Blackhawks lines in warmups vs. Oilers are all switched up:

Donato-Bedard-Kurashev
Beauviller-TJohnson-Raddysh
Foligno-Richardinson-Anderson
Reichel-Guttman-Entwistle

Vlasic-Crevier
Phillips-Murphy
Roos-Zaitsev

Wonder how often Knoblock will try and get McDavid against Roos and Zaitsev.

Be interesting to see how all the defenders handle the Oiler speed.

Just wow

Dynamite goal— nice f——- pass 72- right on

Oh My!

For those of us that are, uh, a little more "frugal", I found a streaming site for NHL games that does not have annoying pop-ups and silly adverts.

You may not get a choice of home or away broadcast but it is a clean and smooth interface.

holy poope! came right up RR...thanks a million!

Wow Raddyish has stone hands this year. You guys a delay in the feed compared to the announcing?

LR will not be happy with Reichel on that goal.

Yes with the delay

Edmonton to Rockford would be the worst bus ride in North America, and Reichel deserves it.

Flat out awful… bottom line

Glad it’s not just me.

When they were talking to Pickard, it totally reminded me of the five minute stretches Foley and Edzo would talk about a small donut shop in East Lansing.

Crevier’s positioning is solid.

Bedard’s wingers just can’t get open to give him options. He needs someone with some speed and smarts.

EDM defense is like a bakery, they have a lot of turnovers.

Yeah if the Hawks had a more skilled lineup they might have more. Grade A chances off of pizzas.

Did your boy play youth hockey in CA? The Kings and Ducks youth and midget programs send a lotta kids to the USHL.

No, we moved to Boston when he was 4 months, he ran cross country in HS.

Yeah Edmonton ain’t going far in the playoffs with that defense and goalie.

Bedard just gets off a shot at pace that shows it's a freakish anomaly. Watching the EDM feed they're dumbfounded. ,,,, Couple minutes later McD is coming in the same way Bedard just did and fires much the same way and distance.

A fantastic compare and contrast opportunity of their shots that happened so close to each other that it's fresh in the mind..... Question? I came away from the above immediately thinking McD's shot/release looked slow!! Anyone get that same feeling.

Is Bedard's shot so other wordly he makes Connor McDavid look slow???

And did you catch him not moving his feet to come back properly in that same sequence? At the redline wall he engages, passed 15 ft up, tipped by a Hawks player and Reichel was slow to get toward the play and EDM starts the scoring sequence from there.

Nice in and check up by Reichel, forced to spin and he rims but Bouchard stays at the wall 20 ft downstream (helluva read by that kid) and Riechel a step late to tie up the stick that scored........ 3 miscues, not 2 by Reichel on the scoring play.

Maybe earned a seat next game?

Hawks getting spanked again. And many more to come ! What a joke of a team.

I understand that Kaiser was struggling… no reason zaitsev should be taking ice time

Talk about struggling
I struggle believing Richardson is making right decision playing Roos what maybe three shifts. Sure less TOI for Roos especially considering the Edmonton speed and home ice change match up. Nonetheless shortening the bench goes too far when you barely let the newbie skate. Maybe Roos gets more TOI against another team. After all Roos is a puck moving good skater and not a hard hitting slow dman

Connor Murphy out there doing things….

Reichel and beauvillier zero
