Maybe quick is a better description since Kampf is a defensive specialist. He's a better skater than most of Hawks bottom 6 and gets to the puck faster than most. I hated the fact that he couldn't bury the puck but who in Hawks' current bottom 6 can? ..... and only a few can PK and none are good on the draw. All I'm saying is Hawks 3rd and 4th lines are below par.
Our bottom 6 is a mish mash of players who have barely played with each other and has a coach who continuously changes them. They need extended time together before I rag on them. Our top 6 needs to be better, more worried about that part of our team, atm.
I wasn't even talking about the team, learn to read. I was talking about individual players. I haven't ragged on our bottom 6 players yet because they haven't played together and need time with each other before we start judging them.
Wasn’t taking about the team? Isn’t the bottom 6 part of the team? What on earth are you talking about? They are part of the team and you are making an excuse for them and it’s a pathetic one, they just suck it’s not about them getting used to each other, when Vegas built their team out of the expansion draft those players didn’t need 20 games to adapt to a new line mates, they just adapted immediately, good players play good in any conditions, this bottom 6 Stan the Man put together are a bunch of AHLers, the end.
No, I was talking about why we don't have Hino, or Kampf. And I said (if you could read) that I will give our bottom 6 players more time to play together before I rag on them, because they have never played with each other, and have a coach jerking them all around. I base my judgements on the actual players and their abilities on the ice, not whether or not our GM acquired them or promoted them, like you.
and like I said. I'm not talking about the team, I'm talking about our bottom 6 players as individuals.
I detect a trend in Chicago. Rush the young Dmen in, realize they are not ready but instead of sending them down for grooming they give them up.
So true ... and we know why. Don't we? And its not because we have so many bottom-6 gifted players to choose from.
2 of those were Q falling in love with potential and making them play prior to ready in the NHL at 19. And then yeah, Bowman pushing them off for whatever reasons of waiver, future concerns, and both better zone defenders than man defenders
We have plenty of NHLers who can play 3rd line, and a couple that can play 4th.
Better than avaliable means they're not rushed how? It's ignorant of development time that serves good long term development. Somehow Chicago fans forgot that after that's literally what helped the cup winners as a clear strong formula of having great talent all around.
I liked Anisimov…he produced with Kaner okay, man if Kaner had an elite center his nunbers woukda been way higher…Handzus Anisimov Johnson…Toews only when they go nuclear
