Outworked and outshot first 2 periods, 3rd perood was better but this roster just doesn't have it.
We just cough up the puck way too many times. Soda is looking like a good trade chip. I am keeping the tank alive!!!

This team is garbage because we have garbage management and ownership, Stan the Man era never ended, enjoy another 5 years of failure until they finally realize what’s happening, this is why they should have went in a completely new direction once Stan the Man was gone but instead they hire his pathetic clueless student.

You guys are really reaching on the Seth hatred. He gives it to Bedard they immediately challenge him because he's the one guy you can't give space and he gives it back to Seth.
There is this really cool but complicated play that I used to teach to Mites. It's called make a pass, move your feet and get a pass.

Now, let's all try it together. Jones to Bedard, Jones moves to a better position, Bedard passes it back to Jones.

This team is reflective of their coaching. D U M B

This is just a bad take man

KD was part of the opposite camp from Bowman/Kelly/MacIsaac

TBH, I can't disagree. KD has not been very impressive but the verdict is still out to some degree - at least he is sticking to the rebuild plan.

As you say, the give-and-go is a play NO PRO hockey player needs to be taught. Luke isn't on the ice making the dumb decisions. Luke doesn't tell the players not to execute. It is too dam easy to blame the coach for having a shitty team to work with. We've seen the current team work hard at times and play competitive hockey it just happens too infrequently of late. Of course it doesn't help when they lose 70 percent of the draws and ops team is a SC contender.

Most realistic people are expecting ~5more years of being bad.

Hawks aren't anywhere near Stars class....I wouldn't waste the mighty pen on comments....they should've done more against the Wings----that's the one stuck in my craw

Your statements are getting really old and predictable. For the sake of your health quit following this team. Go outside or something and find a new hobby.

Something’s gone very wrong if 5 years after this year the Hawks can’t get into the playoffs. I would say 3 years after this year the Hawks should be solidly in the mix for the playoffs.

I mean, in the mix for the playoffs doesn't make you a good team, imo. A better team, yes, but not a good team. I'm not saying we are going to be bottom 5 -10 bad for 5 more years, but 4 or 5 years from now, they will probably be a fringe playoff team at best, which maybe isn't a bad team per se, but it's not a good team either.

But shouldn't the vaunted analytics staff ...it isa big investment for the Hawks...and a large staff of Originally 12 persons,maybe diwn 1or2 by now,have advised KD on actual player acquisitions that dominate analytics and yet also produce offense while styling goals against?

It would seem the vets we brought in just cannot produce enough nor dominate thecanayltics..

Why do we have a highly paid dept.of analytics and strategy if they are producing garbage bottom feeder resukts?
