I might cancel ESPN and buy the AHL instead...

I think Luke will be gone by end of 2024.

By the end?

We are horrid

I think Luke will be gone by end of 2024.

If they get blown out 3-4 times in a row to start the season, he’s going the way of Denis Savard. There’s no way management can let this happen for a full season.

Charlie Roumeliotis reporting from the United Center that Wyatt Kaiser is begging to do rehab in Rockford after watching this shit.

 

[Geoist]

wtf with that icing play.

Ya know I'm just gonna say it....I don't see "generational" when i watch Bedard play. Idc how early it is in his career, i think that's a level you know when you see it. Now this doesn't mean he isn't still an amazing player, a legit young stud 1C who we can build around, someone who should be an All-star as long as he's healthy, etc. But when you watch young Mario/Crosby/McDavid etc. you just see something different. A certain level of explosiveness and ability that i just don't see in Bedard. Thats just my opinion.

I for some reason think this to myself pretty often as well. Maybe it's because we watched Kane and Toews in their younger days. Anytime they had the puck on their stick I felt comfortable because it felt like they could make that impossible play.

With Bedard I just feel that hes gonna get the puck try and make some move and its gonna go off the defenders stick/skate and into the corner or boards etc. You're right about him being a bonafide 1C, just dont know about the generational aspect to it yet. His surrounding cast has also been dysmal. Just so hard to tell. The hype was also insane, have to give him a break for being so young still.

Heh. That’s a wrap for me.

 

[Larmer83]

Extra point incoming.

 

[hawksfan50]

6-1 as Murphy late on back door check...

Bad game for a lot of Hawks..

 

[Mrfenn92]

Give the dman your stick

 

[No Fun Shogun]

Maybe it’s a good thing that most can’t watch.

 

[hawksfan50]

Hawks cannotveven hold on to their sticks.

 

[deytookerjaabs]

7 goals for in 5 preseason games so far....ouch.

 

[scorehawks]

But pre-season doesn't count. BS. They should be ramping up this game. I thought they might get 20 wins last year. Honestly, this team as built lucky to get that.

My thoughts regarding the “it’s just preseason” folk

 

[nmgrbhfn]

The Hawks were last in GF at 179 last season. On paper you would think they could pick up maybe 50 GF at least over last year. I'm not feeling it though. Even with 50 more GF they would still be terrible.

 

[WarriorofTime]

Fire up the draft prospect tape (YouTube vids) everyone.

 

[hawksfan50]

And Bedard's Generational shot ..
Fails again..

 

[hawksfan50]

Yup..let's win the lotto...Take Hagens . Another shrimp whose game would fizzllexwith us..

What a stupid thing to say. (The quote)

The only players that are going all out in pre season are players with non guaranteed contracts and rookies trying to make the team.

Is this Mario's 1st year covering hockey?

Does he not know that most players are giving half an effort and trying to not get hurt?

If "on paper" you're referring to the kind used to potty train puppies, sure.
