Put the past behind us

Well the Hawks are coming out of California bruised, battered and with only 1 point.  I was going to put up a new poll asking for what everyone thought the biggest problem on the second half of the trip was – Defense? Face-offs? Penalties? Tryptophan? Sopel? (Sopel is now officially SCH’s whipping boy – there’s nothing I won’t fail to blame on him.)

But I didn’t want to see an ugly reminder of the second half of the road trip – especially since it’s important to realize that it was only ONE ugly game the Hawks played.  The game against the Sharks was exciting and went right down to the wire – we couldn’t ask for much more (except the obvious extra point).  The Ducks were able to play a good physical game and keep the offense from producing much – in a series against them I have faith that the Hawks would be able to adapt to their style and figure a way to put the puck in the net.

The Kings game.. well.. that one is the one we really should forget.  A pathetic effort and best not spoken of again.

On to the bad news for Burish though – He was the runaway favorite (43%) to be the last Blackhawk without a goal.  An opinion that probably wasn’t helped by his recent injuries.

But lets look to the future – Out of a possible 24, how many points will the Hawks get in the month of December? The poll will be open all week.

And remember – just one more month til the Winter Classic.

Lets Go Hawks.
