Kevin W. Posted October 26, 2018 Share Posted October 26, 2018 Now more than ever it's becoming clear that the Blackhawks wouldn't have done so poorly and might not have missed the playoffs last year if Corey Crawford wasn't hurt. That being said, Jonathan Toews looking like he might be returning to form certainly doesn't hurt either.

Toews had a bad year last year, and I feel like if the Hawks did have Crawford, it would have been close last year. The whole team had a mediocre season. They are definitely are having a better season though "And those who know Your Name put their trust in You, for You, O Lord, have not forsaken those who seek You."

The_Admiral Posted October 26, 2018 Share Posted October 26, 2018 They didn't have a mediocre season, they had an unbelievably terrible season. Toews, Kane, and Saad all hit career lows, Seabrook was woefully out of shape, everyone's shooting percentage was way down, and the organization finally ran out of 1A-caliber backup goaltenders after hitting it big on Niemi, Emery, Raanta, and Darling. Everything that could go wrong did and it would be very hard to replicate that sort of misfortune. There are still a lot of problems on this team, especially on the blue line. I hated the Hjalmarsson/Murphy trade from day one because I'm not a believer in anyone who looks impressive on low-pressure, terminally out-of-it teams, and I thought it was a dick move to trade one of the very few players who actually took less money to stay with the team and the one who has physically sacrificed the most along the way. All the hard miles finally caught up to Hjalmarsson last year, but he appears to be back on track, while Connor Murphy is out indefinitely with a bad back. I'd undo that trade. Brandon Manning is often personally responsible for goals against, Brandon Davidson is a big nothing, and I'm not sure what Jan Rutta does. They need help bad but there's no help on the way; Forsling is on a conditioning assignment in Rockford but has been obviated by Henry Jokiharju, who's been impressive as hell at 19 while Forsling has logged 200some games without making The NHL Defenseman Leap. In other words, So I don't know where we're gonna get the help we need. Alec Martinez? Mark Pysyk? How can anyone trade for the man more valuable than Jonathan Marchessault? Most likely they finish fifth in the division and get fed to the Perds or Jets (who are really not coming out of the gate strong, I must say). EDIT: oh how could I forget, Chris Kunitz is making a bid for worst player in the NHL and yet he cannot seem to get a healthy scratch. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBTV Posted October 26, 2018 Share Posted October 26, 2018 OK... this has reached a new level of absurdity, though both pages are pretty entertaining. A few of my favorite lines: Quote WHEREAS, Gritty has been described as a 7-foot tall orange hellion, a fuzzy eldritch horror, a ghastly empty-eyed Mupped with a Delco beard, a cross of Snuffleupagus and Oscar the Grouch, a deranged orange lunatic, an acid trip of a mascot, a shaggy orange Wookie-esque grotesquerie, a non-binary leftist icon, an orange menace, a ranging id, and an antihero. Quote it has been argued that he "conveys the absurdity and struggle of modern life under capitalism" Quote Gritty, like our steadfast commitment to justice in the face of adversity, will not be mocked or stopped Quote Gritty may be a hideous monster, but he is our hideous monster "The views expressed here are mine and do not reflect the official opinion of my employer or the organization through which the Internet was accessed."
