2024-25 Roster…too soon?

[GIADF]

TT is probably the best 3rd wheel to try with Dickinson and Bedard. Even on his off wing he probably has the best combo of being defensively responsible and offensive potential.

We could try Bertuzzi for once. Him and Dickinson played together for Guelph

 

[Kevin Musto]

I’ll bet Bedard with Dickinson will work.

I think it could yeah.

But Donato or Teravainen should be on the wing, not Anderson

 

[Muffinalt]

I’ll bet Bedard with Dickinson will work.

Think so too. I actually thought about putting both Foligno and Dickinson, because they can actually hold possession, win battles and create space for Bedard.

I guess same logic with Anderson, but yeah Bertuzzi or Mikheyev makes much more sense. Even Smith.

We need more heavy skill guys for sure.

 

[Giovi]

I’ll bet Bedard with Dickinson will work.

I can see that working, Anderson makes no sense to me.

 

[x Tame Impala]

No one on the Hawks including Bedard is playing at a 60 point pace. This is crazy. Tuevo looked awesome to start the year what the hell happened to him, 8 points in 18 games? Bertuzzi with 6? Kurashev and Reichel probably have their career’s in the balance pretty quickly and can’t get on the scoreboard.

Some/a lot of this could be LuRich’s coaching but these guys are not living up to expectations. I expected Bedard to be closer to having 20-25 points after 18 games based on his hype but now he’s regressing. Our free agent acquisitions were supposed to alleviate the load for CB98 and haven’t done anything.

The coach took TT off of Bedards wing because of a couple of bad games. Bertuzzi still hasn't got a look with him outside of their pitiful preseason. It just doesn't make sense that you bring in these 2 guys and neither of them are consistently playing with Bedard.

 

[Crow]

I’ll bet Bedard with Dickinson will work.

With Anderson?

We could try Bertuzzi for once. Him and Dickinson played together for Guelph

No I’m sorry, we can’t.

 

[scorehawks]

Was at Van/Hawks game. 4 rows up from ice. Maroon, Anderson and Bertuzzi useless. They should not play every game.
Hall is another. Heard Hall go on about his healthy scratch coming out of the blue. Did he not hear his uninspired play talking?
3 of these guys wont' be back after this season.

 

[Hawkaholic]

If Hall has been dogging it (i havent seen the last 2 games) then I have no problem with Luke benching him without telling him. He isn't a kid that needs to be taught, he should know the standard, and be setting it. Hopefully it's a kick in the ass he needs.

 

[x Tame Impala]

Hall is a shell of his former self. I have no positive expectations for this guy whatsoever.

Bertuzzi and Teravainen however were committed to medium term and they must be better.

 

[statswatcher]

cutting bait and pushing bedard to wing makes the team's lack of centers really glaring.

 

[HawksDub89]

Man…consider this my first “wtf Luke” moment.

I’m cool with bedard playing wing (for now) and Dickinson at center (actually really like it) but Joey f***ing anderson?

What are we doing here? Lol

 

[WarriorofTime]

Anderson is grinder that does grinder stuff, been good with Dickinson in recent history, and guy that does good AHL-level scoring with opportunity (which he's never really had on Hawks). He's not going to flub stuff and suddenly make an otherwise 4/5 good NHL Unit look bad. A lot of misplaced anger there.

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

Anderson is an AHL talent that shouldn't be on NHL roster to begin with

Him on 1st line opposite Bedard is f***ing joke

 

[Kevin Musto]

Anderson is an AHL talent that shouldn't be on NHL roster to begin with

I actually don't agree with that.

He's a decent defensive 4th liner.
