childish behavior.
And yes, anytime you try and present a minority position like “Bickell isn’t a worthless player” or “Leddy wasn’t really at fault on a play,” you are pretty much taking on the entire playground. So its NOT surprising when it goes there…
I'm willing to bet he's FAR more annoyed
about the situation than yourself.
Besides, doesn’t Leddy always have a dopey look on his face?

See
And I thought I was being a bit histrionic, but you just can’t stop with your sarcasm. Sorry everybody isn’t an old hockey analyst like you.
Killion articulated it MUCH better than I did in my original comments, but I was pissed off at the loss, so sue me.
" Again, not entirely his fault but he could have taken a much better position in the net rather than guarding the far post. I haven’t been able to find a good replay of it to see how much Crawford may have been blocking him but Leddy left about 80% of the net wide open and the replays on TV made it look like the puck went off his hip and into the net."
Leddy’s positioning was my main issue. It wasn’t that he had to be “superman” (again, your cute histrionics at play there) to get to a better spot. I thought there was room for him to get bigger in the net. Maybe not.
Either way the comments section on this blog gets ever more tiresome when the older crowd like you just sarcastically belittles commenters who don’t say “wow i’m pissed but let me look at the CORSI so I can rationalize this 4 game losing streak better”.
I can hear the violins playing in the background...
What does this have to do with “the older crowd” or “statistics”? Geeze, if I knew I was going to a pity party, I would have dressed more appropriately.
You can ignore facts and make fun of stats that you don’t understand all you want and just head for the cliffs. Fine by me.
You can also revise history all you want too and insist “I meant to say this, but I said that.”
“Leddy standing watching Datsyuk like an idiot” was your comment though.

I don't agree
Like BW says below he’s got a reasonable contract, we’ve got a decent back up who’s shown last year and this year that he can stand up when necessary, and we’ve got Salak (many people’s favorite as the backup in the preseason even though it was always going to be Emery) learning in the AHL. I think we’re ok.
And to be fair, we can always send him to the minors.
It would feel like home to him anyway.

I'm talking about this year though...
..where the Hawks signed him to be the main guy based on a relatively small sample size. And from the way they keep running him out there, it’s pretty clear that Q doesn’t trust Emery keep his good streak going down the stretch.
Played with the lead just fine tonight
it was a well played game. We went up early to a good team. They had like 48 minutes to chip away, and Conklin got his shit together after that.

Brutal game by the referees and Patrick Kane
I’ve never seen Kane play this horrificly for such a stretch. He was absolute crap out there the entire game. Stalberg was a clusterfuck on defense as well.
Something is not right with Kane. Is it an injury? Is it heavy legs that he can’t play thru? Just brutal.

I'm actually starting to wonder if alcoholism is at work
I’ve played this game and followed this game since the 70’s when I was a teenager. Too many hockey player succumb to booze, and yes I am starting to worry about Kane in that regard. He played like absolute dogshit in the biggest game of the season. He’s been ungodly bad for 3 weeks, to the point where Q needs to chop down his shifts and stop playing favorites.

He was around the net in position, found the open ice, made passes, his back check will never be Selke level, but I did not see him make major boneheaded plays either. All the Hawks got burned at times, but the Red Wings will do that, they are that good. He played fine, and I think the Hawks as a whole played a very good game against a very tough team.
BTW, that trade Kane shit, we call that “sarcasm”! It is the general default here.

TMFF.. I get it!
you and I must have been watching this other game where the Hawks played this really, really good Hockey team and pretty much went toe-to-toe with them.. you know, where this kid called Hayes only stripped some old geezer called Lidstrom and Stalberg gave Kronwall the bends and, but for not having Patrick Sharp for most of the game and some pretty average officiating we’d have won. We must have been on a different feed to some others…
"Kevin, You can't play Doom Metal while wearing a scarf"
What does this have to do with the fact that Kane played like dogshit again"?
I’m having difficult time understanding the argument.
The Blackhawks and the Stanley Cup in 2010.
might i say that it's possible that others don't agree with your assesment
shocking as that may be
If you must scream to get noticed, maybe you should whisper instead
yup.
if Kane is dogshit then god help everyone else… and the relentless negativity does get on the nerves a little..
"Kevin, You can't play Doom Metal while wearing a scarf"
Careful with the wording professor
Kane is NOT dogshit. Rather Kane has PLAYED like dogshit for 3 weeks. See how the correct usage of English interpretation works professor?
The Blackhawks and the Stanley Cup in 2010.
BAM!
Schooled!
But in the end, I think it's going to come back to the Globetrotters, because if there's one thing they know, it's "globe-trotting!"
I thought Kane really hustled tonight.
Can’t say all the breaks went his way, but I sure can’t say dogshit
"What doesn't kill us makes us stronger"
Good thing the world ends in less than a year, right?

Shhhhhhhhhhh
We’re all talking how the Hawks are perfectly fine and a four game losing streak is meaningless and doesn’t point to troubles in the slightest.
Blackhawks bleed Red & White.
We are all Canucks...including Toews, Sharp, Keith, Seabrook, ...need I go on?
Alright, its obvious this team is awful
so heres my solution:
1.) The powerplay sucks dick, so we fire Kitchen. The guy up in the 300 level that smells like cheese and PBR seems to really know the game. He knows exactly when someone should SHOOT or HIT SOMEONE. We get him a decent suit and a haircut, ween him off the brats and shitty beer, and we got a top 3 PP..
2.) Patrick Kane is dogshit. We trade him to Toronto for Kris Versteeg straight up.
3.) Q cant coach worth a damn, I hear Scott Arniel will be looking for a job shortly, and as long as the Wirtz family can subsidize his anti-depressant regimen that he needs after this season, I think he can build a winner.
4.) Duncan Keith and Brent Seabrook were brought up too early. Send them to the Rock so they can develop. OD and Scott can cover for them.
I think this will work

Lovely stuff
Meatball reaction runs two ways….the extremists who don’t know jack about the game on the one hand, to the passionate defenders of lousy play on the other.
THe play of the Blackhawks is indeed subject to major criticism right now. Fact is this team has just gone through a first half schedule that looks markedely easier than what the second half entails. There are problems with this team right now. Problems that Bowman and Q need to address, and they know they need to address.
But alas, if you think ripping the shit out Kane’s horseshit play translates into raging hatred for the player and proposal that we trade him for a bag of magic beans? Well, then there is no helping you. I’ll defer my “debate” with thos on this board with tangible understanding of the game.

You might want to look up what “defer” means. Kane’s play is not up to his standards, but it’s far from “horseshit.” There are problems, but none that can’t be addressed on the roster. There can be criticism, but I’m pretty sure there’s a difference between criticizing defensive coverage and speculating on alcoholism.

Just wish they played this hard more often. The enigma that is this year’s team will sort things out eventually…I hope. Sure could have used killer instinct tonight. Big saves from Crow, but also times when he had no clue where the puck was. Crow = Rodman. Just one of many issues, all of which are being pointed out by many.

I like what he brings,
But eventually he will be worked and figured out if he has weaknesses. Can he be knocked off the puck easy by a stick check or stick lift? Can he saucer pass effectivley (if not, this REALLY helps out d-men), Can he defend the puck from both sides? Can he shoot with pressure, Can he shoot strong a weak sides equally or tend one way or the other? Can he hit the top of the net? etc… If he shows to be weak on some of these, that can quickly make him ineffective or at least limit his abilities. It is how he adjusts and reacts to this I want to see.

Those streams in Ontario are frozen most of the year, any movement at all appears quick

But he took lessons!!!
Which of course is like teaching a monkey to type and calling him a novelist.
Now on the other hand, if we had a million John Scotts…

Backstory on this one is funny
A Vancouver columnist wrote an article condemning SCH as “classless” (ow, that hurt) during the playoffs two years ago. He specifically cited my photoshops which made fun of the players, etc, etc.
So I sent him this with a note: “I see you were at the game.” And my last line to him, “Don’t mess with a guy with mad photoshop skills – he’ll make you look stupid. (you’ve already got the rest covered, I see)”

Johan Franzen got 2 mins for roughing — or punching Steve Montador in the face — at the end of the game. #Blackhawks #RedWings
Does that mean we start the next game on the PP?
What a fucking useless BS call. I’ll trade that for a redo on tripping Biscuit face nearly into the path of a 60’ slapper!
by Toews-makes-funny-faces on Jan 8, 2012 10:21 PM CST up reply actions
I feel better than I have in over a week. I can live with this.
They played well tonight and lost due to a couple of bad breaks, a couple of bad non calls, and a couple of unlucky bounces. That will happen. I can live with it in the regular season. They got a point and are tied atop the division, despite being short Kruger and Carcillo (and Sharp for the 2nd and 3rd periods). This was actually a step forward. If they can play every game like this, they’ll be fine. The energy and the smarts were there.
This may be overstating the obvious, but the problem on the Power Play is their O zone entry. The first PP they were able to carry the puck in and scored. The other PP’s they had to dump and chase, and lost the races and the battles.
The kids from Rockford (Shaw and Hayes) are playing well enough to make me think we should be looking for a D man rather than a top 6 forward before the trade deadline.
While I’d have loved 2 points, I’m feeling better, at least until the next game. This reminds me of the San Jose game when they were struggling on the Circus Trip. They turned their play around and lost by a goal, then went on a 9-1-1 run. It could happen again, though a healthy Sharp and Krugs will be a big plus.

damn you for calling it like you saw it!
can’t you see that Kane is an alcoholic, Keith and Seabs were shooting up in the intermission and the real reason Sharp was out for tow periods was because he was scouring the streets around the UC for a meth dealer…
SRSLY.. you’re 100% correct!

Bravo
What tonight showed me was, this is a very good team. (although I already knew that)
Gave Detroit more than it could handle for most of the game. Aside from some stretches, the Hawks controlled play. The stretches are gonna happen with two very good teams. And if not for the bad penalty calls/no calls in the 1st period killing the Hawks momentum, this game had the potential to be a laugher.
Can’t judge one game because of the previous three. Losses will happen when they happen. Their record still speaks for itself.
Sharp looked hot (when does he not??) until he got hurt. Hawks had to play makeshift hockey for most of the game and still never took their foot off the pedal. If you’re one who believes line jumbling hurts the team, then tonight should have killed them. It didn’t. A goal for that should have been, a goal against that shouldn’t have been (crosschecking, but I’m sure that was Leddy’s fault since he was closest to puck and that’s the guy to ALWAYS blame), and a goal with no goalie in net.
Oops, I let my mind wander there. Sorry. Hawks suck.

yep, perfect situation
plus they tend to act better for me than they do their parents most times (because they don’t know how much they can get away with, with me)
Go Canucks Go!
My advice with nephews/neices
keep the reigns tight, easier to loosen them up than it is to tighten them up
If you must scream to get noticed, maybe you should whisper instead
yep and I do :)
plus it’s easier for me than for the parents because I don’t get to the point where I give in just for some peace because I don’t have to deal with them 24/7 :)
and actually my sis and her husband keep the reigns pretty tight on my nephew so he’s actually good 95% of the time :) but he still has his moments lol
Go Canucks Go!
I was kidding earlier
I’ve got 3 great kids, sometimes you wonder how you got so lucky to have good ones, occasionally you wonder what the hell you did so wrong. In the end its all payback for all the stupid shit you did to your parents
If you must scream to get noticed, maybe you should whisper instead
lol even though I don’t have kids, I totally get it :)
and truly every kid is different lol, but they are still so cute. Love seeing all my 2nd cousins there are like 5 of them and they are all between 1,5 and 3 yrs old.
and I wish I could see my nephew more lol

cute and still small enough to man handle if needed. They get over 8 and it gets to be more of a mental challenge. If your ever in the midwest, I’ll let you borrow mine for a days, I mean hours

I don’t see the 2nd cousins enough because they are 3 hours away so only like 3 or 4 times a year.
and I REALLY don’t see my nephew enough because they are in the UK. I saw him for 4 days in Nov. and that was the first time in 2 years (since he was 4 months old) Skype just isn’t enough but at least it’s something :)
Go Canucks Go!
same here, except mine live a few states away. i like seeing them for a week or so a few times a year
but i start to go a little nuts when its for longer. One of my friends has a kid, who is adorable, but he is seriously a menace. Going out with him never ever ends well.
oh no! that really sucks. i’m lucky, my sister only lives 1.5hrs away so I’d be able to see them really often. yeah skype isn’t ideal but its deifnitely something!
