But if they'd traded Kane or Toews right after the greatest season in franchise history it would have been their biggest PR disaster since Bobby Hull left. And it's Rocky and McDonough we're talking about, PR is king.



I understand. It was a tough spot. But that's why they are where they are now and are going to be for awhile.

My favorite Alpo Suhonen factoids:

Suhonen also produced a Finnish version of Cat on a Hot Tin Roof and ran for a spot in the European Parliament. At the time he was also the CEO of music festival Pori Jazz, and he has also written several books in Finnish.


Interim coach for the Chicago Wolves in 1997 as well...


Baby McNown approves.

Yeah, Cammi Granato!
That's cool. Nearly 50% of hockey fans are women so it would be cool to see that happen.

So is Carcillo blaming the Blackhawks for Montador offing himself? Fuck off with that.

Hm, Sheldon Brookbank is an assistant coach with the IceHogs. I don't remember whether I knew that.

Bernstein referring to Scotty Bowman as "Scott." Has anyone ever called him that?

I think the one played for the Hawks and his brother played for the Icehogs at the same time.

You just plop in a forward who would never be on your PK or in a 4 on 4 situation into the box to sit the 5 minutes.

Kane serves lots of bench minors on the off chance they can spring a breakaway out of the box (and he's not killing penalties anyway). Could have put him in there late in the penalty.

The reason they no longer use Kane in that situation is that if the other team commits a penalty, you want Kane for the 4 on 4.

Use Fortin, he couldn't kill a penalty with an AR-15.

That's your ideal guy for that role. He could sit all 5 minutes in there

Yeah, he was OK.


Best Coaches in Hawks history, ranked in order.


1. Q
2. Keenan
3. Graham
4. Sutter
5. Murdoch
6. Tessier
7. Alpo
8. Savard
9. Pully
10. Reay


Dirk Graham? Are you fucking kidding me? Alpo? What the fuck?!? Given how stupid your list is, I'm assuming the Sutter you mean is Brian. And what, no Trent Yawney?

Jesus fucking christ.


Graham brought da fire and passion, just didn't have the Horses....Yawney was #11, only did a top 10... :lol:

Awwwww Jeez... I love coach Q and that was a great 10 years. I think maybe the end of the year or next year would have be okay. I don't know anything about the colliton but I'm pretty sure he's not going to be as good. Bowman should have been gone first. I think we are going to see some disinterested hockey players and more games like the last few years. Depressing because they had a little bit of giddy up going that I haven't seen in a while.
