It's time to end the Buff as a defenseman experiment.

Buff's been terrible.  Lots of bad passes and turnovers, and pretty much no hitting.  Q actually put him back on a forward line towards the end of the game.

One thing that surprised me about the Preds (and appeared to surprise the Hawks) was that they did not lay back in their 2-3 trap in the third period and protect the lead.  Nashville stayed on the offensive, forechecked like bastard and it caught the Hawks completely off guard.  Quenneville's going to need to make an adjustment.

Anyway, the Hawks can easily tie this thing up Thursday and take back home ice.  Shouldn't be a tall order, but if they give anything resembling last night's effort, they're in trouble.  I fully expect to see Burish in the lineup for game 4.

Hockee novice question: is Quenneville considered an above average coach?

I vaguely recall there being an issue with Quenneville and early playoff flameouts when he was hired. Just checking if there's any validity to the inevitable criticism that'll be coming his way if these guys shart themselves.

The criticism of the line juggling is valid. He's obviously an above average coach as his record suggests. If the Hawks lose this series, I wouldn't be surprised if the call is made.

I'm pretty sure that Q is also the only coach in NHL history who has 500 regular season victories but hasn't reached the Stanley Cup Finals.  If the Hawks suffer an early exit this year, Quenneville's going to be seeing a lot of comparisons to Doug Collins.

The Hawks need a Rudy Jaramillo-type assistant coach game changer.

The Hawks need to fire Gerald Perry.

They need to trade for Michael Barrett then have Pat Kane beat the shit out of him.

And then move Kane to the bullpen?

Well played.

Sounds like Bickell and Burish will be in the lineup tomorrow, with Fraser and Eager hitting the bench.

Love Bicks, glad he's playing. The Brouwer hate is strong from Coach Q. Would love to know where it's coming from - though he has been rather sloppy defensively and non-existent offensively. I hope it doesn't have anything to do with his dad.

The offense part probably has more to do with playing on the 3rd and 4th lines since he came back.

Issues with clearing the puck perhaps.

Campbell is a game-time decision but frankly, he'd have to get pushed in front of a bus not to play tonight.

Man I hope this move isn't "put-your-ace-starter-into-a-setup-role" desperation. 

I will be wincing every time Phantom #51 goes to the boards.
I think he's more of the appendix of Desipio.  Yeah, it's here and you're vaguely aware of it, but only if reminded.  The only time anyone notices it is when it ruptures (on Weebs in the video game thread).  Beyond that, though, it's basically useless and offers no redeeming value.

But what if it's a one goal game late, think of the influence he will have.

I'd seen it said that they were planning on a Game 5 return. I don't know how legit that is but, if true, that would mean they've only moved the timetable up two days.

But, yeah... I'll be holding my breath, too.

That among other things I'll be doing during the game including but not limited to:

drinking
hurling insults at my inanimate television
scaring my wife and dog
clenching teeth, fists and anus
sweating
possibly pacing if there's OT involved
