I’M GOING CRAZY OUT BY DA LAKE DERE: Hockey Wilderness
The Hawks and Wild begin what would be a traditional, divisional home-and-home with the Wild here on Sunday, the kind that used to turn into a Saturday night on a payday weekend in Muskogee (JR FOREVER!) when it was the Hawks and North Stars, except for the small matter of a ridiculous trip to Edmonton and Friday night separating the contests. Either way, you’ll get a lot of Wild in your life this weekend, if that’s something you wanted (it wasn’t).
Game Time: 7:30PM Central

The Banquet Beer: Mile High Hockey
Amid the blowing snow propelled by wind carrying sub-zero chills, the Hawks will host the Colorado Avalanche for the first time this season on the west side. And though the Avs have predictably and hilariously fallen squarely on their stupid asses this season as basically everyone thought they would, they have still always been problematic for the Hawks even when they have sucked to (mile) high heaven.

The Great Southern Trendkill: Defending Big D
Now that the pomp and circumstance of the Winter Classic is behind everyone, the Hawks can get back to the matter of actually pursuing titles that matter, such as the division, conference, and engravings in sterling silver. That begins tonight with the Stars visiting the snowy west side for their second of three trips this season.

YO! MTV CAPS: Japer’s Rink, Russian Machine Never Breaks
Well, it’s finally here. The landmark the season kind of pivots around. With the holidays over and the season about to head into it’s interminable slog phase, and almost right on the halfway point, the NHL has its winter landmark. It’s the Winter Classic… between two teams who have no history with each other at a venue that wouldn’t even be close to old enough to drive yet. But hey, let’s enjoy it anyway, right? The NHL regular season offers no other more singular stage than this one.

NAME THEM GEORGE: Mile High Hockey
Once again, the Hawks and Avs will meet the day after Boxing Day, this time reversing venues and playing in The Pop Can in Denver. The Hawks will hope it goes a little better for them than it did the Avs last year, where DLR was called in from the pen in the 2nd period.
