Normally I don't believe in moral victories in professional sports - they are paid to win - period. However, on occasion a team is so inept that doing something well for even a brief snippet in a game is laudable - a moral victory, if you will. I think the Hawks passing (to teammates) is one such area where if the Hawks were to make consecutive tape to tape passes where both the pass itself and the reception of the pass would be considered NHL caliber - it would be noteworthy and considered a moral victory. I'm willing to set the bar extremely low in this regard where the pass doesn't even need to be on the attack - it could be D2D with no opposing players in the area. If they can manage that - then we can move on to hitting a moving teammate without making him break stride, which with the exception of Bedard and the odd lucky pass by someone else is not seen.
Is that too much to ask?

Is that too much to ask? Apparently it is too much to ask of many on the team. It seems to be the mark of highly skilled players that you can shuffle their linemates and they still rack up points. Kane always amazed me that he could maintain a scoring pace despite who he played with. Bedard is clearly the same. Pair him with consistent quality linemates and wow!

Per Scott Powers, Reichel is a healthy scratch today. I assume Guttman is in in his place? Looking forward to seeing Crevier in some game action - wonder why he is listed at 6'0" on the roster? Hope his uniform fits today...

Hope his uniform fits today... Why is Crevier listed at 6’ 0”? He wears these… images.app.goo.gl/jYgCcozi7qoqX5hC6

Guttman, Reese Johnson and Crevier in Reichel Zaitsev scratched and Beauvillier visa issues The glacial bureaucratic mess to get a visa issued. And while it’s good to see Crevier it’s too bad the other rightie Zaitsev has to sit, he had a good game yesterday.

No BSPN today, gotta watch live with you hooligans.
Reichel did need a day in the stands today, hopefully it shakes him out of his funk.

Ok, I like John Scott in the studio, but do we really need to see every hilight of his career? They've shown his All Star appearance and now fights. How the hell is any of this relevant to that days game?

Good game for Reichel to sit. Minn. hits and is aggressive. Both things Reichel isn’t.
