If opponents can't beat the Hawks on the ice, opponents try to do it off the ice. Anything to hold onto hope. Over the years, the Hawks have lost important pieces. But they still come back and contend because the core is still intact. Now that Panarin is part of the new core, opposing fans are praying he leaves ... which is the farthest from the truth. Since when does Bowman rid of a core player once identified? Saad? I don't think he was ever considered an integral part of the core ... at least not enough to trade the players higher up in the food chain.
Will the Hawks lose some pieces going forward. Sure ... but not the players wished by opposing fans. For the time being, the Hawks' championship window is still wide open. It will end ... but not any time soon.
Some advice: Don't come to a village with a blowtorch when it's made of concrete and steel.
The Toews is the new Scott Gomez OR Crawford is Niemi v2.0 are far better threads. At least it's interesting.
i am being really honest here...... best comment i have seen ....
