Soronsen has to feel good about that
Considering Rockford collapse even if they are missing Nazar and Korch and Hawks looking better this guy might be a decent coach

The best part of the game wa the hawks owning possession in the Washington zone for over a minute so they couldn’t pull goalie. That’s was big boy hockey

Strome was a complete ghost in this game.
Musto in shambles.

Usually during a season like this if we win and get zero production from 98 and the kids in general it just kinda feels "meh" and I'm left wanting more. But this one feels different. That was great to see and its those kind of wins that as they add up over time(even during a season in which the wins are few and far between as a whole)they slowly start to build the right kind of culture looking at the big picture.

Korch had a phenomenal game. Might be playing his way into never driving northwest on 90 again

wtf - who iis this cupcake on the postgame? Is it one of those dudes from the Jaguar commercial?
If your Kaiser you better continue to show progress on the right side. I think these three on the left side could be here for awhile
Allan has played his off side a lot over the years. I understand them not wanting to do that at the nhl level with him as a rookie but it’s absolutely an option long term. If there’s 4 lefties that merit sticking around they’ll make room

Boston at -19 has 35 points in 32 games, Chicago at -20 has 24 points in 32 games. I thought that was vaguely interesting.

We tanked hard and got Bedard!! Happy Days!!
Once they trade for Mitchell it's GAME OVER. Dynasty.
The perfect tank.
Well was, because I think Sorensen and this team is different.
Bedard 40% on draws...justx2 shotscon goal...no points
Nazar loast all 7 draws he took...no points just 1shot on goal...!..butb hey '(looked " good..though no finishing by anyone on their shifts...so while you might admire flash we gotta see RESULTS!
Do nitvtelk me they looked good...Tell me they produced.
Odd stats...every Hawks dman finished at Even in thev+/- EXXCEPT Nolan Allan who was +2..
Hawks pk as usual was terrific.
The 3rd line of Mikeyev Dickinson and Tt was the best line ...TT 3a and+3...Mikheyev 1g 2a and +2 and Dickinson +1...
But remember TT setup Mikheyev for tgat shorty goal....Dickinson not onthe ice.
Hawks have horrible faceoff problem...
Bedard at 40% was actually better than his usual numbers on draws...but Nazar losing all 7 of his draws is pointing to a big problem for these 2 yutes if theyc antvto be top 2 line centers.
In this game both DonatovandxDicjibson also not goodon draws.
That Hawks domibated possession time in o-zone despite losing so many draws is commendable..BUT we all know you need to start with the puck possession on draws to have a good offebse in the majority of the games ...
So my question is :
ARE Bedard and Bazar our top 2 libe C solutions?
Can you play y small centers who do not gain possession ondraws?
Sure..if they drive play .and produce goals either for themselves or for their wingers you might overlook bad draw results...but ifxalm tgeycdoi is flash without scoring results except for the occasional score and few multi-point games then I think you cannot rely on then as driving the top 2 lines and especially 5x5.
I still think Hawks need to find at least 1 if not 2 top line cebters win draws,drive lines and produce goals for not only themselves but for their wingers..
In this game Hawks PP looked great 1 PO but did notcscore...looked average 1PP but did not score.. looked terrible on other PP...so need to be sharper and finish.
Watching other NHL teams score last night from tge highlights...how iscitctgat itgercteans have guy who score with open (not checjed) shot goals?
Why do the Hawks not get these enough from their forwards?
It's a mystery...
Hawks get very little 2 on1 rushes and do notvfi bush much if they get some...
Hawks cebterscdo not drivet he middle then dish forbipen shotsvlike I see goals scored by other teams..
With other teanscyouvsee drip passesvofctgecrusj and shotscongoal resulting.. not from the Hawks..
Often itbis Bedardcgoibgv1von4 when hevdrovescthevnidfle...Tgese up the midfkecrushes from him often fail and go 1and done.
Tgeirvifvcourse is more room on pps so you can get more flash and pretty passing.. so BedardxandcNazarxcan "look goof" creating..butcsobehoe ...too often...nothing resukts..do notcsee many tic tac toew goals from Hawkscon pp..Or hardly any successful 1 timers..
Nazar gotcsetvuobforca 1ctinercand whiffed cause Bedardcsent homa bouncy pass.
Do you get credit for a faikedcpas as "looking good or looking dangerous"?
Sorry for the criticism butvif theycare going to merely look threatening and notcactualky finish..what goodviscthat?
"Nearly " gets too much credit...Only Finlishibh matters...dominating chancesxanf o-zone tone makes games more watchable.. But unless these flashing moments resukt in goals ,it means you still have not found solutions.
