2009-2010 Blackhawks Lord Stanley Bonertime Thread

So every meathead in Chicago will be calling for Huet's head today, but no goalie in the world can stop pucks when the Wings continuously put asses in his face.

This one's on the Hawks' inability to score on a 5-on-3, and their inability to get opposing players out of the crease.

I agree.  Does this bring us back to CT's call for a big, bad-ass defenceman?

Simon Danis-Pepin is a fucking behemoth playing in Rockford, but currently lacks the skill to play at the NHL level.

Does it matter?  At this point it's pretty obvious that Q's PP strategy doesn't include clearing the crease.  The Hawks let Holmstrom sit there completely unmolested the entire time.  They did this all last year too, so if the coach's haven't corrected this by now, then I can only assume it's by design.

just means they still can't beat Detroit. If someone knocks off Detroit in the playoffs, the Hawks should be golden.

Fuck that.  The Blackhawks are better than Detroit.  Add Bolland and Hossa, and the Hawks win 6-3 last night.  Shit, without them, The Hawks should have won going away if Sharp could have figured out where the net was and Osgood wasn't standing on his head in the first.

In conclusion, fuck Detroit.

The Hawks couldn't convert a 5-on-3 against a team with a shitty kill.

Fuck hypotheticals, they just don't match up well.

Except they must have had about 5 shots and probably 3 great chances.  If they do that again, they score 8 out of 10 times.  The Hawks dominated that 5 on 3, only bad luck and Osgood's head-standing kept them out of the net.

Fuck Detroit.

They had 1 shot on that power play.  And the problem on the 5 on 3 was stupidity.  The up man for the Red Wings must have blocked 6 or 7 shots from the point, because Seabrook and Barker were so close together that the guy never had to move.  Ed O'Bradovich would not have been pleased with that SPACING.

And Detroit showed me nothing last night.  They're still good, but they certainly didn't outplay the Hawks.  Their first goal came on a fluke play, and the 2nd goal came when Barker whiffed on a clearing attempt and Huet couldn't stop the shot.  The Wings have replaced guys like Hossa and Hudler with Todd Bertuzzi and Brad May.  That's going to start to show.

Fair enough.  It just seemed liek there were a bunch of shots, they were just getting blocked.

Fuck Detroit.

Shots that get blocked on a 5-on-3 are not much of a positive for the team with the 2-man advantage.

Tweak'd.

[Kermit, B.]

The Wings were playing for the spirit of the impoverished people of Detroit.  The Hawks had no chance.
