I also think if you never have the puck its very hard to score.............

Hard to argue with that, considering it's been all Florida in this 3rd period

What, NHL coaches know more than you? Nah......

If it was only that easy.

Its a bit tough to watch

Not if your expectations are where they should be. The team is rebuilding with allot of rookies, very little experience and only one star player. I expect that most teams are better than the hawks, and that there are going to be mistakes. The Hawks are tied tonight because they are working every bit as hard as Florida.

Maybe we can get 1 shot on this pp. Maybe even win a faceoff.

Wow it only took 9 minutes for us to mount any kind of offensive pressure

Now make their block head pay for that penalty.

Getting tough with Suter, half his size, tough guy

You want me to watch and use logic, you have the wrong guy

Adams gotta shoot that puck

Hawks always play down to the level of the competition.

Cross your fingers for this one.

Or not.

This is what I expected at the beginning of the season.

That's really too bad

To be down 1 against a tough team?

Tight road games against one of the best teams in the league? I thought much worse.

Barkov is one Hellova player....

No, sloppy play and giving up shorties when you have an opportunity to win.

A Hossa-like beast.

2 PPG and 1 SHG just really to bad they played a good game 5 on 5. Is that 3 or 4 times i see a defenseman in tight by the net and the puck slides harmlessly and slowly out of the offensive zone

Next game can we please go with 7 defenseman. Anyone double shifting will be more productive than Highmore.

Well, honestly I did as well. It doesn't mean though that you can't get aggravated when they have 3 - 1 leads and lose.

Man, maybe I'm bit tough, but not going to make excuses for them every time they play bad.

That'll do it.

Once again can't stop the opponent from scoring 2 quick back to back goals again and unfortunately they lose. They did such a better job of no free shots from center ice, to bad

Special teams was bad. 5 on 5 was fine. Rookies & journeymen & a depleted roster. They are what they are. I look for the great opportunities we have down the road with these guys.

No need for excuses, they just aren't as good as FL, imo. Or Tampa. Or Carolina.
