GDT: 1/13/25 Flames @ Hawks 6:40 CHSN

[Crow]

It’s like 12 degrees outside. No one is out anywhere I went except problem drinkers like me

 

[Crow]

I haven’t been to a game this year, usually I have by now but I typically avoid the dead of winter games like this one. Getting out of the UC always involves some walking it seems and that place is so wide open and windy it just sucks. I can only afford a few games a year so I’d rather go when it’s at least sort of decent out. I can’t be the only one.

 

[clydesdale line]

Other than witnessing Bedard's 100th point, I feel bad for the fans who paid to see this one.

 

[CanadianHawks]

Looking forward to deadline

Bedard at the draft podium when he welcomes Hagens

 

[GIADF]

Hawks schedule is pretty brutal up until the 4 Nations thing. Nashville Thursday who have been playing a little better, but after that….

Vegas
Carolina
Tampa
Minnesota
Tampa
Carolina
Florida
Edmonton
Nashville
STL

And then the break.

If they don’t beat Nashville Thursday this could end up being a huge losing streak.

 

[TLEH]

Team was playing better without Jones. Bite the bullet and get him the f*** out of here.

Well, when he's a -3 every other game, mostly by his own fault, that will happen.

 

[TLEH]

Bowman did a lot of damage on the way out, Seabrook deal, Panarin trade.. but woof delaying a rebuild and this Jones trade are right f***ing there.

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

Crevier played well

We may have something here with him as he looks far better this year compared to his play last season

When you have $9.5 million smakeroos coning into your bank account why bother to "check in"...you are already legendary and should easily make the NHL Hakl of Fame as the
worst #1D ofcall time..money and fame ..even if its bad fame ..at least you get remembered as the Incomptence Master..

But his accomplishments have served the Hawks well...got them Bedard...now will get them at minimum 3rd overall but maybe 1st or 2nd after helping to get them 2nd overall last draft.. and likely a top 3 next sesson under $9.5 's illustrious zoom and of the Tank.

Sich a contribution is almost unheard of.. so definitely goes to Hall of Fame in the "buildrr" category.!

We can laugh..we can cry
.bit tge $9.6:saga is already Legendary..with 5 more seasons after this onec et to cone.and more top 3 picks to add to the pipeline.. Whetstone off tge nook,THEN all he helped the team acquire will be Good...finally...I guess we should thank him for his "building" that futurexall-star corps..bit I might be dead by then and tge Wirtz owners going to take a bath on the Hawks with nobody buying g tickets as $9.5 piles on horror after horror with not much to mitgatechis vast co yribution to guaranteed looses..

 

[Hattrick Kane]

Way to go vets, a year and half and you’ve completely broken him.

 

[BobbyJet]

I hear attendance is down but how long will it take before fans en large boycott paying hundreds of dollars to watch this......

Oh come on.

Probably about 10 years maybe more. How long has it been in buffalo?

 

[Putt Pirate]

Stan left the cupboards beyond bare with his own selfishness to try and keep his job. KD is trying to get us out of that and it is going to be painful for a couple more years but think.

 

[WarriorofTime]

It's been a rough go for Seth Jones.

 

[Larmer83]

Sadly, this is the real Hawks without Vezina-like goaltending.

So sluggish, so may mistakes, so little physicality, such poor board play, such poor structure... and most of all... no player wants to "OWN" the puck with intensity and grit. The team has no character.

Can't forecheck. Can't backcheck. Nothing close to a speed game.

 

[WarriorofTime]

Yes hit the wallet.

Not too surprising. Dog days of the season, Monday night, super cold, not interesting opponent. All the ingredients for a low attendance.

 

[CanadianHawks]

Hard to envision a scenario we don’t finish last

Almost certain we get a top 3 pick, most likely top 2

 

[Paul Allen]

Not too surprising. Dog days of the season, Monday night, super cold, not interesting opponent. All the ingredients for a low attendance.

Early game too. They had a lot of 7pm home starts one season (maybe 8 years ago) and got a lot of complaints about it.

Ben Pope tweeted"How can there still be more than 3 months left in the season?"

The good news Ben is there are ONLY 38 more games to Tank...err, play this season for the Hawks...
That plus 5 more full sesdobs with Seth Jones :leadibg" the d'corps..

Either you will die first before the horror show end ..or you will go insane and be put into a lunatic asylum.
The only way you will fond respite from this agony of watching incompetence game after game after game.

I sympathize with youBen...hard to beca beat journalist covering this wretched crew of Blackhawks ...but man,it is harder to take as a fan of the Indian head

You do not have much to look forward to except scanning the KHL scores to see how Kantserov is doing and that itvis PNLY 1 more seaso toll hos ETA...or to look forward to guaranteed 3 or 4 more top 3 draft picks thatc$9.5willbe guarateribgvwecget before all da yutes assemble ready to actualky contribute to positive turnaround and morexwonscthanlosses ....so realkybonlyv4 more seasons with Seth doomingvsiccrss...He will be bought out in his fibal season of his contract(heviscof course untradeable) ,having helped us get Brdardand Levshunov and maybe Schaefer or Misa ,and another top 3 pick i 25/26 season and maybe1 more top 3 pick in26/27 .and 27/38..in 28/29 he willbe limitedcto bench duty as thev7th d..and we buy out his final season ofc29/30 ..

So look forward ardHawks upswing by 28/29 season when $9,5 is justv7th dman riding the lines as an expensive injury back-up
.thatvisxwhen it will all change forvthe Blackhawks.

Meanwhile no infusion of yutes will overcome the shadow of doom cast by Tank Co.mandrr Jones...of sich legendary Negativevi mpact.

If we finish dead last, we'd most likely pick 3rd. A 55.7% chance to be precise.

But I'd happily take Misa at 3rd overall.

wait why would we have a better chance at 3rd than 1st if we're dead last?

 

[CallMeShaft]

wait why would we have a better chance at 3rd than 1st if we're dead last?

Because that's how the league designed it.
