The Hawks' PP

[Pez68]

My number one issue is "spreading the wealth" on the PP. Load up the best five guys for the first PP unit, and ride it out, just like EVERY OTHER TEAM IN THE NHL DOES.



I don't understand how a team as loaded as the Hawks are, can be in the bottom half of the NHL on the PP. Three out of the last four seasons. Last year....26th. This year, I'd be surprised if they finish above 20.



I don't understand the setup. I don't understand what they're trying to do. I don't understand why all they attempt is the backdoor pass.



Discuss.

AGREE!!!!



Stack that son of a *****. And stop throwing it up to Keith at the point who can't get a shot through worth ****. He owes everyone in the league a new pair of skates for the amount of times he shoots into them.



And why the **** is Bolland getting PP time with Toews and Kane? **** THAT SHIT!!!

 

[Pez68]

Bolland on the PP....ugh. Saad, Toews, Kane, Seabrook, Leddy. Right now, anyways. When Hossa and Sharp are back, I'd love to see the first unit as Toews, Kane, Sharp, Hossa, Seabrook.. Hossa playing the right point with Seabrook on the left. Start making some fucking sense and putting guys out there where they are effective.

I doubt the Hawks PP could score even if they stacked one unit. They have problems just entering the zone and once there they try to get too cute or just blast into the first opponent and allow the puck to exit the zone. Repeat ad nauseam.

Thank god they got rid of kitchen after last season. Imagine the pp if they didn't. What? U serious?! What's next? U gonna tell me that my $31 dollar jersey I bought from china isn't authentic? Btw...did u know that ccm jerseys from the 90s had fight straps?

Don't forget the back door passes. It's great when the opposing commentators talk about the goalie needing to time it right "when it happens"

Went 25% last night which is a very good success rate and are sitting @ 18% for the season. The 2010 SC team finished below 18% for the season.

Forgive me. I'm a cubs fan. My pessimism puts woody allen to shame. U and ur freakin math

just wait until Sharp comes back and the PP is running with 5 forwards who all shoot left.

 

[PatrickShart]

Sharps a leftie? Oh wait...I forgot who I was

 

[Rex]

oh my bad. Only Toews, Hossa, Keith and Kane are.



Four out of five, and a winger on the point is a great idea for a PP unit.



carry on.

I know the pain, same here.

 

[PatrickShart]

Since the PP lines have been - Shaw, Toews, Hossa, Keith, Seabrook....2 righties.....and then Sharp, Kane, Stalberg, Bolland, Leddy...again, 2 righties...



I guess I see the confusion
