[Guest The Axe]

Kindl a MAN

[Hockeymom1960 5,107]

I've kind of lost some respect for Hossa.

Brendan SMith does not belong in the NHL, it is so painful seeing him fail at this level.

[Jasper84 333]

I had and still have high hopes for Smith, but wow is he disappointing so far..

[Z Winged Dangler 2,082]

Z ....no, that's MY puck now. Zig Zag

[puckbags 863]

It is amazing how many times Smith has turned the puck over tonight..completely out of his element.

[GMRwings1983 8,793]

Why is Brendan Smith playing instead of White?

Sure hasn't earned it.

[GMRwings1983 8,793]

I agree. We should try to move him while we can.

Especially since Dekeyser looks like the real deal.

[RedLightGoesOn 81]

Non-call on Hossa and some bad offsides not being called on the Hawks. This means we are playing playoff hockey.

[Hockeytown0001 7,652]

The hell was Hossa jawing at Kronner for?

[HadThomasVokounOnFortSt 878]

Haha my girlfriend just asked me if Smith forgot what team he is on and he sucks.

[Guest Crymson]

I think we'll be seeing Ian White next game.

[themcityblues 249]

Smith has got to go tonight. Bad every shift.

[puckbags 863]

Why is Brendan Smith playing instead of White?

Sure hasn't earned it.

At this point I would put White in in a heartbeat. Can't play any worse than Smith is. Hopefully he can turn it around..just looks so nervous everytime he touches it

[GMRwings1983 8,793]

It is amazing how many times Smith has turned the puck over tonight..completely out of his element.

Yet people will keep defending him saying he's young.

He's played a full season and a playoff series, and some of these mistakes he's making are basic hockey mistakes they teach kids.

He shouldn't get a free pass, especially since a guy just came out of college and all of a sudden started outplaying him.

[Guest Crymson]

Haha my girlfriend just asked me if Smith forgot what team he is on and he sucks.

He's playing with a severe case of nerves.

[Holmstrom96 347]

Smith is the new Ericsson. Ericsson is actually playing pretty good, as much as I've loathed him in the past.

[Guest The Axe]

Do not give up on Smith. He will be good. Trial by fire.

[MTU_Huskies963 398]

Yeah ian white should be playing, light a fire under Smith's ass and sit him a game.

[Guest Crymson]

I agree. We should try to move him while we can.

Especially since Dekeyser looks like the real deal.

And he'll have great value after playing a terrible playoffs, right?

[gowings00 545]

Shooting on net is SO overrated.

[dat's sick 1,002]

We are a giveaway machine tonight. More passes to Chicago players than to our own players.

Somewhat lucky Chicago's not got any real rythm going and it's still 1-1. Need to wake up while this game is still winnable.

[26point2 203]

If you are a slow turtle and you are in the middle of the street...what happens?

squish.

[Hockeytown0001 7,652]

SOmeone needs to make a gif of Babcock there.

I want the kid to be a good player but he's too hit and miss. He's missing big tonight. They just dump it in his corner every single time.
