The IceHogs played in 2 games before going into the Christmas break. The contests didn’t go the way they would’ve liked as they faced 2 Midwest Division rivals on the road and at home.

Event Summary
It doesn’t really get too much simpler than that.
Sure, the Devils equalized in the 2nd, and then pulled within one in the 3rd. Was anyone worried? Didn’t think so. While the Devils certainly work awfully hard and they do their best to close down whatever space there is, they simply couldn’t keep up with the Hawks. Nor could they really create much on their own, and the Hawks didn’t give them much. Throw in a couple goofy/bad goals from The Ginger, and only 12 shots against, and you have just about as assured a performance heading into the Christmas break as you could ask. Let’s get to The Two Obs.

I guess these things were meant to be, and there’s no use fighting what’s in me. Night on Earth.
All these places we used to go, when I loved you I didn’t see. I’ll miss you but now I’ll know better next time because I found me.
Passed some time on the stoop on the block were we used to sit. I thought about it all too much. I thought so hard I couldn’t see. Pete rode by on his Hutch.

God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen: In Lou We Trust
Somewhere John McDonough is livid that the Devils are in town on Christmas Eve Eve, the biggest marketing bonanza of the year, and there’s now not an extra dollar he can wring out of it with some punny or hackneyed take on their name or anything to relate to Christmas. The Devil and Christmas; never the twain shall meet outside of the brilliant mind of David St. Hubbins. And if McDonough really had any foresight, he’d make the Hawks wear home whites just to make the jolly fat man on the opposition have to wear red.
