Here’s where the Hawks will probably dabble the least.
With Viktor Stalberg’s inevitable departure and the trade of Michael Frolik, it seems as though many long-marinating Pigs such as Ben Smith, Jeremy Morin, and Jimmy Hayes will get their shot at being full-time NHLers this season. But that doesn’t mean there aren’t some intriguing options out there, provided they’re willing to hop on board the Good Ship Blackhawk for cheap

So bets on who’s the most drunk? Whose name gets mispronounced by a civic dignitary? Which player absolutely tanks his speech at the podium? The Kris Versteeg Ill Flowz Award?
To the surprise of exactly no one with a functioning brain, it’s been announced today that Stan Bowman will use the Hawks’ two “Compliance Buyouts” on Steve Montador and Rusty Olesz.

This will free up some much needed cap room, and these two players were the two obvious choices. But Bowman can’t and won’t stop there.
It’s a long way down the Holiday Road.
Hawks win. Enjoy.
Sail up into the night sky until our worlds collide. Tonight we feel alive. Stand up where I can see you, no reason left to hide. Tonight we feel alive.
Will your legs fail you, when you stand too straight and tall? ‘Cause in a world gone mad, the taller you are, the harder you fall.
The face of another day, searching of the voice of a better way. They say that it’s a bad time of year to be up in arms, so we’re pushing on ’cause we know in our hearts it’s the only way to stay afloat with the sharks at bay. Avoid being a casualty of the circumstances, and second chances are shredded day by day

For all of the mewling on both sides about the various issues surrounding both the Bruins and Blackhawks, today the series finds itself pretty much exactly where everyone thought it would be. And with the series being tied 2-2 after the Hawks regained home-ice advantage on Wednesday, tonight’s game 5 is critical in taking a grip on the series.
On the first day of summer, especially with it coming on a Friday, it only seems appropriate that our selection today be the current reigning king of the summer blockbuster, Robert Downey, Jr. And though his facial hair is as versatile as the actor himself, it is today that we recognize the efforts of RDJ and his beard.
