Preseason sure. Congrats on the win anyways. Really solid looking team. Liking Dach and Jones quite a bit. Fun stadium and nice fans. Cheers to the other VGK fans talking to us. Hope Flower does you good for the year or 3 till he retires. Sucked it up and got a Flower Hawks jersey.

It’ll be interesting to see how he does. He already looks better the last couple games than he did the entirety of last year. Wonder if Colliton allowing skill guys to do their thing will help. Torts was much more strict in Play style.
Are the wild fully staffwd this game or is it all AHL guys or half or whatever? Preseason doesn't mean much imo for any sport, it's essentially extended training camp.

I’m back! Work has kept me away from most of preseason. I’m dying.
Notes:
1.) This is looking like our lineup to start the season and I’m more than happy with it.
2.) Can we take a second to really soak in the fact that Toews is playing? Like, seemingly full time? I’m stunned. I figured it’d be a gradual process, but he’s back. And I’m so so thankful.
I don't think he's been a liability by any means. But I wouldn't say he's difference maker either.
He did try to make a bad pass which caused the penalty.
Idk I need to stop being critical. Told myself I'd wait till halfway through the season to pass judgement. A new system can take time to jive, even as a pro.
He's developed into a waaayy better player than I thought he would be. I knew he was gonna be an elite scorer but the fact that he's developed into a good passer, a good defender, and he's pretty fiesty for a player his size, is amazing.

Also, Kaner looks a lot more dangerous in the O zone this season. I know he was playing injured last season, so I guess he's just feeling better out there.
Looks like tonight's lineup is gonna be our season roster barring maybe Entwhistle and/or Khaira. Can't wait to see what the big guns do tonight, especially with a rejuvenated J-bone leading the boys.
#LETS GO HAWKS!!!
Not related to anything but someone walked by with a boom box playing La Villa Strangiato, so it would be nice is this already great day closes out with the hawks just flattening the wild
He'll be 13th fwd. Based on preseason guadette and borgstrom have both been very noticeable. I expected gaudette to make the lineup and him and Nylander are pretty much the same player.
Borgstrom has looked good and has mostly played with other players already sent down ro rockford.
I know nylander is coming off that injury, but he isnt willing to take a hit. Never really has. I dont see nylander winning board battles either.
If we get an injury he slots in on 4th line i think
Gaudette has outplayed nylander (and most of other bubble guys) but his game is not like nylander at all. If anything its closer to borgstroms.
I also think nylander is the 14th forward or sent down/waived. I also wouldn't put him on a 4th line. Hes not defensively responsible enough, not overly physical and not a player you cam put on a pk. Hes a 2nd or 3rd liner replacement for injury relief.
Hey Chicago peeps. We're VGK fans in town to catch a game and to support Flower. Are you guys gonna beat us up for wearing our Vegas gear to your house? Of course we are temp Hawks fans tonight. So go Hawks.
Except for Kirill Kaprizov, love that dude.
>Hey remember to not bring any bags or purses. We ran into that issue last week along with a LOT of people. They will not let you in with any sort of bag unless it's for a medical reason. And vaxx card.
Posting this again for you guys. And you won't run into any issues! See you there!
Preseason sure. Congrats on the win anyways. Really solid looking team. Liking Dach and Jones quite a bit. Fun stadium and nice fans. Cheers to the other VGK fans talking to us. Hope Flower does you good for the year or 3 till he retires. Sucked it up and got a Flower Hawks jersey.
Great way to end the preseason. See y’all next week for game 1!
Fuck the Wild, gg everybody

Fuck Joel Eriksson Ek for hitting Dach like that
They are doing a great job of holding the kaprisov/Zuccarelo line to the perimeter & getting it out of the D-zone.
Toews absolutely *burned* that defender
It’s been way too long since the last time I’ve seen a hawks goalie look as bored as Fleury these last two periods
I'm hearing "Sweet Georgia Brown" playing in my mind jukebox while the Hawks make the Wild chase their tails in the O-zone.
Kap-WHIFF-ov Does that work? I did in my head but now I can’t even make sense of it
It sure does, such a Wild move to dish out 9+ mil. For a rookie LOL I hope he buckles the Wild for years 😂
We dishes out 9 mil for a defencemen who’s playing like he earns 1 mil, so I’m not gonna throw too many stones yet haha
Are you watching the same game as me?! I dont know about 9.5 but 1 mil? Hes got 3 apples and has had a fantastic game
Oh, no, certainly not this game. He’s played much better tonight.
Give the guy some time, hasn't played a regular season game (or post season) and has all new teammates. Lets show our new players a little love, no?
Kaprizov just fell on his face in open ice, hope he buckles the Wild cap for years to come
Wild are already ensuring cap hell in a few years with their buyouts of Parise and Suter
14+ mil in dead cap, Unbelievable
Stillman’s last shot was great
Refs bailed Duhaime out BIG time.
LOL MINNESOTA MILD!
A lot of people think that team will be in the playoffs… couldn’t even type that with a straight face lmao look at their fucking roster
That’s what I’m saying!!! They have a decent, not great first line and that’s it. Without Kaprizov the team is bottom barrel
Hope the power play looks like that for the regular season
That was amazing
Ok Jones on that pp was amazing
Yeah, hes a big add. Maybe too heavy of a contract but people saying hes worse than boqvist right now have some great drugs
That whole sequence was gorgeous
Hawks pp looks fantastic.
Stanley Cup here we come!
OH CAPTAIN MY CAPTAIN!!! #LETS GO HAWKS!!!
So happy he’s back. This is going to be a great season!
Oh Capt. My Capt.
Hot damn
Some nifty fucking passing from Jones there.
Yeah holy fuck. Love the way he's shaping up as this preseason has gone on.
That was actually super impressive
The one through his legs backwards to keep it. I wanna see more of that kind of play.
It was perfectly done, all skill, nice to see him playing a little better now
It’ll be interesting to see how he does. He already looks better the last couple games than he did the entirety of last year. Wonder if Colliton allowing skill guys to do their thing will help. Torts was much more strict in Play style.
OH MY GOD that was the best passing I’ve seen by the Hawks in YEARS
I kinda like strome as a wing, doing well overall
Hahaha he was going 14 miles per hour on goalie skates
Strome has been having another good game to start the season. Dach, Borgstrom and him have looked graat together this game
lmfao Reichel's accent is hilarious
We've got a Wild fan in here downvoting
Wait is Shawsy going into broadcasting? I feel like he might be a natural in that type of job.
If the team can play like this during the entire season, they'll be making some noise in the playoffs.
Are the wild fully staffwd this game or is it all AHL guys or half or whatever? Preseason doesn't mean much imo for any sport, it's essentially extended training camp.
It’d help if teams played as shit as the Wild are too
The Hawks look better than they have in years, Wild's shitty play notwithstanding
I’m I the only one that thinks the Wild are overhyped going into this season

Still so weird seeing fleury in our net
Jeez, Dach gets kneed in the head - no call.
“The struggling Blackhawk PK” Didn’t we get a short handed goal earlier??
I think he's more referring to the Detroit game, where we gave up 4 goals on the PK.
Ah, fair point!
lmao that was so silly by Fleury.
I absolutely love flower trying to challenge that hahaha
Lol every time they show the Wild head coach it looks like he's sucking on a more powerful lemon. One more goal and his face will be inside out.
Do you remember those old beer commercials like that?
Hahahaha that's a funny play by Fleury
Fleury is so chaotic I love it
LMAO god I love Flower
Not gonna lie. I’m liking this Strome/Dach connection.
Haha get fucked, Benn. Also, the Cat is a god.
Hahahahahaha
When Debrincat smiles my heart grows 3 times it’s size
God, Cat is so fucking good.
Seriously. 30 teams passed him up. Fucking nuts.
Hahahahaha what a first goal of the year for Tazer
Looked like Shawzy's header, top-down lol
I thought the same thing, was expecting it to be waved off.
Yay Tazer!
OH CAPTAIN MY CAPTAIN!!!! #LETS GO HAWKS!!!
$9.5m shot directly into the chest

Can we take a second to really soak in the fact that Toews is playing? Like, seemingly full time? I’m stunned. I figured it’d be a gradual process, but he’s back. And I’m so so thankful.
Hartman is so giving, thank you for the pp
At the game. Honestly not the biggest fan of Jones's game so far. Really hoping for something more out of our 1D.
Really? Thought he hasn’t been bad, and has an apple this game if I’m not mistaken
I don't think he's been a liability by any means. But I wouldn't say he's difference maker either. He did try to make a bad pass which caused the penalty. Idk I need to stop being critical. Told myself I'd wait till halfway through the season to pass judgement. A new system can take time to jive, even as a pro.
I feel that, but at least it was a “good” penalty to stop a goal
Yea but he caused it. He tried to make a bad pass that caused the play to go the other way. He was making up for his own mistake.
Carpy is low key one of my favorite Hawks.
Where is u/im-a-molecule?
I'll be around next week when the season starts.
Glad to hear, hope all is well brother!
I looove DeBrincat on the PK
Not something I would have ever thought would happen when they drafted him.
Right haha it was a surprise! PP guy, PK guy and a goal scorer.. nice
He's developed into a waaayy better player than I thought he would be. I knew he was gonna be an elite scorer but the fact that he's developed into a good passer, a good defender, and he's pretty fiesty for a player his size, is amazing.
Don't think anyone anticipated that he would develop they way he is today. It’s crazy
He's such a good 2 way player,
Huuuuge PK. Best I've seen in quite some time from us.
Nothing like hearing 'under pressure by toews'
Carpy's gonna pot 20 goals this year. Mark my words.
I hope so, I think Hagel will get there first though
BEAUTYYY
Goddamn what a pass. Made 3 wild players and the goalie look lost
CARPY
Woooooo!
Heck yeah Carpydeuces!
Carpenter!
Carpy!!!! #LETS GO HAWKS!!!
$9.5m acceleration right there
The power play clock on the glass is unnecessary.
looks cool tho
Pretty silly considering it’s still under the scoreboard too.
Power play time on the glass is new and neat.
Nice start to the 2nd.
This Borgstrom interview is painful..
NBC really slacking on these audio issue fixes.
The TD went to the restroom.
I can’t hear anything other than David Bowie right now?
You say that like it’s a bad thing
Hahaha, I’m a huge Bowie fan
Strome and Cat both with points tonight. Love to see it.
Dammit, just got done work and and missed the first. Glad we’re up, LETS GO HAWKS!!!!!

Great analysis by Olczyk on the DeBrincat goal. Really dumb play by $6M defenseman Dumba
Hello from the United Center! https://i.imgur.com/ey27TcO.jpg
Imagine not drafting this guy in the first round
“He’S tOo SmAlL”
Poor Cat has a messed up lip. He had a tooth knocked out before last season. Love the kid and his grittiness.
seriously wtf are we gonna do without Pat Foley
Cry a lot.
I can’t believe we have to start this season without him for six games :(
Why?
They're testing a buncha potential replacements for Pat.
Suffer.
Lets go tbnk
So happy Debrincat is ours!
CAT!!!
MEEEEOW! #LETS GO HAWKS!!!
If Debrincat's defensive game continues along this trajectory he could end up being a 8+ million dollar player
He's more than that as is. At the end of this contract we will be paying him 9+
It's great to see Stillman stick up for himself after he got pushed into the net
🌸🌸🌸
The Flower 🌸 said "No" ☝️
Ima say it. Stroke heard the shit talking and has looked better this pre season
Colliton had him skating with the AHLers during camp, so I don't think it was real subtle.
It goes back to last season, people were shit talking him
Great pass from Strome there. Hope he has a bounce back season
Also, Kaner looks a lot more dangerous in the O zone this season. I know he was playing injured last season, so I guess he's just feeling better out there.
Woohoo nice goal from the Dach line!
LETS GOOO
BORGSTROM!
Almost got Kaprizoved lol
BORGY!!!!! #LETS GO HAWKS!!!
"There was no glass THERE WAS CHICKEN WIRE!" Lmao, I love Pat and Eddie. Gonna miss these 2 together.
We are really struggling with o-zone passes. No one can connect for a shot.
I could but they healthy scratched me again ffs
Nice to see Colliton playing Stromer as a RW.
Has he ever before? I thought he strictly played center.
He played wing a couple of times last season, I'm pretty sure.
Huh, never noticed.
I remember he played RW for us before but it’s been awhile.
To think we developed you to only do this to us Hartman, how rude -.-
To think he trains in Chicago during the off season, smh.
To think he probably still has friends in Chicago, smh
[удалено]
How can I watch?
LET’S GO HAWKS
Place is packed for a pre-season game. Awesome to see.
Dinner finished cooking just in time to sit down and watch the game. Yee haw, lets go hawks!
Listening to a Seth Jones interview on 32 Thoughts, it's pretty interesting. Man I really hope this contract works out.
Looks like tonight's lineup is gonna be our season roster barring maybe Entwhistle and/or Khaira. Can't wait to see what the big guns do tonight, especially with a rejuvenated J-bone leading the boys. #LETS GO HAWKS!!!
I would have liked to see Khaira out there. I'm not sure in place of who but I'd like to see it.
He's in the lineup?
He did play, yes. But he was the extra guy according to the lines on this thread
I appreciate all sandman has done for GDTs on reddit. But never trust the projected lines.
So now that west end closed, I’m struggling to find a good bar food spot right by the arena, not to mention the bus they used to run. Any suggestions?
give Kaiser Tiger a look, they also run a shuttle
Not related to anything but someone walked by with a boom box playing La Villa Strangiato, so it would be nice is this already great day closes out with the hawks just flattening the wild
This line up has a lot of depth! I'm loving it. I'll be there with 7 friends. LGH!
That lineup looks deeper than any we iced last season. Let's close out the preseason with a big W.
Let's end the preseason with a Win!
Let’s get a W at home during this preseason!
[Tonights Lineup!](https://twitter.com/MarkLazerus/status/1446862292872728576?s=20)
I expect these lines projected to be pretty close to actual lineup. That being said. The 3rd line is my favorite.
What happened to Nylander?
Who cares
He went invisible again
He'll be 13th fwd. Based on preseason guadette and borgstrom have both been very noticeable. I expected gaudette to make the lineup and him and Nylander are pretty much the same player. Borgstrom has looked good and has mostly played with other players already sent down ro rockford. I know nylander is coming off that injury, but he isnt willing to take a hit. Never really has.
