WTH was Dach doing in the defensive zone ? Skated right away with the player with the puck

I'm ok with Bruce Gorton coming in & if moving Kane & Toews is in his plan
Time to trust someone

Next team to draft Conner Bedard fast forwards the rebuild!

By the way
Edmonton is the real deal !

I think Bedard will be outstanding. On one hand I’d love to see Chicago get him, on the other I don’t want the Hawks to be a cellar dweller next season.

I think Edmonton needs a goalie if they want to go far in the playoffs.

Dach has no business being on the ice

I can’t believe I am saying this but I would rather see Carpenter in the bumper than Dach

How many games did Carpenter get in the bumper? I say they give Dach the same opportunity.

If he went public in 2010 or 2011 people might have felt quite differently. Going public 11 years later and asking for $10’s of millions shades the public’s view of the situation.

If you say so, but then again the same crowd i believe would have a different twist on it, since they have no empathy for the victim

Wasted draft king....Dach at best will be an average center in the NHL...The kid can't finish and never wins the battle in the board ..Doesn't have any shot...

That is the one place that Gus had pretty good success with this team - maybe throw him out there.

I am starting to agree with those who've said it's time to send Kirby down for some more seasoning. Maybe it's just a particularly bad game for him?

Strome with another offensive zone penalty. It has to be the 3rd or 4th in his limited playtime. That needs to be coached out of him.

At the game. There are 6.50 hotdogs still. I was complaining earlier because I got a Vienna dog which is 7.50 or so.

Yeah - let’s give up on the 20 year old.

Tough crowd.

Hey dude, Carpenter is making a league minimum while Hawks believe Dach is the next big center for Bhawks for years to come. Give Carpenter a break...How can anybody criticize a guy who plays his ass out each and every play while making a league minimum...There was a reason he was playing in pp..Because both Strome and Dach sucks.

I could play my ass off for the league minimum too, but I’d still suck. Effort doesn’t equal ability. Carpenter sucks ass, no matter how hard he tries, no matter how much he makes.

To be fair to Beach, who is someone I never really cared for. Would you want to pursue a career in pro hockey with that information out there? If he took $hit from the Blackhawk players, what was it going to be like in AHL locker rooms or wherever else he was going to try to make a living?

If you say so, but Carpenter is thirty years old and Dach is twenty, I’d rather have Dach on the power play than Carpenter, and that’s my opinion, dude.

Yeah, I'm sure you suck no matter how hard you try....Apparently JC believed Carpenter was better than Strome or Dach....Get with it...

Did he?

He simultaneously claims he didn’t tell anyone about it, yet he was made fun of for it? And if he was made fun of, then how did he “repress the memory” for 11 years? His story is full of holes IMO.

OK, would rather see Kurashev try the bumper position

He’s 20.

We all (mostly) know he should be learning in Rockford. He’s not ready for The Show.

But to say he’ll never be dis…dat…or d’udda…is absurd.

(I know - you didn’t. But someone else did.)

Id rather have Jones at the bumper with Kalynuk on the blue line

That's just me though

Dach needs his minutes for sure, like Strome btw bad penalty by Strome dammit

He's fine, just needs minutes

- LAHawk

That’s fair, but Carpenter does not belong on the PP, he belongs on the fourth line, and some don’t think he belongs on any line. By the way, we have not seen it this year, but Kurashev has a really good wrist shot.

Well when i played sports we called each other all kinds of things, so it's possible he was sensitive to some of the things he was being called. Aldrich was an authority figure, Beach was a student

Man that's 3 breakaways, nothing, now 4
