I will give you the shutdown D in the first last night, but there are so many issues they have compared to the last 2 seasons that I am not even sure where they start. I am also pretty convinced Toews has an injury that he is not disclosing, he just isn't the JT I have seen the last two years, and I know it isn't a matter of heart or desire.
Skille has great speed and great heart, his hands just need to ctach up with his feet if he is ever going to succeed at this level.

It is hard for me to comment on the stuff last year and I agree that some of the passing was questionable.
As for Morin, I would say that there is pretty much zero chance of seeing him in Chicago to fill a thrid or fourth line role. The Hawks want him to play as much as he can and he will get that with the Hogs.
