  1. This obviously doesn't account for his base stealing, but his BABIP is 34 points lower than it's ever been in a single season before. He had a .351 BABIP during his first four years and it's .295 this year. Only a 2% drop in his LD% this year from his career according to B-R but FanGraphs shows it as down nearly 6% from his career average. which is more reliable? fangraphs has his LD% as his 13.2, which is pretty bad and way lower than anything he's put up. it also has his GB% all the way to 57.4. his previous season high was 45.8 in 2008 and is at 42.9 for his career. his k percentage is also down though. looks like he's putting the ball in play a lot but is hitting it pretty weakly as a result of that, which would help explain the poor babip.
  2. Been doing that for a couple of years now... Oh, you mean Prior Classy. You can't hate me that much if you refuse to ignore me. dont think he was talking about you
  3. really can't understate what niemi did for the team in the first period. the sharks came out on fire with legitmate scoring chances through most of the 1st, but niemi stood on his head. this allowed the hawks to get the soft goal and completely turn the game. the sharks could have easily had a 2-0 lea dor something like that in the first 10 minutes, which obviously would have completely changed the way the game unfolded. niemi did this a couple times in the vancouver series too.
  4. and he looks like jesse pinkman
  5. See I don't mind losing game 5, so we can clinch the series at Wrigley Field in front of our fans. exactly. i'm ashamed to admit that i didn't care if they lost game 5 before it started. whoops.
  6. IDK what you are talking about, but Melrose has been on the Hawks bandwagon since Toews/Kane era began. In fact the Hawks are his favorite to win the Stanley Cup. Not to mention he's in love with the Hawks jersey. yeah, he loves the hawks. He said Kaner isn't as good as either of the Sedin twins well, he's definitely not. in the regular season, at least.
  7. i don't think we should even be discussing where the series might end. way too early for that.
  8. IDK what you are talking about, but Melrose has been on the Hawks bandwagon since Toews/Kane era began. In fact the Hawks are his favorite to win the Stanley Cup. Not to mention he's in love with the Hawks jersey. Yeah I swear in every analysis of the Blackhawks he throws in "and they have the best jersey in sports." i've only heard him say it about the hawks Fixed your post was actually fine, i just misread it i'm jacked up
  9. i'm not in chicago,but i'd think he has to be seriously heating up. if they make it to the finals, the bandwagon will be out in full force. im near tampa and during the lightning's 2004 run, the bandwagon didn't REALLY heat up until the finals. then of course there were thousands of bandwagoners watching game 7 outside of the stadium and pretending that they actually cared

  12. really? during the season he was raving about the hawks every time he talked about them. what did he say?
  13. for the first time since the 97-98 bulls, i actually feel like my team is going to win a championship. with the bears in 07 and cubs in 03 i thought they had as good a chance as anybody, but i didn't actually think "man, id really be surprised if they didn't win the title".
  14. is it too late to delete every post i made to kyle during the regular season
  15. no chances. crazier things have happened
  16. thornton is such a [expletive]. love those little punches he's throwing. what a vagggg
  17. who was that that kane just out muscled?
  18. kane draws the penalty!!! THATS what kane needs to do
  19. yikes this is going to be a terrifying 4 minutes. ugh.
  20. we absolutely own the 3rd period so far this postseason. amazing
  21. The Puck Daddy blog has Toews 2nd right now behind Cammalleri with Pavelski and Halak right behind him halak has played himself out of that talk in these first 2 games of the ECF, imo For sure, IIRC Halak was like 2nd or 3rd before game 1. Those projections were posted just after the game 1's there's talk he might not even start game 3
  22. looked like it caught him on the heel. the little split second it took to control it let nabakov get over
