GAME #51

Start the last part of the season and the last long road trip with a W. The Hawks are talented enough to be in the top portion of the Conference but are not because primarily they do NOT play 60 minutes.
You play 60 minutes from here on out and you will have home ice in the first round.
You don't and you will either be in the lower tier, or miss them all together. It's time to get off the fucking POT and do something!!
Q on WGN last week estimated about 10 pts have been lost due to not playing a full 60 min.
To think that we were that close to getting that many more pts with the adversity the team had been going through earlier this season makes me think this team will be in the hunt for more than just making the playoffs if they can consistently fire on all cylinders.
Interesting that Turco gets the nod... as if Crawford hasn't had enough time off?
His last outing was far from great I suppose, I actually thought it might have been one of his worst performances to date -- leave it to Quenneville to suck the confidence out of a goaltender.
I hope Marty can get his game back on track. I'm not all that confident in starting another ROOKIE in the Playoffs, if we even make it. And before everyone forgets, Turco has always done incredible in the Playoffs, but never had the team in front of him to advance to the Finals. If he can play anything like he did behind Dallas, we will be in good shape.
and another 10 for Q's screwy on ice decisions. That's 20pts. They are 16pts off the pace from last year right now.
