Game #69 – Coyotes vs. Hawks Spotlight: The Return Of Mjolnir

Sam Fels March 11, 2019 0

This won’t make for easy reading for Hawks fans. We aren’t here to tell you what you want to hear. We’ve made the case all season that if there were a “Rod Langway” Award, that is if the best defensive defenseman were given an award along with or in place of the Norris–where the d-man […]

Catherine Silverman covers the Yotes for The Athletic, as well as working as a goalie expert of In Goal Magazine. You can follow her on Twitter @CatMSilverman.  The Yotes have hung around the playoff picture, and yet they don’t have anyone who has scored over 42 points. Is this all or mostly Darcy Kuemper‘s resurgence? […]

Our Real Halfway Awards

Sam Fels January 10, 2019 0

Time to check in on what the NHL individual awards should be. If you’re new, first of all what are you doing here this place is nuts!, and second every so often I like to look at what the NHL awards should be if voters actually paid attention to what matters. There isn’t as much […]

It’s Not a Cage if You’re Feeling Like a Resident – Hawks 1, Coyotes 4

Rose Rankin October 18, 2018 0

You don’t need me to tell you what was important about tonight—but I will anyway, it was Corey Crawford coming back. And despite what the score was, he looked just fine. It was the usual suspects being the pieces of crap that they are that led to the loss, but you don’t need me to […]

You Share The Same Fate As The People You Hate – ’18-’19 Team Previews: Unpainted Huffhines

Sam Fels September 21, 2018 0

Oh right, the Arizona Coyotes. That’s how I feel every time I hear their name. Like that cousin you’ve met once. You never think about them, and quite often you forget they exist. And then you’re reminded that yes, they are in some small way part of your life and there are distant memories of […]

Well Pilgrim, Not Until You Eat The Peanuts Outta My… – FFUD’s ’17-’18 Player Reviews – Connor Murphy Or: How I Learned To Stop Worrying And Love Our Large Irish Son

John Pullega April 20, 2018 0

When the Hawks brought Connor Murphy in, he was the presumptive favorite to replace the puck-pocked husk of what was once Niklas Hjalmarsson. And as the season went on, and the Hawks found their heads deeper and deeper in the toilet, the narrative began to range from “the Hawks will need a Top 4 defenseman […]

Sam Fels February 12, 2018 0

If you’re one of those freaks like us that hopes one day hockey management might be moved out of the caves and stop being afraid of the sun, there’s a part of you that wants the John Chayka’s of the world to succeed. Someone is going to have to be first through the wall. It’s […]

Game #56 – Hawks vs. Coyotes Douchebag Du Jour: The Memory Of Hammer

Sam Fels February 12, 2018 0

Oh calm down. We’d never turn against our favorite Tre Kronor regular. Niklas Hjalmarsson was a great Hawk, a major part of three Cups, and certainly should be remembered well in these parts. But it’s that last component that’s getting really annoying. Especially considering some of the other complains about this current Hawks team. You […]
