  1. Orders for Sopel jerseys just went up among angry die-hards
  2. Hartnell has been very good
  3. Crap how did we mess that up?!?
  4. This one's shaping up badly. It's been 2 periods since I felt like we've played well.
  5. I don't understand why I hear people say Philly can't skate with us. They look like they are skating just fine to me.
  6. Turnovers in our zone are beginning to concern me
  7. That's the weirdest god bless America I've ever seen
  8. I'm flirting with not only a Cub rain delay, but also a Hawks rain delay :(
  9. Because the NHL game is on Versus, they might not be record setting lows. Ahh, yes. You are correct sir.
  10. I'll be on a plane for game 6, out of the country for game 7.
  11. Let's just hope Rocky doesn't have a mid life crisis or something and decide his Dad had some good ideas.
  12. I'm having trouble seeing Hendry give Lou the early send off. I hate the idea of a guy drifting to retirement like this though. Can't we just have Lou become the "manager" -- in name only -- and have Trammel secretly run the team? Let's get creative here. :-))
  13. Is there any indication that Hendry is working on trades? I don't know, but it kind of sounds like we're doing nothing, at least for now.
  14. Yeah, that one raised my eyebrow a bit. Even the angry fans who want everyone to believe they know something secret that nobody else does -- I can't believe they're going for Sopel jerseys.
  15. I did grow up a hockey fan. My Dad took me to Hawks games at least once a season. I lost interest during Bill's bad years. I'm a big bandwagoner now. I even bought the Kane jersey over the Toews jersey :)
  16. OK folks, Hawks will definitely lose tonight.
  17. I'd love to check the TV ratings on this baby in the Chicago area. Might set records.......
  18. Oh, if only. I would love it if they fired Lou, let Trammel finish the year and then signed him up for at least one full year with Sandberg as the bench coach. I've resigned myself to the inevitability of Sandberg as manager at some point, so at least with that outcome he spends some time with the big league club under someone else as opposed to jumping right in. That's been my hope, and given Ryno's good soldier status maybe he'd go along with it. But then would Trammel? Would he take a gig where he's essentially a lame duck already just keeping the spot warm for the chosen one? Possibly, if it was done with some kind of understanding that Trammel wouldn't be fired since it was just a one year gig. I've been asking for interim Trammel for weeks now. But I'm resigned to the idea that we will be subjected to Lou for the duration.
  19. So close. So friggin' close....
  20. 2-1 series. Honestly, I'm really interested to see how much more onesided they can get away with. So who determines the ref crews for these games? Why does McCreary always wind up reffing the games? He's one of the most senior referees in the league. They will be alternating the two-man crews we've seen so far for the rest of the series. McCreary gets games 1 3 5 and 7, I think. OK. So the NHL just says "you've been around the longest" and gives him the job? He doesn't seem like a very good ref to me, regardless of his seniority.
  21. 2-1 series. Honestly, I'm really interested to see how much more onesided they can get away with. So who determines the ref crews for these games? Why does McCreary always wind up reffing the games?
  22. This really is Dusty's lame duck year redux then. We're forced to watch essentially a ship without oars, drifting down the river. All year. Pretty helpless feeling
  23. Yea, I've got my annual trip planned for the Aug 6th series and will still go. Crap like this gives me pause though.
