and there it is, the lazy Toews penalty on the Hawks PP.
Seriously the guy should simply retire.
Or if he's hurt, go on LTIR.
He's certainly hurting the club far more than helping.
So many complain about Kane's lack of D, lack of backchecking.
Have seen far more lazy-ass play from #19.
Hey Rain Man, I am waiting for the "Toews custom Bauer skate order was stopped at the border because of a Trump executive order" excuse.
Borderline playoff club?
LMAO - savvyone-1
I hope that big goof on STL smokes him cleanly tonight for his comment calling it horse crap hit on the Nashville kid....NO Johnny the only horse crap thing going on is your personal game.
Toews is showing the same signs as Seabrook. Noticeable in the wrong way.
HAHA....re Toews custom skates…... |

Anyone know the last time Saad or Toews actually hit someone? Not asking for them to run guys but they are the kings of the fly by. Literally never lay a hit. Opposing players just hold the puck and let them skate by. Maybe lay a hit once in a while..... |

Lose board battle. Don’t move feet. Results in another slashing penalty by Toews. - bhawks2241
Hes bad. Love his past, but his present is horrid. |

Literally go back and forth as to whether it is a decline in skill or if he’s just lost his edge and will to compete.
A lot of it appears to be effort and his loss of strength on his skates. |

Takes too much energy 2241.
And if 19 did hit someone, I'm sure he'd immediately fall down.
Never seen a guy fall down and so weak on his skates like him, especially someone 6ft+, 200+ lbs. Something wrong somewhere. |

Obviously not real hawk fans. - gifman
When anyone makes a financial commitment to a team, its up to them how they use it. Doesn't make them any worse of the fan then somebody who sits in a half full stadium. Everyone has a breaking point...…
This is just the beginning. When this team misses the playoffs again, baring a 180 degree turn by 85% of the roster, it will send a lot of people packing and they can enjoy the same email I got 2 years ago when I had enough and they asked why.....I laid it out and got zero response.
Crawford will be fired by Thursday at the latest. They won't let this hang out there long. ... |

Number one highlight at intermission is how impressive Wedins ability to stop is and the big snow shower it made...
Just sad. |

I liked Highmore's 2 games waaay more than Wedin's. I'm also biased. Wedin doesn't do anything. |

Does nothing for either. A lot of hustle but never in the right spot. Ends up being a lot of wasted energy chasing the play. No idea why he is up. |

I started to notice it vs Nashville when Johanson ran a train on him and Keith in that series. That was the start of the decline and for Toews.....he hasn't recovered since.....Oh he had he his flash last year, but outside of that its been a decline in production for multiple years.
He falls down more then an instructional mens league team. Could be his back. Could be his balance is off with a head issue. Could be a training issue. Could be a want to compete issue. Nobody knows. All we know is what we see and if he's out there every night and rarely taking "maintenance days" like a Keith and even Kane do....I can't buy a back issue. See if those "maintenance days" pick up.... |

Sucks...I loved the DeHaan, Shaw, Maata moves. Loved the Lehner signing. Was ok with Smith as I realized AA had to go and they needed more jam. Was excited to see 17/12 continue to produce and give them a 2 line attack.
I just don't think they are talented enough. They are way too slow on D and 56 is so damn bad in his own end, that if he's not 1984 Paul Coffey it doesn't justify him being on the team.
Special teams are just horrid. PK gives up way too many grade A chances, and PP rarely gets any sustained pressure.
ITs truly a complete dumpster fire right now....and firing JC and replacing him Crawford isn't even possible.
What frightens me most is....who is the next wave of the top pairing? Murphy? he just got deked out of his jock by Schwartz down low that set up O'Reillys point blank chance on the PP. Murphy could be a top 4, but not a guy I want out there in game 7 in charge of shutting down the leagues elite.....

As bad as this year is
Next number of years will be
worse
Lehner moves on -
Defence men will be learning on the fly
Keith retires - Toews & Seabrook- bad contracts - unmovable players
Kane asks for a trade
Cat over paid
Not many prospects
Incompetent coach & GM
Oh boy - a mess |

that stop drew the most oohhs and aahhs from the crowd too in that second period. This teams play has lulled the crown to sleep as well.

Agreed. I am in favour of having Highmore get more NHL time this season.

Lots of empty 100 level seats tonight. When you consider it's against one of our biggest rivals AND the defending SC champs, that's a really bad signal to McD et al. |

Yeah, I would curious to hear how many boxes are in use.....
They did a pretty big turnover this summer and are getting the same results.....thnk they have to look at their core....that's the constant lately and the results aren't getting better. |

Wedin, Smith, Nylander ... Gus! ... KOEK!
The only hawks I saw show up tonight & liked their games were Saad, Kampf, & Kane. Adb & Murphy had their moments, but definitely far from a complete game. Not looking good peoples. |

How many years left on those contracts. 3.5 seasons. Oh boy |
