How long is the Comcast-Chicago Sports Network lack of agreement going to go on for? I’m assuming when fans start missing Bulls games something will get done.

Comcast is only one entity of many that they don't have agreements with. Xfinity, You Tube TV, Hulu+, I've decided I'm just going to jail break a Fire Stick sign up for a VPN and see what the world has for me that way.

NHL scheduling is wild. Devils have played 7 games while the Lightning, Hurricanes and Capitals have played 3

Lightning Hurricanes had a game postponed because of a hurricane

Honestly, we baited the gods with that one.

I'm not sure, but it still feels like Comcast has most of the leverage right now.  At some point, I think CHSN has to cave to whatever proposal Comcast has on the table if they want to survive as a network.

I’m assuming they must be asking for more than CSN was asking for?

In addition to the hurricane cancellation the devils played 2 in Europe while everyone else was still playing preseason games. It’s not that wild.

I have tried my best to like Seth Jones and not hold his contract against him but I'm over it.

blackhawks activate levshunov and assign to Rockford. The ice hogs are 1-2 in early action.

Probably their worst game of the season so far last night.  Dominated in every facet and Bedard was effectively invisible.

he had some good chances. the goals are going to come in bunches soon for him

Richardson has got to get Foligno off of Bedard's line.

A win at altitude is impressive 

[jersey cubs fan]

The blackhawks have a chance to pull off a winning California trip despite blowing a game vs the only NHL team worse than them on Halloween. They play their 3rd game in 4 days tonight in Anaheim, which hasn’t played since coming off an east coast trip that ended on Halloween. The Ducks are quite meh. I saw them live last Sunday and they did nothing well. It’s the type of game the hawks can win despite themselves.

That power play was amazing for 20+ seconds and finally buried one 

[Tank]

Rumors have Davidson looking for center help.

Blackhawks win tonight in OT.  I didn't see much of the game because I don't have CHSN but looks like they were outplayed, but I'll take any wins we can get.   Edit: Also apparently this is the first time the Hawks have beaten the Wild in almost 5 years - 12/15/19 was the last win.

Anyways, I was wondering what people have thought about Bedard so far this year.  Again I don't have CHSN so I havent watched much but his advanced stats look pretty middling overall.  I always have to remind myself that we're talking about the progress and performance of a 19 year old kid so middling is actually not that bad, especially as his offensive rating is actally in the 80 percentile despite only having 3 goals so far this year.  His defense is atrocious though.  

Those that watch closer, is Bedard where we expected him to be at this far into his career?  Do you still project him to end up in that uber elite tier of players (lets say top 10 skaters in the league)?

I’m not unconcerned 

[17 Seconds]

Let's not let Caleb's sucking bleed into our feelings for Bedard

I'm still confident he's going to be at least a 90 point guy, probably a 100 point guy. he might take a little while to get there like someone like mackinnon, though

Athanasiou reportedly places on waivers, which would open up an NHL roster spot for somebody

He cleared waivers and is headed to Rockford. 
 

 

the athletic ran a “what will the 25/26 roster look like” article and long story short, they project a lot of returning and/or promoted players already in the organization, plus one big external option.

Candidates to be that X mentioned above

I feel like every time I see Reichel's name he's either like, getting sent down to Rockford/healthy scratched or proclaimed as a future first liner of the next contending Hawks team. Is it still somehow both?
