Tazer sitting on 599 points and Krugs on 99......see if they can both get the big round numbers in the 3rd.

Bruins scrored 399 goals that year...

...and won 57 games.

76 by esposito; 19% of bruin total....whoa..

worst hawk trade ever...yeah I think so

Gotta keep pumping in the 3rd. Edmonton can score in a hurry.

Is Rozy an option to LTIR to free up a few pennies ?

Via @EliasSports: @Capitals join the 1970-71 Bruins as the only teams in NHL history to score at least 5 goals in 11 consecutive home games.
- ILGolfer

they might just finally break through this year...only the pens have a shot of beating them in 7

frickn 71 goal differential

Hawks looking much more legit than earlier this season, win streaks be damned. Loved seeing Keith shut down McDavid.

Hey, old timers , with excellent 1990s knowledge of the Blackhawks , I was just a kid. The time Brett Hull was a FA I had heard the Blackhawks wwre almost a done deal to sign him. What happened ? Any truth to that ?

Really curious to see how this 3rd period goes, are they going to put them away or play with no urgency and let them right back in the game

Phil Esposito with Ken Hodge and Fred Stanfield to Boston for Pit Martin, Jack Norris, and Gilles Marotte.

3 for 1 basically...with Phil just coming into his prime.

One of the worst deals ever, and only because Phil pissed off Tommy Ivan.

You see it all the time, big ego's destroy franchises,
How's that Seguin deal working out for Boston?

The hawks can't keep trading away picks for rentals. I like Boyle. He'd fit nicely but he's a rental option only. Pokka is a nice player. I think he'd be a horse for Chicago. Vanek has proven to be a bad gamble.

JVR although as stated already isn't available and even if he was, the Hawks don't have the available assets to acquire him, would be a nice fit. Affordable contract, young guy who would put up good #'s. A player of his ilk and contract would be a smart forward thinking move.

The only thing I heard for sure Paulish is that after the 11 years in St. Louis in 1998 he wanted to play for the Hawks but the Stars made him an offer "he couldn't refuse" so to speak and Dollar Bill Wirtz didn't want to match it....duh.

wirtz and co were not going to pay for hull...also remember his father was still on the outs with the hawks...

New goalie for the Oil.....

For sure bogie.....the old man wanted no part of any Hull.

That was a fine period of Blackhawk hockey.

Best second period I've seen them play in a long time,including this win streak.

Not a bad example, but Boston questioned Seguin's commitment publicly, soon after he was traded?

As long as they are Cup contenders, why not? It'd be a mistake not to.

wild will get those 3 games in hand while the hawks are on vacation: wings, stars, ducks at home; 8 str @ home for the wild...

Panarin proving me wrong. Good to see him pumping those legs again.

Would like to see the Hawks get a few shots on Brossoit...

2nd place is still very impressive for this team all things considered. I'll take it.

Yeah that was complete garbage. At least Eriksson was serviceable for them after a while.
