Love dem Hawks fans with the "De-troit sucks" chant every chance they get... jelly?

Jealous that your city is a stink hole? No


sharp at center? Crazy

 

[Revenant]

Patrick Sharp back to playing center? I never thought I'd see the day.

 

[Revenant]

:lol this red wings team is garbage

kyle quincey is king of the garbage mountain.

 

[Marvie_3]

Stop with the fucking blind back passes Kruger

 

[Wingfan19]

I wonder if Detroit can package Quincey, Cleary, White, Filppula, and Samuelsson in a trade for a 5th round pick? Make it happen Kenny!!!

 

[Revenant]

crawford :lol :lol

Marty needs to tear his groin or something so he can finish as a career Devil with 666 wins.

 

[Marvie_3]

Smart play by Handzus. He knew the Hawks wouldn't score on that PP so he took a penalty to even it out.

Drew Miller appears to be a recent graduate as well

Anderson is looking much better tonight. You can probably chalk up his first few starts back to rust.

:lol :lol

How has he been for you guys?

:lol :lol

He's fit in just fine. I think you overrated his shittiness just a tad.

 

[Wingfan19]

Shocked the Wings aren't down 3-0 after 1. They looked like shiiiiiiiiiit to start the game off.

 

[KernelPanic]

Looks like he is back to pre-injury form, which is a good thing as they are tired tonight and it shows.

I don't think he can play enough games to qualify for the Vezina, unless they lowered the requirement due to the short season.

Chicago Blackhawks @NHLBlackhawks
The #Blackhawks have agreed to terms with 2013 Hobey Baker Award winner Drew LeBlanc

Nice

 

[Smiley90]

Nice

Read that as "Hobby Baker Award", was waiting for the inevitable "Kessel to Chicago" trade rumours.

 

[KernelPanic]

So that's what started the fight in the 2nd, looks like Henrique was hit by a sniper bullet here:

What are you talking about, Henrique is brutally honourable. Or so.

FUCKING SMITH U DINK

FUCKING SMITH U DINK

That was beyond dumb, WTF was he thinking there.

We just won a game(shutout) with 11 SoG lol.

Eh

Even if he qualifies on games I can easily see it going to Backstrom, or another numerically inferior but more frequently starting goalie.

[Dastardly Jerks]

Stock just said on radio if he had to give the Norris out now he'd give it to Beauchimen.......

That's a bad thing? He's finally getting a little recognition.

He's played all games so far and has been our best D. He's a HUGE reason why we're doing so well.

Only reason people aren't noticing is because he isn't putting up goals. Which seems to be how people are rating how Norris-worthy a D is nowadays. What a joke.

 

[Cake Boss]

Won with 11 shots.

It's the same reason Brodin won't be getting the Calder.. Hopefully he'll at least get nominated.

 

[Marvie_3]

Crow!

 

[Cagey]

Before Marty went down: 10-3-4
After Marty went down, before Kovalchuk: 3-6-2
After Marty returns, before Kovalchuk: 2-0-0
After Kovalchuk: 0-6-3

12-3-4 when our goalie and superstar winger are healthy (regardless of all other injuries). 3-12-5 when one of the two is down.

End this season FFS. Put me out of my misery.

 

[KernelPanic]

Won with 11 shots.

Why was Turris taking that faceoff with 2 mins to go and their goalie out ?

He either loses face offs or gets tossed out of the circle.

 

[Dastardly Jerks]

Oh wow. This gif is FANTASTIC.

Exactly. Can't have exceptional defencemen being nominated for, y'know, BEING GOOD DEFENSE or anything now can we.

They all gotta put up 90 points and spend more time in the crease than covering their guy.

 

[equippedwithtowel]

Won with 11 shots.

Outshoot 2:1 against Clemmenson = loss

11 shots on Brodeur = win

I'll take it.

I.. I don't know what that means anymore..

Turris and Gonchar need to be taken out of the PP.

offensive blackholes.

I'm not saying he shouldn't get a nomination or some recognition, but to say he should be the winner is ridiculous.

 

[Wingfan19]

If Wings don't score before the end of the 2nd, they're losing. But hey, we didn't need a goal scorer.

 

[KernelPanic]

Pray for Spezza and Karlsson to come back by end of this month.

 

[Dastardly Jerks]

If Subban wins, even after holding out on the start of the season for so long, then it's undeserved.

Good enough to be nominated but not good enough to win?

 

[Red_Man]

What does he him holding out have to do with it? If anything the fact that he's leading D man in points and playing so well after missing the first 2 weeks of the season and camp should make a better case for his winning it.

 

[pringles]

Chicago's only lost 1 game against the Central this year. That's insane.

Also if we get shutout fucking again tonight I'm going to go insane.

The Norris isn't the Art Ross for defenseman. Subban's a fantastic player but there are more then a few better defensive defenseman in the league right now.

On the other hand Karlsson won last year so I guess I have no right to complain.

 

[Smiley90]

Oh man, we really need a resident Columbus fan (LEEROY JEEENKINS), so this can become the official CBJ WIN gif (or, alternatively, Anisimov scores?)

Only players in Montreal and Toronto deserve awards.

Subban gets relatively easy minutes 5-on-5, he is not playing against the opponent's best players and out of his 34 points only 11 are at even-strength.

Don't even mention him and Erik in the same sentence.

 

[Marvie_3]

Hawks on the PK. Who does Quenneville put out there for the faceoff... Toews? Handzus? Nope. Marcus fucking Kruger.



Fuck.

 

[Wingfan19]

Thank god they scored. If Franzen actually got that, that's his first in like a billion games.

 

[kassatsu]

Lol that gif
