[quote name="Tommy 0"]Ok Ok i couldnt belive i seen it myself untill i took a picture of it, the guy actually looked like Scott but much shorter, i dont know maybe a family member i thought, then i thought if it was why would they be upstairs.[/quote]



Well he only plays 3 minutes a game so maybe the Hawks don't give him tickets... and ya know maybe it was all he could afford with his league minimum salary.

Nice!



I think I saw you beating on the glass a couple times last night as well... lots of action in that corner.

Something I noticed:



Against the Sabres, Ko-T-H was playing poorly until they shifted Sharp as their center.



This past game Ko-S-H was playing poorly until they shifted Toews as their center.



I like that. We can effectively have two very different looking 1-2 lines by just swapping centers, and both can be effective. I figure if one set is not working swap Towes and Shapr and likely something will give.

Hahah, I love how the real photobomb in that picture is Cullimore.

The ONLY thing worth looking at in that picture is Mrs. RK

[quote name="E Runs"]Haven't read all nine pages but just wanted to comment on Cullimore setting the wheels in motion for the game winner. Real nice play by the guy and he was smart enough to give the puck to Kane when he ran out of options.[/quote]

No worries ERuns. I got the Cliff Notes below.



You got yer 1 page of discussion of Hossa, Sharp, Kane, Cullimore, Turco, Kopecky, Q's line juggling, and the refs.



And you got 8 pages of Scott discussion. Yep.



If I was going to Krausen this thread, I would say chuck the Scott argument.



And there you have it.

Boynton made a really dumb play taking out his own man, but that aside, he's been very solid if you ask me. He's been terrific with his shot blocking and defensive deflections. He's averaging a whopping 21:32 of ice time so far this season, which is about seven or eight minutes too much. When that gets cut eventually, it'll greatly reduce the risk of mistakes.



With expectations in mind, Cullimore's been fine too. Yeah, he'll flub a few passes, and guys like Gaborik, Crosby and Parise will give him troubles in footraces and quick turns, but so what? If he can play 12-13 minutes a night and focus on penalty killing, he might turn out to be an asset before it's said and done.



As it stands, I like the above two as an experienced mop-up third pairing when Campbell gets back. Stay back, block shots & chip it out.



Keith & Seabrook: 24-26 minutes

Hjalmarsson & Campbell: 20-22 minutes

Cullimore & Boynton: 12-14 minutes



Mhm.

Pretty much exactly what we had on defense when we won the cup, with Cullimore taking Sopel's spot.
