Yep....I think putting him on the Toews line will be huge especially if Bickel continues with his effort...tough line to defend.

Kane and Toews are inextricably linked with the resurgence of the franchise and they obviously play very well together. I'd submit that Toews' serious nature subtly and in an unspoken way, makes Kane more accountable and makes him want to produce more.

Yup....nice correlation Beav

thank you sir!

If the Conn Smythe was given for heart and effort Hammer would be leading the field.
- UnnamedSource

In my mind....Hammer is pretty much INDESTRUCTABLE...the kid EATS bullets and always comes back. PURE HEART.

Hammer's been OUTSTANDING as have Fro, Krugs and DUNCS.

My go to pairing when the chips are down. Duncs logged like 40 something minutes last night and no doubt about it..he's in Norris form.

Ordered my eight year old son a #4 youth jersey yesterday....

Oh FOR SURE. Choosing a new jersey after we win the cup has suddenly become a much harder task

Saw a guy at the 2010 Hawks' convention with a brand new shirt (red)

that had the word TWENTY on the back with the number 10....pretty clever.

NICE


Like Kruger, wish Hammer would shoot more. He's got a hard, accurate shot and that weapon should come out of the holster more often.

Didn't Keith end up with over 40 minutes of ice time?

He put it away the last two years...I seem to remember him loading up more during 2010. I would also be working on a 5 year extension for him this off season.

Who I leads me to: something must be wrong with Seabrook.

Too many unforced blown tires, too many swing-and-miss pass attempts....

I didn't see the numbers but it's quite possible.

Moments of great play but has mostly been average.

He'd join Chara, in jail for what he did (purposefully, IMO) to Pacioretty.

No doubt about it I never understood how people defended that hit. Just watch it on youtube.

tredbrta: Your recommendations from the other thread read like they were written by a suburbanite. Como Inn has been closed for years and the rest of your recommendations look like you looked at a 1998 Fodor's Guide to Chicago.

UnnamedSource: I see I'm not the only one that thinks you're a self-important turd. Keep posting, pal. People like you. They really do. Just keep telling yourself that.

Glad to see certain people keep calling 88 a passenger who, parenthetically, "finally stepped up" because that fits their narrative better than recognizing Kane's immense talent, heart and unbelievably clutch play.

Glad Ogi finally realized some of his foolishness. Others here have recognized it for a while.

Fans don't have to be bad fans. But, I guess fans that spend countless hours on an Internet message board feel that's their right and many here, including the esteemed blogger, personify that notion. And if you offer a contrary opinion you're called a kook-aid drinker and branded a shill for the organization instead of a reasonable, level-headed poster that sees the vision of the organization and really appreciates what is happening. Maybe you had to have long-suffered as a Hawks fan to have that perspective.

I PM'd him my review of NEXT and a course selection.

Did your shower just end? If so you may want to head back in as I can still smell you through the computer.

Today's bouquet includes yesterday's burnt grass and knowitallASSHAT but also has a very strong tang of effete snob.....No, make that pretentious and not effete.

BTW, why don't you go back to beating your kids? No one here is interested in your personal assessments. Also, after your profile by profile review of each poster I am CERTAIN no one is interested in your opinion on hockey either. So please, have another snifter of ESAD.

Probably thinks, we'll, I put one into the back of the net, and look what happened - I'm not going thru that again.

He seems uncomfortable going on the offense, but i recall he had a big goal in San Jose in 2010 and then the SNIPE that was washed out by that Wanker Walkom.
And believe he got a helper on Kane's tap in goal in L.A. .

Extension should be tabled ASAP for sure.

He was a passenger for the first 15 games of this run...true story.

Kind of like this A$$hole baanneeerrrman?

He's the passenger in the back of the plane with a cough that sounds like TB and smells like gasoline and keeps saying he belongs in first class.

Somebody call the air marshal and lock the D!ck in the toilet already!

Agree with wanting the Hammer to shoot more. Good things seems to happen when he does.

See STL's post 5 above your post that i quote here....Seabs is my boy, but he's gotta return Monty's clown shoes before something really bad happens.

.......he seems like such a treat....

When I think of adjectives to describe you the words reasonable or level headed are not on the list....I feel a comparison to a village idiot or someone who has a tad bit of knowledge who all of sudden thinks they are an expert is more of accurate description of your own self described intelligence. Your analysis of hockey is closer to that of a 2 year old who picks his nose and is still figuring how to wipe his own arse. You are still good for something though...a good laugh especially when you argue Saad is the replacement for Hossa. You are the poster child for fan stupid suffering from self inflicted arrogance because you view your opinions as facts. However, please never go away and continue to post......like my dogs who great me at the door every day I use your drivel to put me in a good mood. Thank you......
- UnnamedSource

What you said plus some.

I'm still loving General Saad. He needs about 5-10 years and twice the upper body strength to be Hossa.
