5-6%?

That's a tall order. Don't get me wrong, I like the guy.

- Hawks82


That's winning one more per game, assuming 20 draws taken in a game. Doesn't seem insurmountable.

It isn't out of the realms of possibilities. Look how much Kruger improved from last year to this year? He definitely has the hand eye coordination for it. He just played his first full 82 game season for the Hawks.

A couple face offs per game doesn't seem like the largest thing in the world. Improve? Fine idea. End of the world?

Hey TG. Rumor has it Handzus wants to come back? Would a 3 year deal be fair?

Everyone has doubted Shaw. I found it very telling what Kane had to say about the 3 of them staying together. To me, it was a bit of a kick in the ass to both Saad and Shaw. Just my take on it.

Shaw centering Saad and Kane is not the end of the world, by a long shot. If Stan can maneuver his way into getting some bottom 6 depth like the 2013 team (or close to it) then there is no issue with the 2nd line. Sure, Shaw will go through some dry spells, but most guys too.

If Shaw starts the season at 2C I won't be upset. If Stan doesn't improve the bottom 6 I will be.

More like don't rest on your laurels and they need to work hard together this summer. Improve in some areas. And they could be something special with putting the work in.

I watched the NBA tonight for the first time in a couple years. Not a good product these days, imo.

I'm more of a Ruffles guy, myself, but there's no such thing as a bad tasting potato chip, I don't think.
