Playoff "Beast"
One poster just today was talking about how good his playoff has been
Maybe playoff "beast" is like a Walmart "beast". If so I'm buying that.

Steve Bartman was a nice guy who unfairly is blamed for Cubs failure
Bickell is 100% responsible for killing all hope in Chicago
Rex Grossman is only player comparable to Bickell

I'd be willing to retain 1M max if that's what it takes. I'd rather buy him out than retain 2M of his salary. Hawks badly need the cap room next year.

I don't think adding 2 years of cap hit is worth saving .5-1M for 1 season, especially since the team is most likely taking a step back next year. That short-term savings is almost certainly not going to be the difference between a cup next season but it could be in the 2 extra years a buyout would add.

Sharp has had some decent moments in postseason and at least tries when on ice
Bickell doesn't care and has been killing team for last 5 series

Blackhawk Down
My point is, will he ever live this down?
Btw, the way he just did a 90 degree turn to get off the ice for the change made it look like he was out there to screw up on purpose at which point he says "my works done--gotta go!"

Bickell still has plenty of good moments for fans to remember him by. Campoli is someone who will never live down his brainfart.

If he does have negative value (i.e. the Hawks have to package something of value to get rid of him), just buy the usless plug out.

Dude that is two games thrown away due to Q and Bickell, you can only make so many mistakes till you lose the series. Remember this is a game of bounces, you never know what happens in the next two games. I still think the Hawks got this but these mistakes are inexcusable. **** Q AND **** BICKELL
Bickell did score the tying goal in a Stanley Cup winning game he's not exactly some curse guy.
But as a rather ardent supporter of Bickell over the past couple of years....**** that guy. What a terrible, awful, useless, insert 20 other synonyms here play.

I still have trouble understanding how people continued to defend Bickell after he admitted he didn't try during season
I know he's a professional but I have no idea how he is going to have any confidence left after that crap. I hope he doesn't come out and stink it up again in Game 6 and cost them their season.
Do you watch hockey?
The solution at this point is a buyout, and it's not even close.
Wow. You're really speaking with a lot of passion when you're willing to spell out AINEC.
