10 hours til game time!!!!!!!!!

11 hours til a new coach?

 

[Tater]

"hope you enjoyed the game, in spite of the outcome"

Man, what a miserable road trip this must be, especially for the new guys (Olsen, Shaw...) Trying to fit in and bond with a new team must be tough on the road when the other players are probably pissed off most of the time. After a loss, those plane trips must be brutal.

I'm sure pay day cleans up those issues.

Per NYR beat writers... Biron starting now.

Dammit stop it NYR start King Henrik, I don't wanna win, I want a new coach dammit.

 

[winos5]

Hammer still out?



Crow in net?



Who gets scratched tonight?



Just win, please and thankyou.

Where did I hear that before? Let me check...

Crawford is in net, Biron confirmed for NYR



When I get word of the line-up I will update.

It's pretty sad that a good team is sitting their starter when they go to play a team with tons of.....issues. You thought I was going to say talent, huh? Biron starting is a pretty good indicator that we are no longer being seen as a threat, of ANY kind.

 

[winos5]

True dat, but it could work in our favor. Shelling Biron and getting a blowout win over the Rangers would be a major slump buster.

Hope John Scott is in for this one... it could get nasty with how physical the Rangers are and how frustrated the Hawks have been.

What are you talking about? The Rangers are saving Lundqvist for the mighty Blue Jackets this weekend.. lol!

That would be nice, but at the same time, I want a new coach also... -.-



Choices choices...

People act like Biron sucks. I'd take him over both the Blackhawk goalie right now.



I heard from several sources that after the Nashville game, the Hawk locker room was the quietest it has ever been. Games like that can do more harm than good. If the Hawks had a coach that could turn this shit around and get the team going, I wouldn't worry so much. But that Nashville game, where the Hawks played pretty well and still lost, could have been the nail in the coffin.

 

[Chief Walking Stick]

Biron would be a number one on probably 20 NHL teams. The Blackhawks are probably one of them.

Probably? I'd take him in a heartbeat.



He's 10-2-2 with a 2.03 GAA and .919 save percentage... Thats a LOT better than what we have over here, not to mention this is his best season yet...

Who the **** you kidding, the hawks play charmin soft.

 

[Ashor-redtribe]

Hawks 3-2 with open netter. Pavel Kubina is going to be a Hawk
