The Truth, That You Can Handle And Are Entitled To

Sam Fels December 4, 2018 0

Sorry, A Few Good Men was on when I got home last night. To preserve any kind of sanity about the state of the Hawks, I work under the theory that behind closed doors, Stan Bowman told John McDonough and Rocky Wirtz that basically this season was going to be a toss, but they wouldn’t tell

My Realization, Q’s Realization, And All Seven And We’ll Watch Them Fall

Sam Fels September 24, 2018 0

Halfway through the preseason, and it’s taken me that and months–perhaps even a year or more–to realize what bothers me so much about whatever “the plan,” the Hawks have here. What can I say? I’m a slow learner, runner, and just about everything else. Perhaps it’s the surprise at just how little buzz I or […]

Preseason #2 Nothing to See Here — Hawks 2, Red Wings 4

Rose Rankin September 20, 2018 0

There really wasn’t much of note but we should get used to that, right? Tonight’s cast was two lines and a bunch of no-names (or laughable names, in some cases). Let’s do this: Box Score –The second line of Saad-Schmaltz-Kane looked pretty dreamy. They scored the first goal but prior to that had decent chances […]

That’s One Way

As with everything, how you judge last night’s first round is whether or not you take the Blackhawks at their word. And that’s not really something we do around here. As Fifth Feather pointed out on Twitter, the Hawks for the past two years have come out and said their performance is unacceptable and that […]

Burn The Pages of Unwritten Memoirs – Draft Preview: Adam Boqvist

Adam Hess June 21, 2018 0

As Sam said yesterday about Ty Smith, and because this is the direction the game and league is really headed with the position, you could probably just copy and paste Quinn Hughes draft preview (or Smith’s from yesterday) to get this preview of Adam Boqvist out of Sweden done.
