Yeah but can that line handle other 1st lines around the NHL? I don't think so.My issue with Mikeyev in that spot is his lack of offensive instincts hurting that line more than Bertuzzi's skating does when he's in that spot. Bertuzzi also goes to the front of the net more often and is better there.
Or if he’s in a slump, he won’t be completely useless.Good to see Nazar seems like a guy who can play in a depth role if he’s never a big scorer.
Neither configuration should play against the other teams best lines if the Hawks can help it, unless Mikheyev is going to do his Hossa impressions much more often.Yeah but can that line handle other 1st lines around the NHL? I don't think so.
It's a line that will have its moments but is bound to be big time in the negative of the +/- stat.
Just tuning in now. Looks like a pretty decent performance so far?
Second year on his deal is just brutalBrodie is probably our 8th best defender at this point time to go bud.
It looks like the 98-91 combo is very good part time depending on the situation.Neither configuration should play against the other teams best lines if the Hawks can help it, unless Mikheyev is going to do his Hossa impressions much more often.
That shift Martinez gave the puck away immediately. It’s usually the defense being plugs causing this because they can’t move the puck.Too often Bedard's line starts with an o-zone draw and within 10 seconds theyre already defending their life away.
