Who knows, might end up getting traded back

Was thinking the same thing...

Another positive is that TVR looks like he's on pace to develop into a true top 4 d-man.

Duncan Keith undergoes successful surgery

dammit, did not see he was even hurt. next man up is starting early this year. Glad they have some confidence in Svedberg and TVR at least

I wonder if this steps up the trade talks - clearly a few tweaks were needed even before this. None of the d-men in Rockford are playing particularly well. Gustafsson has probably looked the best.

Cumiskey went down there late, didnt like keith and hammer much anyway, Hammer should be on the proper side. Dont know where Rosie is on his rehab. Daley should be able to move up, but I still think it should be Seabs, Hammer and Daley with one of the kids each.

Eric Lear @BHTVeric


With Keith out, D-pairs are Sveberg-Seabrook, Hjalmarsson-van Riemsdyk, Daley-Rundblad. #Blackhawks

 

[anotheridiot]

Two good games defensively, Svedberg is really playing a long stick Chara game. Who was that 13 on tampa reaching up to try to hit him in the face yesterday lol. Finish a PK and the first line that jumps out is Teuvo, Panarin and Kaner. That is gonna net some quick ones when a PP unit is trying to get off the ice.

Blackhawks recall Kero

Dont know if there is a corresponding move or thinking of moving Anisimov or Teuvo back to wing, or Kero to wing.

 

[anotheridiot]

Blackhawks recall Erik Gustafsson

up to 23

Blackhawks recall Kero

Dont know if there is a corresponding move or thinking of moving Anisimov or Teuvo back to wing, or Kero to wing.

Here's one writer's projected lineup:

Tikhonov Toews Hossa
Panarin Anisimov Kane
Teravainen Kero Garbutt
Desjardins Krüger Shaw

Hjalmarsson van Riemsdyk
Svedberg Seabrook
Daley Rundblad

Crawford

I am not sure if both of them will get in against winnepeg tonight, just think that Hammer is gonna go back to his off side and go with Gus to get him another swede buddy when Runblad pisses Q off.

Pretty sure if they are scoreless after one we are gonna see a bunch of juggling.

Did you see this?


check out after Q talks and Panarin feeds Kane, this kid really gets it.

Yeah, it's pretty clear that Hammer is better playing on the right side. Not sure Gustafsson is the answer, though.

 

[JBM73]

I think Rundblad may have just bounced himself out of the lineup last night...

 

[anotheridiot]

yup, Kero had a good night, really strange he replaced Teuvo though. TT was really active, dont know if it was an injury or last year all over again. All the juggling and yet another game only scoring 1 goal. Really taking their motto to heart.

 

[anotheridiot]

Ryan Hartman back up, Hinostroza was sent down Tuesday, I guess they are at 23 without sending anyone back yet.

 

[anotheridiot]

Bickell took Teuvos healthy scratch spot. It was actually nice to see an active third line with Teuvo, Kero and Hartman. Tough loss to Minnesota but they had some payback on their minds. Man, what a division.

 

[anotheridiot]

Blackhawks recall Dano, assign Bickell

Well, the waivers on Bickell gave them 30 days to send him down. Really interesting to see in Dano gets a shot against the kings tonight.

 

[JBM73]

Really interesting to see Dano get a shot against the kings tonight.

...and to see where they play him.

...and to see where they play him.

I think he dreams of playing with Hossa, he looked good preseason when playing with Toews and Hoss.

 

[davnlaguna]

Remember
Kings win the cup in even years.
It is only fair

 

[anotheridiot]

well, hawks had a pretty strong game, crow looked overmatched at the beginning, flurried at the end with some incredible chances. Hossa was out with an injury, dont know if Panarin is picking up english that they moved him up with Toews as expected, but he had two break aways, a few unbelievable passes and is really a great player. He was even going after a king after the second period ended.

Really also unbelievable that Svedberg is doing so well for a guy that could not skate. Spending big minutes on the PK.
