    No Toews for a few games. #Tankathon

    If he really has an “upper body injury,” why wouldn’t they just shut Toews down for the remaining meaningless games?

    Personally, I would, but this team is apparently under some disillusion that trying to play their goalie who has a brain injury is a good potential plan.

    This Hawks season… every bit as memorable and enchanting as the Dave Donato era of Black Sabbath.

    Stanley should put Berube on waivers and bring up Colin Delia to see if we can psychologically ruin him too before the season is out.

    There’s no reason to bring Toews back.  Even if he’s healthy in a week.

    Actually, same with Kane. They both should sit the rest of the season.  No reason to risk Kane breaking a bone now.

    Bring up some more kids.

    Unfortunately they don’t have the option of calling up more kids. They can only do that on an emergency basis like they have for Martinson and Hayden

    Fine, play short a man.   There’s no reason to risk a long term injury to Kane right now.

    Plus, if Kane doesn’t play and you’re a man short, there’s a better chance of tanking to a better draft pick.  Win/win.

    LTIR Toews.  Package him with Hossa.  Sell them to the the KHL.  Profit.

    You cannot win in the NHL with AHL goaltending.

    On the heels of the recent Rutta and Gustafsson deals, it’s being reported that the Chicago Blackhawks have now resigned JF Berube to a 5-yr contract extension worth $12.5MM. Chicago General Manager Stanley Bowman on the signing – “We’ve been really happy with our play in the defensive zone this year, and that obviously starts with the goaltenders. JF has really done an excellent job this year since he’s been up. I’m really looking forward to continued success in the D-zone, and JF is really a big part of that future. I like our team.”
