Seriously. They both have size, skill, stupid accents, excellent penile girth...but no, better off wasting roster/cap space on Shaw, Nordstrum, Steeg, Carcillo, Desjardins...

Brilliant work guys...signing the world's tiniest Russian makes up for it though...

Exactly.... but the Hawks are too busy paying two players 25% of the Cap. Then another 20% tied up in Crawford/Bickell/Sharp...

So 5 players make up 45% of your Cap when you still have to have 15+ other players on the roster.

And yet their still in their fifth conference final in eight years.

Yeah, not getting Kevin Hayes sucked. But he elected not to sign in Chicago. Wasn't really much else the Hawks regime could do about that.

And he hasn't even played a full season yet. Let's not get so far ahead ourselves here. Still time for him to shit the stairwell. (Again).

Kevin Hayes is pretty damn good. Jimmy Hayes? Sucked. Basically a softer Bryan Bickell.

And yet they haven't had to deal with a $22 million cap hit from Kane and Toews until next year. That's TEN million more allocated to those two players alone beginning next year.

Meanwhile Pirri, J Hayes, K Hayes et all going to other teams and becoming stars. Going to suck seeing those guys hoisting Cups while the Hawks are basement dwellers (like Tribar) for years to come.

Hahahahahahahah this is a joke, right?

Holy ****, they're going to have at least 4 future Hall of Famers on the roster next season, with three of them still very much in their primes. GTFO.

Didn't know 4 players could win a Cup?

And no the Tribar part wasn't a joke.

No. But when you surround those four players (19, 88, 81, 2) with a damn good supporting cast like Seabrook, Hjalmarsson, Saad, Teuvo and plenty more, the idea that the Hawks are going to be dwelling any basements is fucking laughable.

Can't wait for the Panarin/Teuvo/Kane line. Fucking midget hockey at it's finest. It'll be epic to watch three guys get dominated on the boards concurrently by one decent sized Dman.

When has Q ever put three players that small together?

You're complaining about problems that don't exist.

And the Hawks have won two Cups, while working on a third, playing a skill-first, puck-possession type of game. It's worked pretty fucking well to this point. Adding Panarin appears to make them even better at that style. What's the problem?

Put Panarin on a line with Bickell or Toews or Hossa and none of this is going to be a problem.

Too bad the Hawks can't afford Bickell next year.

Then they'll bring up 6-2, 209 Kyle Baun. Or 6-2, 214 Mark McNeill.

This worry about the Blackhawks' lack of size is something that seems to pop up every year. And then the Hawks silence it by, ya know, winning.

You do realize Hoss is going to die of old age on the ice within the next year or two, right?

Jagr is Czsech, Hossa is Slovak.... Slovaks tend to have a lower life expectancy.

Don't try to get snarky.

Well aware of their nationalities, thanks.

Hossa keeps himself in incredible physical condition. I've no doubt he can play into his 40s like Jagr.
