Can we define Corey Crawford yet?</p></blockquote>


Not if the Hawks had failed yet again to score more than one goal and lost that game. Then he would've had to look at himself in the mirror the entire off-season.

Nope...I've come to terms that -</p>


McDononugh sucks</p>


Wirtz sucks</p>


Stan sucks</p>


Q sucks</p>


Kompon sucks</p>


Kitchen sucks - (the idiot in charge of the pk)</p>


The PP sucks</p>


Stalberg sucks</p>


Bickell sucks (people cried and wanted him waived last year)</p>


Shaw sucks (shouldn't be a center/bad penalties)</p>


Handzus sucks (4th line at best...way to slow)</p>


Carcillo sucks</p>


Bollig sucks</p>


Oduya sucks (+5, 23 blocks well lead the team - and prevent goals)</p>


Roszival sucks</p>


Leddy sucks (should be in rockford)</p>


 </p>


So this whole organization is terrible, and all their stats/records is meaningless.</p>


 </p>


I'm with GRIMSON...this team/organization is all smoke and mirrors.  And as TCD once said - they are the ones that all need a clue on what they;re doing</p>

 

[Ton]

I still don't think Shaw is a good center.</p>


 </p>


Oduya was the direct cause of the goal last night.</p>

 

[xatruio]

wins more faceoffs than bolland it seems and it is all we got for now, so he is serviceable (while being productive, so i dont see how hes a bad center really). Once our C prospect depth pans out he can be properly slotted on wing.

Can't argue that. I would just prefer him at wing, not necessarily saying he's a bad player. I just think he plays better with a legitimate center to take care of most of the responsibility, not sure he can handle all of that on his plate... but hes definitely one of the better options on the team right now, until Pirri or someone else proves themselves next year.</p>

Yep..I agree.  He was the only person on the ice.</p>


 </p>


Kronwall blows too for Seabrook's goal.  Same gap control/lack there of there.</p>


 </p>


Both those 2 suck.</p>


 </p>


Or any of Hjarllmarsson's team leading giveaways (saw 2 in one shift last night)...that always are over looked.</p>


 </p>


Hjarllmarsson had a pathetic giveaway in game 2 when Zetteberg took the puck from him, resulting in a goal.  Where were those tears?  No where...it's ok for him to do it.</p>

That's not what I was suggesting at all... </p>

 

[PatrickShart]

It's all  Q, Stan, Kompon, Handzus, McDonough, Oduya's fault!!</p>


 </p>

</p>

 

[PatrickShart]

Oduya causes everything!</p>


 </p>

</p>

 

[LordKOTL]

Blame where blame is due:</p>


 </p>


Oduya did have a good 2nd period, but he did misplay on Detroit's tying goal.  I do think he's looked better with Hammer and Leddy's not letting Rosie drag him down as much as it looks like Oduya did.</p>

 

[PatrickShart]

</p>

 

[MassHavoc]

I love how when something goes well it's all Oduya, but when something goes bad there is all of a sudden other players on the ice. You're worse than Pete in political threads.</p>

 

[PatrickShart]

And you're shitty to have to always blame the same player and turn blind eyes when you're love able players make the same mistakes


But I guess the sheep follow

 

[Ton]

Oduya's mistake ended up in the back of the net, that's the only difference. I don't see anyone calling for his head, just pointing out the mistake. Plus, Hjalmarsson (since you brought him up) may have turned over the puck a couple times, but he was the one that sparked that 3-on-1 by getting the puck up quickly (while his back was turned) in that change and on the tape for Handzus, no assist for the play though — and although it didn't count, he scored.</p>


 </p>


Just like the fact that Crawford let in a shitty goal in Game 6.</p>


 </p>


We won the series, I can care less about either mistake... onto the Kings.</p>

Damn near!</p>

 

[the canadian dream]

I have said it before Oduya is a high risk high reward player. Hes going to make errors here and there. Im sure if someone threw together an Oduya high lite reel that the good would trump the bad completely. I still think its Stans best deal (Leddy is close though). Speaking of Leddy...that guy needs someone to support him when he makes his crazy ass end to end rushes..boy that cat can skate. Someone needs to trail him when he does that as he runs out of space all the time because no one supports him.</p>

 

[JOVE23]

That end to end shit reminds me of Bobby Orr.</p>

 

[Spunky Porkstacker]

Agree on Leddy. I like him alot on the power play too but Q "the magnificent line generator" must not agree.

The one thing I've learned about Q after all these years is when playoff time comes he tends to lean on the old guard.</p>


The grizzled vets. Not a big fan of the Q coaching style and can be stubborn to a fault.</p>
