Gordie Howe hat trick 110 Report post Posted November 18, 2007 Did I miss him? Or was he a healthy scratch in favor of Meech because, I know that Lilja was a scratch for Meech in St. Louis. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gordie Howe hat trick 110 Report post Posted November 18, 2007 Well now that I think about it, maybe it is because the Hawks were dressing 7 D men this game so they thought they could try to give Meech some ice time...either way I would take Cheli over him.

Lou_Siffer 1 Report post Posted November 18, 2007 Chelios even at this point in his career is better than Meech will EVER be. The guy's a run of the mill 7th NHL defenseman/AHL guy. That being said its certainly not a mistake scratching Chelios....i dont know why anyone would feel that way. We're lucky he's still somehow holding on...you dont push your luck by playing him 82 games. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We're lucky he's still somehow holding on...you dont push your luck by playing him 82 games. This can't be emphasized enough, really. Besides it's not like he would've saved the game tonight, even though he does have powers beyond our mortal ken. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
