Pretty uninspired performance from the home side. Hawks seemed pretty sloppy in their Dzone and the Coyotes did a really good job shutting things down once they got the lead. Hawks didn't get much going and the crowd never really got into the game, which really takes away from things in that size of building.

It took me awhile to adjust to watching live hockey again even thought I have likely watched 50+ games so far this year, they have all been from the perspective of a coaches cam (Asides from what I've watched on TV) Definitely a different game when you watch it from that kind of angle.

I did have a pretty stellar seat though, got to sit in with all the brass in their suite right at center ice. Not sure if there is a better seat in the building, quite surreal.

Prepping for my first three in three over the weekend...going to need a good stick on Sunday when we get back from Peoria to unwind, hopefully after a few "W"s.

First game after a long road trip is always dangerous for the home team....Hawks just looked tired to me. Sorry you saw such a stinker, Matt.
