Sometimes a Change is as Good as a Rest: Hawks 4, Leafs 0 and Sunday's Big Boy

But, please, let's not let Q think change is indisputably good, okay?

Plenty of worthy candidates for The Belt this evening.  Despite shots being roughly even this didn't feel close at all, and that's with James Reimer waving at two goals and facing the wrong direction for another.  What the heck was he doing out there?  Toews did quite the number on The Leafs' arguable top d-man, as well, overtaking, passing and then standing still to pick his shot whilst Jake Gardiner flailed.  It felt like The Hawks just toyed with Toronto and that's fine with me.

Sharp had 3 assists, Raanta a 30-save shutout, Versteeg scored a beaut and Rundblad notched a sweet one-timer and played a season-high 17 minutes, but Patrick Kane was the straw that stirred the drink tonight.
