The street is cold, the dawn is grey
My heart says no but my head says stay
My work is finished, or so I’ve been told
Can’t part the three of us, once we got a hold

DON’T FORGET WE’RE AT THE BOTTOM LOUNGE FOR THIS ONE TONIGHT! 1375 W. LAKE ST.
Always nice to remember why you put up with the slog that the NHL season can sometimes turn into, and the Hawks will obviously get a reminder tonight when they step onto Garden ice tonight. As you may have read from everyone and their mother, the Hawks return to the site of their latest triumph tonight to face what has only been the hottest team in the league lately. And they were pretty farkin’ good before that. So yay.

Pigs in Zen: I-90 Adventures
The IceHogs had a home-and-home series against the Chicago Wolves during week 25 of the AHL schedule. The I-90 rivalry is normally good for providing entertaining match-ups, but there were a few more adventures than normal this weekend.

Fantasy Killer: Stars 2 – Hawks 4
When the Stars look back on what will likely be a missed playoff spot, it might be this night that they point to. Before the night they probably counted on the Penguins doing them a favor and perhaps sneak a point or two off a still sleepy Hawks team. The Hawks weren’t all that sleepy, the Pens probably were, and the Hawks walked away with two points and the Starts with a three-point gap to the last wild card.
It’s still kind of startling how the Hawks can exert just enough to not only swing a game but pretty much dominate it. The shot-board says 42-27, and there were definitely stretches where the Hawks pinned the Stars in. But this wasn’t an all-out assault we’ve seen before. It was more pure control, not letting anything get out of the bottle (except for Garbutt’s two goals). Containment rather that domination. It’s still quite effective, and doesn’t take everything out of the legs.
So let’s get to it.

Second Period Thread – Stars vs Hawks
Don’t judge the boy by what you hear. The words are heard beyond the ear, the heart and mind are focus for this conversation. But be abound in mystery for that so much you do to me for there are those who drown in adulation.

First Period Thread – Stars vs Hawks
Oh, welcome to this world of fools, of pink champagne and swimming pools. Well, all you have to lose is your virginity. Perhaps we’ll have some fun tonight so stick around and take a bite of life, we don’t need feebleness in this proximity.

This Love: Defending Big DWhat six months ago looked to be just another game along the home stretch of the schedule between the Stars and Hawks figures tonight to be anything but. The Stars are fighting for their playoff lives in the newly configured Western Conference, while thousands of sweaty adult men clad in red anxiously await their first glimpse of a taut, 19-year old Scandanavian boy in a Hawks uniform.
