  1. :twisted: :twisted: :banghead: :banghead: I don't think so! Is Lidstrom playing tonight?
  2. Another board I go to pointed out an interesting problem that could come up for the goalie at the NW end of the stadium. When the sun is shining off the ice, it appears the goalie and any player in that end would be blinded by the reflection: http://www.indianheadnation.com/download/file.php?id=68 Taken around 1:00pm. The current forecast is 20 degrees, overcast, snow showers which will be perfect if that holds up. Any of you ever played pond hockey in the sun? I haven't but I can imagine how terrible it would be.
  3. Last time the Wings and Hawks played I stated that I hadn't been this excited for a hockey game in a long time... well... I am more excited for this one.
  4. I know I'm late to the party and all... but that Tavares goal was awesome.
  5. You're telling me... this is an incredibly special team that could be poised for history... IF we sweep Detroit, the skys the limit!
  6. 1st: DUSTIN BYFUGLIEN 2nd: NIKLAS BACKSTROM 3rd: CRISTOBAL HUET Ok... how did Backstrom get second star? A) Huet's 1 GA was better than Backstrom's 1 goal. B) Toews and Steeger and even Wisniewski were better on the ice than Backstrom.
  7. Even with him out twice in a row is a little rough I know you guys will hate me and call me a conspiracy theorist for saying this... but... the Hawks WILL win the Winter Classic and I urge you to watch the calls for and against the Hawks. I think the Hawks are going to have the "Crosby Edge" in that game in order to further market a team that's been in the gutter for a long time.
  8. There aren't any Detroit fans til the 2nd round of the playoffs ;) Wait a minute...actually there is some truth to this...of course there was no thing as a Blackhawk fan until this year You see, this is just trolling. Blackhawks has always had fans, Bill Wirtz was the reason why most stopped following the Hawks. Just because Bill Wirtz basically killed hockey in Chicago from the early 90s to 2006, doesn't mean there weren't Hawks fans. Now Red Wings fans are like Braves fans. that has a lot more to do with the michigan economy being completely in the toilet than it does with red wings fans not giving a crap any more. I agree the economy has stunk in Michigan... but last year there were tons of empty seats for every game in the 1st round. I am pretty sure there are enough upper middle class people in "Hawkey Town" to buy tickets to a Wings playoff game.
  9. Countdown officially @ 3 days. Ice is good, weather looks good... looks like we're on our way! Now all we have to do is beat De-troit! And then beat them again and we are tied for the Central Division lead!
  10. Whats the league record? 17 by the 1992-1993 Penguins. Well lets keep our fingers crossed, but man thats a hell of a record for the NHL Hehe... don't count on it... our next 8: @ Detroit vs. Detroit vs. Flames @ Coyotes @ Avalanche @ Predators vs. Predators vs. Sabres IF we get past Detroit both times, I really only see the Flames/Predators (1/2)/Sabres in our way... but we can wish! EDIT: And let me emphasize... any of you that watched tonight's game, witnessed history. No other Hawk fan can say they watched this original 6 team win 9 straight. God damn it feels good to witness history and bring the sport back to Chicago!
  11. Whats the league record? 17 by the 1992-1993 Penguins.

  16. Welcome aboard! This team is one of the most entertaining I have ever seen (not BEST but most entertaining). If this team hits a streak like this come playoff time, the Finals are not out of the question AT ALL!

  20. The Hawks can do no wrong these days it seems...
  21. This is slightly more important. My wife appears to be pregnant for the first time. Then again, a Buff hatty would give him inside track on naming rights. Congratulations!
  22. You're gonna miss Buff's hatty then, Kyle.
  23. HAWKS GOAL 1 - 9:38 (PP) - Byfuglien scores (9), assisted by Keith (14) and Seabrook (7). Hawks lead 2-0.
