The Great John Hayden Debate (& other ex-Hawks): Volume 6

Not disagreeing at all lol.

Saad looks great for Avs

Avs won deal

Lehner not so much though

I dont get why he's playing. The wild game 7 was 2 days ago. Not like back to back so why "rest" Fleury

 

[clydesdale line]

Saad always turns it on in the playoffs. Usually is a very good playoff performer. This is nothing new. Plus playing for a contract is pretty good motivation as well.

I mean, we will still have Zadorov or assets from him, Avs will probably not have anything.

Most likely he played because DeBoer knew Vegas was going to get blown the hell up, and didnt want to subject his number one to the onslaught.

Always a lame excuse, or we could have resigned him? Or how about the excuse for Panrin for Saad was that Saad had two more years in his contract? Wasnt that a failure of a trade because Saad only stayed for 3 years and one was a horrendous year and we got a Zodorov for him which looked horrible in the second half of the year. I would take Panarin at his current contract, who wouldn’t? We were robbed of incredible years of Panarin/Kane combo, we not only were robbed of the incredible duo but the team has been garbage and that move made the team worse short term and long term, the team has done nothing so far, even this year was meh, there is no guarantee next year won’t be the same or the year after or the year after that, there isn’t that promising of an improvement, there just isn’t but most will stay in denial. How is Stan still on the helm just blows my mind.

Pretty sure I didnt comment on the Panarin for Saad trade, or on Bowman himself.

As for re-signing Saad, no thanks.

Except perhaps a Cup.

It’s either Colorado or Tampa’s to lose IMO

Just a good playoff performance from Saad is all they’ll get I guess

And more than half the time we can't even get a good regular season performance from Zadorov.

 

[Hawkaholic]

Maybe, but that means nothing for the Hawks, who would have been the same team with or without Saad.

 

[ClydeLee]

Well speaking of UFAs not that significant but key, Danault is onto round 2 and hey, at least the bad trade delayed the "new" Hawks from winning

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

So glad Gus was not signed longterm

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

Its a damn shame we rarely saw this Saad in his 2nd time with team (Largely since team sucked and missed playoffs all but last year)

Goal in 5th straight game

Avalanche won that trade and Saad playoff run is going to get him another big deal as FA if he wants it (Could return to Avs if he takes less)

 

[Blackhawks]

TT is just unbelievable, that trade was horrendous from day fricking one, Stan should have been fired the day he made it, just an insane passer, Kane level s***.

Teuvo Time's no look, back to the play, skate deflection pass up ice to a streaking Aho for a score yesterday's game, one of the ten best passes I've ever seen - in 50+ years of watching hockey. I'm still not sure it wasn't just accidental b/c it was just too good to be on purpose.

Love too watching him & Aho play the top twosome on a PK. Sticks in lanes, angles taken, and always looking to break it going the other way for a possible SHG. Just two beauties at playing puck.

Ya that something else, I didn’t believe it was an intended pass either at first hut at the same time it had to be, just crazy.

I have my doubts that it was intended but it certainly was pretty.
And Aho is dam good.

Are you in the wrong thread again buddy?

 

[BobbyJet]

No, but it seems you may be. buddy.

No, but it seems you may be.

Looks like it. Or it’s a function of the one person I ignore. Hopefully I’m just wrong. I like when that happens
