I saw Latta had the gw in the shootout last night. May have seen him play once with the Caps. If i remember correctly hes a fourth line energy guy? |

I am just really curious if the Hawks changed their mind with regard to certain rookies. Have a feeling that either Schmaltz or Hartman might have a different address. Knowing what we saw last year with John Cooper liking Schmaltz... that definitely shows some writing on the wall. Still think that Hartman is more valuable and more mature... as well as the most experienced. Hopefully JJ can provide more info as it comes. |

Any franchise that wants to claim "dynasty" status has to check multiple items on the Hockey Gods' Tablets. Multiple cups with a core group is not enough. You have to go back-to-back. And you also have to redeem the suffering of an all-time great player in the twilight of their career who has never delivered a championship. You need a Hasek moment. You need a Robitaille moment. You need a Bourque moment. If these Hawks indeed aspire to Hockey Immortality, they need more than handing the Cup to Kimmo Timonen. They need to acquire Jarome Iginla, and etch his name for all time where it belongs.

Prediction: Latta's fighting ability and propensity to drop the gloves will make him a new favorite with Hawks' fans. |

Wasn't Chicago interested in him back when he ended up going to Colorado?Calgary probably would have taken less out of respect if Iginla wanted to go to the Hawks,he made his bed as far as I'm concerned. |

Getting error message on new thread too.
Per @ScottPowers (and others):
Blackhawks activate Rozsival from the injured reserve & reassign Forsling, Hinostroza, Kero & Schmaltz during the bye week
Cap saving maneuvers for moves JJ is tracking (See new blog post). |

They already had a Hossa moment. Granted, not the end of a career. But many retire before his age. |

Per @HawksBreakdown:
186 day season.
Schmaltz cap hit=925k
Daily cap hit=$4,973
If he's down for 6 days, that's $30,000 in cap space saved.
AND
Add in Kero, Forsling, & Hinostroza and Chicago will save close to $100,000 in cap space this week by having them in the AHL. |

(Quotes not working either)
Re: Oduya - will he be back from IR in time to be traded and/or able to play at playoff level in time? |

Stars website has Oduya still out from a lower body injury - out since January 17th.
He's missed 10 games...they don't have a status on return - the players that do have their status listed are out for several months...So I'd think JO will be back by the deadline.
If Nill flips him to the Pens or Caps - Stan's got no one to blame but himself for the Sharp fiasco that cost us JO two summers back. |

Toews said when asked last night that consistency of his linemates was a big part of the reason for his upgrade in his play lately. Just think if he ended up with a Duchene type as his LW. |

That's a bogus answer, TBH. It's part of it, but his play is all on him. |
