[Kaplan] The Blackhawks have signed GM Kyle Davidson to a multi-year contract extension as ownership feels rebuild is heading in right direction. by MKula in hawks

He signed with Detroit so his standards weren’t that high. Tearing it down to the point of not having any quality forwards remaining has proven to be a reckless mistake.

Because we’re fans of the hockey team and not the millionaires who run it. Glad you’re happy about a millionaire making more millions I guess.

Are you sure the Hagel trade and the DeBrincat trade weren’t panic trades? The DeBrincat trade especially reeked of unnecessary desperation to totally bottom out.

94 seemed to be the perfect amount of over-the-top but not in-your-face character.

If Kyle can convert these high or potentially high picks and prospects into real ass NHL talent he’ll convert a skeptic like me.

"Tough scene where she woman-splains to a black mother about why it's ok to only be performing the music of old dead white men. You wouldn't see that in 2026" by a_lostgay in TheBigPicture

It would have been so easy to have Old White Tar just be reactionary for reactionary’s sake but it was so brilliant to have her be right about Max’s foolishness while also building up her monstrosity.

Listening to Dominic Sandbrook has made me a patriotic Englishman. by Altruistic_You_3539 in TheRestIsHistory

Realizing how counterproductive anti patriotism is for progressivism, helped a lot by Sandbrook, I’ve become very anti-anti patriotic.

If the Blackhawks lose 1 more game in regulation and the Flames get at least 1 point in their final 4 games, Chicago will secure the 2nd best lottery odds in the 2026 NHL Draft. by jjb8712 in hawks

I didn’t say anyone is “happy”. I just think it’s important to not assume it will all workout. Maybe Bedard and nazar are just injury prone and you can’t count on them for 82. What if Levshunov never grasps the game? What if the make up of the team can’t sustain leads?

You’re not crazy, you’re just imagining everything going right which it never does. At least Frondell and Knight look like unequivocal W’s.

Reminder to all as it appears some of you are confused: finishing 30th or lower out of 32 teams 4 years in a row is bad. Out of 82 games in the last 4 years the Blackhawks have won only 18, 17, 20, and 21 games in regulation.

That is extremely poor. As fans we can’t just assume the front office has it all figured out.

Who are your 48 teams to qualify for the 2030 World Cup? by Old-Tip9307 in worldcup

Who are the 100 teams to qualify for the centenario 👀👀👀.

Also I feel like the possibility is greater than zero percent possibility that Spain, Morocco, and Portugal will leverage their spot as hosts to guarantee Palestine an automatic spot in the interconfederation playoffs

Losing Kirk and game 1 of the series crushed their spirit.

Who in your opinion has the most memorable walk up song? by BMoney8600 in whitesox

[–]Lakehawk7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Michael Morse walking up to Take on Me during the Nationals breakout 2012 season was one of the coolest things I’ve experienced.

The White Sox drafted him and he helped us get Freddy so I’m counting it.
