2013-14 Defending Champion Blackhawks Regular Season Thread

Heh. I hate when I turn on the game late and it's 3-0 already but at the same time I kind of like it.

It's been every bit as dominating as the score makes it sound.

And yet it will be tied soon as they've decided to start playing like morons.

[UMFan83]

[expletive] pissing this one away

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Meh, second half of back-to-back at end of long road trip.

[UMFan83]

20-4-4....second best start in Hawks history. Wonder when the best start was? :)

 

6-1-0 on the road trip with 10 goals allowed.

They are starting to run and hide in the President's Trophy race though a few contenders have games in hand.

[bcl412]

Just start the playoffs.

This is lovely. I wonder if Toews will ever win the Hart, or if he'll get snubbed like Yzerman. The one difference is that Yzerman had Gretzky blocking him. Toews is legitimately the best player in the NHL.

Right. I believe there are still 3 teams that can match or surpass our point total by winning their games in hand but were still in a great position 1/3 of the way into the season

[Hairyducked Idiot]

That's better, tied 3-3. I was about to give up on sports for the month.

[Soul]

Score 'em in bunches. Classic Blackhawks

Ha ha

 

These guys are so [expletive] good. You better cut their throats when given a chance, otherwise it's pretty much guaranteed they will come back and find a way.

Yeah but how many does it take? They just erased a 3 goal deficit in less than a period, hah.

[Butterscup1679666578]

I never thought the Blackhawks would be the only team I have, but they're so [expletive] good it's almost worth it. Almost.

[UMFan83]

First give up a penalty shot and goal, then can't score on a 90 seconds of 2 man advantage, then with the last PP still going you give up a breakaway and commit a penalty. ugh!

[Soul]

How many point blank shots is this guy gonna stop?!?

[UMFan83]

hawks outshoot the stars 50-18 and lose 4-3

Play stupid and lose. Dumb penalties, bad turnovers, and poorly timed line changes.

[E.J.]

Pretty bad when you're goalie lets in 4 of 18 shots.

Yeah, but 50-18

[Captain Serious]

Pirri sent down; Nordstrom & Morin recalled.

I have a hard time getting upset about that loss. It happens. First game back after a long trip. They let down early but then showed they were by far the better team just couldn't bury chances. Play like that you win a lot of games.

[biittner77]

Tonight's 3rd line: Morin-Nordstrom-Brookbank.

 

If these 3 combine for more than 20 minutes TOI it means that the Hawks either scored 25 goals in the first period or took a lot of dumb penalties.

 

Oh, Versteeg and Saad will be taking turns "centering" the 2nd line.

[Old Style]

That deflection off Oduya hurts. Not much Crow could do with that one.
