well, atleast they can ice the puck on the empty net

I almost forgot how much i hate Chicago until I started watching this series...... I hate to wish injury on anyone but Seabrook, Kieth and Hjalmarsson could all take a slap shot to the teeth and not only would i not shed a tear, but id be smiling with joy
-
lol, we lose 5-2 and in Torts's interview the only player he calls out is Booth . One of the few players who has been showing any effort out there at all....
-
I was wondering about that. I'll bet he wants to just turn it all off after tonight.
Would be cool to see though... hopefully its atleast offered to him. Afterall, he is nicknamed Captain Canada for his loyal service to Team Canada
-
Any chance Smyth would play for Canada one last time at the World's ?
-
don't put words in my mouth please didn't say he was the best just saying plus/minus isn't the stat that determines how well a player plays defensively and pointing out the fact none of the 4 Edler Bieksa Hamhuis or Garrison have played great the last few years at this point all of them should be trade the d-core should be blown apart
There is a difference between not playing as good as you can be ( Hamhuis, Garrison ) and being completely detrimental to the team ( Edler ) . The amount of mistakes that lead to goals or getting walked around by opposing forwards has been glaring with Edler for years now. Go back and look at some of the threads about Edler from the last few years and we always heard " He's young, he will get better " or " look at how many points he gets " . I dont think anyone will deny that he has a hard shot and once a game or every 2nd game he will throw a big hit but that is not enough to justify how bad his play has been.
-
Man does Edler suck. And to think we still have him for 5 more years
I hope Edler just turns beast mode next season. He looks great today.
Its funny how 2 different people can watch the same game yet have complete different opinions on a player

Big surprise ... Edler gets walked around and has to take a penalty
-
Wonder if Luongo will tweet about why he wasnt put in the game to "mop up" after tonight . . .
-
Bob Murray said he put his two firsts and two seconds in play. Said he was left "confused" about deal that didn't get done, i.e. Kesler.
-
Higgens looks so disinterested out there
-
it's also not the first player to do the exact same play as Edler did tie up his man stop the scoring chance and both end up in the net watch some hockey happens all the time
Tying someone up is fine, but thats not what he did. He drove the player into Lack .
So just because he isnt the first player to do it, that doesnt make it a dumb play ?
-
ya because that was his intent
sorry, if you are an NHL D-man then you should be able to understand the path an opposing player is skating and where your net is. This isnt the first time Edler has driven a player into his own goalie
-
another example of how brain dead edler is..... he slew foot/drives a player right into Lack. Nice job !
-
7 goals given up in the 3rd period against one of the worst teams in the league ? And they were without Vanek and Tavaras who are there 2 best players ? lol........
-
This is what i dont understand about Torts. Higgens has been brutal all game long and keeps taking stupid penalties and yet he continues to play him . Give your head a shake Torts !
-
Brodie practically stopped at the hash marks and they still call icing ?
-
Is Kesler benched ? I havent seen him out there for a few shifts
-
and good ol Edler with another boneheaded play
-
Higgins has mishandled every single pass that has come his way tonight.
LACK!!!!!!
Higgens has been horrible and should be sitting at the end of the bench for the rest of the game
-
Edler 4 shots........ 4 blocked......... some things never change
-
I dont know why Higgens is always put on the 2nd line.....
-
Hopefully someone can make some nice pictures of Bieksa hammering on Giordano... or atleast the end when Gio was turtling
-
I would love to see Sestito knock Mcgratten out ! Imagine how pumped up the crowd and team would get ......
Hopefully its not a wrestle and grab fight,

So if there were early detections of Torts causing problems then why not remove him before the Heritage/Luongo debacle happened. Sure we got rid of Torts but we have now lost both of our star goalies and going into next season 'hoping' Lack can carry the load is a major problem for this team.
