Toews and Hossa are a perfect match. Should be paired together from here on…
yes, we finally got rid of the Charlie Sheen line (any line with Bruno is a 2 1/2 men line)
and Stalberg or Smith on that line… Stalberg actually made 2 decent passes (rare), he fits in ok with two guys who can get the puck off the boards and pass (opens ice for him to skate)
Olesz – best game as Hawk (not saying much)
Sharp- great hit
Kruger-Improving, (Kopecky lite), plays hard, still too skinny. He could be a the key to success… if he could replace Bolland on checking line (big if)… 10-36-88 would be another skilled line. Then the Hawks could go after a d-man who could hit and actually shoot the puck on net… Columbus BJ’s score two from the D and we continue to get our point shots blocked!
