Official Chicago Blackhawks Thread: Bedard Era

You seem pretty riled up of this schtick of mine that doesn't even exist.

Just relax, friend.

 

"And what's more, among forwards, the Ducks' imbalance in TOI in Game 2 was arguably more significant than the Blackhawks' blue line imbalance. The Ducks top forward for TOI was Ryan Getzlaf, who logged 38:29, and their lowest forward in TOI was Jiri Sekac with 17:53. In fact, no one on the Ducks' fourth line of Sekac, Emerson Etem, and Richard Rakell played 20 minutes. In contrast, the 'Hawks' top forward was Patrick Kane with 34:26, and their lowest was Antoine Vermette with 21:14, and each member of Chicago's fourth line played more than 25 minutes. Both the Blackhawks and Ducks are constantly praised for the incredible depth, but it's obvious that Joel Quenneville trusts his depth up front more than Bruce Boudreau does in the tight overtime situations. Why isn't that a talking point?"

yep

 

"Truman, how do you feel about reupping Hitchcock and losing your 1st round pick to the Hawks "
"dude relax, you are really riled up"
"What about Hitch and Schmaltz?"
"Why are you so upset with my schtick. tag me."

Fucking Q just said he expects Versteeg to play in this series. God damn it.

 

you live in this thread... probably figured you could read it on one of you half dozen trips each day to our glorious thread.

 

You never asked, but since you just did.

Not a fan of reupping hitch or obviously losing Scmaltz. Neither has happen. Especially Smcaltz which the speculations seems like a reach at this point.

If/when it does, I'll have stronger feelings/opinions with more information.

 

Truman seems like the kid that would want to play with the cool kids and told to go away. He would then just follow the cool kids around from a distance to feel somewhat important.

I figured at some point as an adult you grow out of this... but he hasn't.

 

^ive never done that

Ive seen both of you and several others lurk in the cardinals thread. I don't make a big deal about it, because it's not a big deal.

I read and post in several team threads.

The fact you have issues with me itt is really odd and a violation of rule #1


Bankz I was the cool kid. Homecoming King

 

at who's expense?

 

1) I've never been in the Cardinals thread... ever. But make up lies to further your point.
2) I don't care that you come in this thread. But be honest about your pathetic behavior when called out on it. An entire thread of posters have the same feelings about you. Its not us.. it's truly you

 

Of course you deny it.

Where is this pathetic behavior? You act like I troll like @farta or AUB

I could say toews is the second coming of Christ and you'd take issue w it.

 

i have zero reason to ever go in the Cardinals thread.. 1) you guys are a horrible group of posters 2) I give no shits about the Cardinals

How many years has this site been up and running.. find 1 post of mine in that thread... just one.

 

I didn't say you post. But you absolutely lurk. Which is fine. Because it's a message board and all.

 

I mean who do you remove in place of him? does Q foresee an injury?

Teuvo has played better. And i might be drunk but he seems pretty decent on Defense too.

 

Dejardins imo

 

Desi plays PK. Bickell plays PP. It would have to be Teuvo.

Q drives me insane.

 

Desjardins has been awesome in his role imo. He won the battle in the corner for the puck, then brought it out to Seabrook to set up the OT winner.

Also sacrificing size/physicality with that move. 4th line has played great together.

 

It would have to be TT :/

 

i've never even opened the thread... ever

Seriously I have zero reason to ever step in that thread. You guys are shit tier posters and I give zero fucks about the team.

But again keep telling lies.

 

A) you calling anyone a shit tier poster is rich**

b) you wouldn't know about our posting if you never entered the thread. Way to contradict yourself.


***unless it's about bad television we watch.

 

TT should not be benched... that's fucking idiotic Q

 

You guys jump into this thread, I stay in the MLB thread and you also show off how horrible you guys are. I don't need to enter your thread to know you guys suck... You travel well on this board.

 

getting last change at home will be nice for Toews

 

Tracey Myers ‏@TramyersCSN
Maybe my eyes are deceiving me but don't believe I'm seeing Antoine Vermette out there for warmups. Versteeg is there. #Blackhawks

so Teuvo to Center? Not a fan but maybe Q was pissed at Vermette not finishing and dropoff in faceoffs wont matter...

 

Mark Lazerus ‏@MarkLazerus 3m3 minutes ago
#Blackhawks lineup: Saad-Toews-Hossa Bickell-Richards-Kane Sharp-Shaw-Versteeg Nordstrom-Kruger-Desjardins

no Teuvo either my god Q

 

What the hell is going on!?

 

I am absolutely pissed off

 

Vermette and Teuvo for Steeg and Nordstrom

wtf

disrupts the 4th line

 

He's obviously looking to be more physical.

 

has to be an injury to vermette

but i could see Q 'punishing' him for lapses on offense

 

Well, the 4th line is still fine. The 3rd line is worse and the first two lines are the same. Vermette better be dinged.

 

guess Vermette's injury forces Shaw to 3rd line Center --> thus need a 4th liner

still tho this lineup is not as good.

 

When they layout Vermette's numbers they are dogshit. Shaw played well. I mean, I've talked myself off the ledge on this one. Teravainen to Versteeg is less defensible.

 

WTF is iSC. Jen is dogshit.

 

She comes up with some new bullshit every week and very little means anything. Her articles have almost 0 analytical value.

 

I was yelling pretty loudly when Versteeg missed his first shift for erroneously thinking there would be too many men on the ice

 

at least she reviews the tape so we dont have to
