I don't love him, but a strong like is beginning to develop.

A strong like from kwolf68... That's pretty much love haha

Coo Coo has outplayed all Hawks dman...Intermission interview shows how composed this guy is....When does the Blackhawks coaching staff have the guts to sit #7 as a healthy scratch.

Hate to beat the dead horse bc he was once great...but man he’s just not an NHL player anymore. Plain and simple his skating is inadequate. If he can’t improve his skating next summer he’s (frank)in toast. DONE. He needs to stay in Chicago and work his ass out 5 days a week with a personal trainer focusing on agility and quickness . If he can’t improve, he should volunteer for LTIR. $7million defenseman are supposed to be impact players, but POSITIVE impact opposed to a negative one.

Staying with my motto to not bash Seabrook, but it's hard to watch him most days.

These are dark times. We're "dirty" fans.

He got it from a White House press release.

I see Q in Winnipeg next season.

Two things tonight I agree with
-Keith gets too much flack on this board / most nights he’s been very good
- Q in the PEG made sense to me from day 1
- Still rather sign Stone & or Karlssen than Breadman ( he doesn’t give me the team player vibes)

The question is, did you do it on porpoise?
- TrueGrit

Only if you are flippering players at the trade dead line.

Agree.

Just wait. Its only 1 period... And lets watch how many times #7 ices the puck and falls on his ass....

This whole team - forwards and defensemen - apparently can’t play whatever system Colliton is trying to implement.

They will all look bad if theCoach doesn’t put them in position to succeed.

Too much reliance on Ward/Delia to cover the mistakes in dangerous positions - and eventually, the regression to the mean.

JC getting out coached. 19 is still, by far, the Hawks best defensive center. Pairing 88 with 19 weakens 19’s defensive play.

JC is trying to play 15 & 17 against the CBJ top line. Guess which centers have been on for all 3 CBJ goals? 17, 17 & 15.

Yeah JC is such an idiot. He keeps putting the Toews/Kane line in position to take over games, and they've only done it 8 out of 9 times. What a (frank)ing loser

Kane is hands down the best if not one of the top three best players in the league hands down at age thirty....bowman needs to stop having wet dreams and blow this thing up while he can with desperate teams to dump as much salary as he can now..,. Because there is no way a team is going to take a Seabrook or a Keith, etc. at the draft without a sweetener....

Build this thing up where it needs to be... back at the top... not saying we’re going to win a cup every year... but we still have some time with Kane and Toews to be dangerous if things are done right

Yeh, they look great against all the non-playoff teams. Good team like BOS and CBJ are eating their lunch.

Whats the point...Seab will not waive NMC....

Which is why they are what they are - a bubble playoff team competitive with the other bubble teams but not Cup competitors.

Jeez - we’ve known that all season.

I guess you don't count the wins against Washington, NYI, and Minnesota? Or they don't count because they don't push your narrative?

Not what I typed but who knows what autocorrect produces. It’s what I get for trying to watch the tube as I’m typing.

P.s. wouldn’t mind being down in Kokomo right now, and I’m not talking about the one in Indiana.

How was that hit on Ward not a penalty-

Once again this dzone coverage ends up with a guy literally WIDE OPEN in the slot. Man to man continues to be exposed with the rotation and skill of NHL forwards and defenseman moving all over the zone. Smh now a bench minor...

This horrible man to man system doesn’t help him.

This is some of the worst defense we've seen in Chicago in 15 years. Can't tell if it's personnel, system? Probably a bit of both.

Some nice saves - but too manu ineffective Hawk shots.

CBJ has 21 SC on 34 SAT.

Hawks have only 13 on 30.
