Yes, I know this is the beginning of the season. Everyone is fresh, everyone is ready and eager to play. But you try telling me that losing your season opener in overtime (the game that you hung your banner, no less), to a team that is decimated by injuries; and then having to travel for an away game the following day isn’t taxing.
The main reason I’m all over Chicago tonight is Crawford. He sports an impressive 6-1 record against Pittsburgh. While Chicago lost Panarin to Columbus in the offseason, as well as Hossa to a skin infection, they still have Patrick Kane and Johnny Toews.
If Pittsburgh plays Matt Murray in goal, he will not doubt be a little fatigued. If they play their new backup Antti Niemi, they will be at a distinct disadvantage in crease. I’ve never been a fan of Niemi, and can see him being shaky to start his career in Pittsburgh.
I think Chicago’s barn will be rocking on opening night, and that energy should help propel the Hawks to a regulation win. Dodododododo-dododododododo
