2013-14 Defending Champion Blackhawks Regular Season Thread

[Soul]

great now toews is hurt. [expletive] scum.

 

did he come back in?

 

yeah he did. took a two handed chop across the forearm and his left arm immediately dropped to his side, but he finished the game thankfully

 

I'll bet he has a nasty bruise on that forearm, though.

@MattSpiegel670: Coach Q just basically said Tuevo Teravainen is definitely coming to the Blackhawks, either late regular season or in the playoffs.

Raanta starting tomorrow for the Hawks in a pretty big game against Colorado. The Avs are 1 point behind the Hawks for home ice in the first round (if the Blues win the division)

Hmm. I'm not sure if I should be excited or not.

Isn't it guaranteed you'll be both at one point or another?

I'm not sure if they see this as a lineup upgrade or just a guy getting a few games of exposure to the NHL game.

I'm not sure they know either. I think they'll give him a chance and see how he performs, particularly if they have little or no chance of changing playoff seeding.

Q gets the benefit of the doubt, but i really don't understand choosing this game to finally play raanta again. this is a big game.

Agreed. Especially with 2 days off between games. Really weird time to start him.

[UMFan83]

They'll turn it on in the playoffs right?

They've outplayed and outshot Colorado every time I've seen them play. Varlamov has just been insanely lucky-hot against us. If that happens in the playoffs, nothing you can do but hate him forever. Screw you, Mike Smith.

[Guest]

[expletive] mike smith, we are going to light varlamov up in the playoffs. he's wasting all his good luck against the hawks in the regular season.

 

then again, varlamov is much better than mike smith.

[Guest]

welp, we drop to 3rd place but Q totally sent the message to the avalanche that we're too good to worry about beating them.

Hawks are 10-7-7 in 2014. They were 36-7-5 in 48 games last year.

Looks like Hossa is coming back this weekend.

I'm so stupid. I saw tweets about a happy Hossa being on the ice and didn't understand what the big deal was.

[UMFan83]

Well on our way to 15th loss in last 25 games. Team looks lifeless

The Hawks play the remnants of the Red Wings today. I like your chances to get 2 points.
