Went to the game last nite and it looked liked a carbon copy of the last 4 games I attended. We are getting pushed off the puck against the boards every game and we can't get it out of our own end and as a result the puck ends up in our net. Robinson's line completely dominated whoever Drulia sent out there last nite to match up against them. Our passing was horrible and the lack playing physical is just sickening. I thought Drulia said this team would be bigger and faster and more physical... WOW WAS HE MISTAKEN! Someone also mentioned a while back that Cory Stillman was going to lead the league in scoring... That is not going to happen.. The man has a hard time skating and an even harder time passing the puck. We have to many guys that are not going to score on this team... Stan better start looking around cause if he keeps this same roster we are in trouble. Ditto..100%

Have to mention also what a pleasant surprise Mike Kinnie is.. I was very skeptical when they signed him but watching him game after game the man can put the puck in the net..... Yes he may carry the puck to much and might not pass coming out of his own end but the end result is he is the only one that drives to the net.... As a result he is getting rewarded for his efforts.. He could of easily had 4 goals last nite. PLEASE KEEP IT UP... MAYBE IT WILL RUB OFF ON SOME OF YOUR TEAMMATES.

Everyone needs to settle down a bit----if they are playing their worst right now then that doesnt say much for Muskegon's best now does it??? I mean the game was tied 3-3 and the Hawks were without Lardner. Sure they have some things to work on, but this team has too many good core players to just fold up. I think it is way too simply put to say they always get outworked in the corners---this team has done better in the corners than in the past. I mean against Bloomington we didnt get outworked in the corners---we had 49 shots on goal and several of them were quality chances. DRULIA is pissed about their play because he knows they can and should do better. We dont need new players.

Kinnie does look good...the only thing with him is that if he's going to cherry pick he needs to haul in any puck that gets close to him..he lets too many bounce off his stick or get by him.... he's also -5, douchbag and robinson are around +7 each.

We dont need new players. we played like crap..bottom line. we're being outworked and out muscled, the lumberjerkoffs pounded us last night...no one in the league is afraid of bray, he's a non factor. we didn't take advantage of that pylon Ndur, he was out for all of our goals but we should have scored everytime he stepped on the ice and he logged alot of icetime for some odd reason. that guy has to be one of the all time piece of crap players to lace 'em up in any pro league. he's just plain 'ol lousy.

I thought Bray was doing a good job out there for what kind of hockey player he is. He at least has a little skill and doesnt hurt the Icehawks taking a regular shift. It is hard to find an enforcer that other teams fear and one that can contribute to your team. I think the Icehawks do a good job of sticking up for each other though such as when Gershon dropped the gloves after that BS hit on Lardner during the Bloomington game. I still like this team though and think they have a real chance of winning this league. Omar--what players do you think need to go if changes are made?

Muskegon controlled the play for most of the game. We had 14 lousy shots after 2 period.. Muskegon played their backup goalie to boot.... That should not happen in our barn... They did it to us last year in the playoffs and NOTHING changed last nite. We have 2 veterans spot we can fill... Lets begin the search! Rolls and Bowman have shown nothing.... With all the vets we have on defense we should be better.

Omar--what players do you think need to go if changes are made? i'm not for dumping players just to dump them..depends on what we have lined up to add. Rolls has showed me nothing..he needs to get stronger and meaner. Stillman hasn't shown us much..especially after all the hype from some people in here. Vern is off to another slow start..as usual. the chemistry just doesn't seem to be there...they all might be great guys and good players but it's just not working as a "team" yet. IMO we need a scrappy little SOB that can piss off the other team but back up the crap he dishes out. This would get us out of the doldrums that we seem to be in.

I had kind of forgot about this, but Jason Selleke is still on the roster. What is up with him? Couldnt we replace him with someone like Jeff Zehr? Maybe not Zehr in particular, but he gets under other player's skins and can back it up too. This is probably not an option considering the Hawks traded him last season. I guess I'm just not sure why the Hawks are hanging on to Selleke when he was hurt most of last season too.

You mean after the 3rd time they took a cheep shot at Lardner? What took them so long to "stand up" for Lardner? That's what I want to know.
