Luis Robert and The Importance of Impatience

Adam Hess April 16, 2019 0

There have been so few things to get truly excited about with the White Sox so far this season that trying to figure out which one of them is the most exciting is kind of like a weird version of a positive Sophie’s Choice. In order to identify or work yourself up about any one […]

Game #80 – Blues 3, Hawks 3 (Hawks Win Hackey-Sack) – It’s Still Real To Me, Dammit

Adam Hess April 3, 2019 0

Box Score Natural Stat Trick Now that the Hawks games mean nothing, it’s hard to imagine getting worked up about these games in any way, and yet seeing them play their asses off and outplaying the Blues, I found myself sitting on my couch feeling like this guy. As a wrestling fan myself, I can […]

Game #73 – Flyers 3, Hawks 1 – Not Everybody Leaves Well Enough Alone

Adam Hess March 21, 2019 0

Box Score Natural Stat Trick Sometimes there is just very little you can say about a hockey game to accurately describe what occurred, and tonight is one of those nights. I don’t wanna waste what I do have on the intro so let’s dive in to the bullets: – The first period was something of […]

Game #72 – Canucks 2, Hawks 2 (Canucks win tic-tac-toe) – Something Wagered, Nothing Gained

Adam Hess March 18, 2019 0

It could’ve be more fitting of a situation than for the Blackhawks to play well against a few decent/good teams (or at least teams in playoff spots in the West) when I don’t have to pay a huge load of attention, only to then take a dump all over all 200 feet of ice when […]

Atop The Sugar Pile: Don’t Tease Me Unless You’re Gonna Please Me

Adam Hess February 26, 2019 0

I was very resistant to any idea that the Blackhawks were “back” as they were embarking on the win streak a few weeks ago. But as they got within touching distance of a playoff spot (through no major accomplishment of their own, mind you), I started to come around on the idea of playoff hockey […]

Game #60 – Senators 7, Hawks 8 – Stockholm Syndrome

Box Score Natural Stat Trick Corsica was broken tonight, probably by this game The Hawks schedule in February was always favorable because while they are certainly not a good hockey team, they aren’t really close talent-wise to being one of the worst in the NHL. When you have Patrick Kane and Jonathan Toews and Alex […]

Game #55 – Canucks 3, Hawks 3 (Hawks Win Foursquare) – Powers That Be

Adam Hess February 7, 2019 0

Box Score Natural Stat Trick Corisca I don’t even know what’s up with this team right now. They were playing very interesting games while looking very bad earlier this year. Then immediately before and after the All-Star Break/Bye Week they were winning games that were absolutely brutally boring. And then tonight they play like shit […]

Game #52 – Blackhawks 7, Sabres 3 – I’m Not Sure What It Was, But It Happened

Adam Hess February 1, 2019 0

Box Score Natural Stat Trick Corsica This was a bizarre game and I am still not sure I fully understand what happened. Let’s attempt to parse through it together, shall we? The Bullets: – The first period started out making this one feel like it was set to be a big time ass whipping by […]
