Another home opener, another over the top red carpet ceremony on Madison before the game, another protracted pre-anthem introduction, all minus the banner raising that should be happening. And tonight’s guests, the Buffalo Sabres, are just the second milepost of 82 until when the games will actually be of consequence again.

Everything Else

I do this every year, basically so you lot have cudgel with which to beat me over the head in April. I’m here for you people. So let’s get to it.

Hawks Points Total – 108. They are capable of 115 or 116 but I doubt they escape the injury bug and there’s always the March doldrums they seem to go through that limits their output. Where that puts them in the division? Probably 2nd as I’m guessing the Blues go all out to avoid the Hawks in the 1st round (putting them in prime position to lose to Dallas in the 1st round). Which almost certainly means another tussle with Minnesota. Fun times!
