And so another Circus Trip concludes and The Hawks come home with 10 of a possible 12 points. The forward lines have been more or less stable for the past 4 or 5 games with three of the four lines actually clicking really well offensively. I guess Patrick Sharp will return to the lineup and screw all that up, ho ho.
There's no shortage of candidates for Big Boy Beltiness after the 4-1 win over The Kings. Richards had two goals but one was a giveaway and the other a simple tap-in to conclude a very dirty series of passes. Versteeg registered two assists but really only one had much to do with anything he did. Crawford was solid for the umpteenth game in a row but does 20 shots constitute a full day's work?
Why not Dan Carcillo, then? He swatted in a dying quail in the first period, handily won a more or less legitimate fight late in the game and maybe he gets a little extra credit for the great pass on Friday afternoon. Also, it may never happen again.
