The Hawks and Penguins will venture out to the Lakefront to combat temps in the teens and an approaching snowstorm (it may or may not get here in time for the game, but the way this winter’s gone, it’ll get here). Oh, and each other I suppose.
Both teams did not come out of the break in a fashion they would have wanted. The Hawks looked a little leggy in a 2-1 loss to the Rangers, and the Pens coughed up five goals to the Canadiens at home and eventually lost in a shootout. Both teams would like to kickstart their run-in tonight.
I should probably warn you. There’s going to be a lot of teeth-gnashing from the Triumvirate here before the trade deadline about a second line center. Yes, it mostly has to do with Ryan Kesler, and that’s heightened by our unconditional love for that player. Yes, he’s hated by a large swath of Hawks fandom and Hawks players (I can only imagine how icy the handshake between him and Toews would be if he were miraculously acquired). I know he’s not coming, but you always dream. But that doesn’t mean that it’s not a screaming need for the Hawks, and the struggles of the second and third lines the past month (or two?) has highlighted it.
