- I am having a failure to understand all you Roenick (BlackHawk) bashers. Granted, they
- are (arguably) the most physical team in the league. BUT so what. Vancouver is the fastest.
- Pittsburgh is the highest scoring....Some team has to be the most physical. However,
- this physical play DOES allow the Hawks to COMPLETELY dominate in the goals against column.
-
- As for Roenich being a cheap shot hacker. Well maybe he is. BUT I want anyone of you
- to come up with a player who is ALSO as fast; as prolific at scoring; and as physical as
- Roenick.
-
- I have nothing against the Great One, or Yzerman, or Bure, or Selenne (sp??). But during the
- past few months EVERY one of them has been involved in a conversation about needing protection.
- Especially Teemu. Why else did the Jets trade for King and Domi. TO PROTECT TEEMU. Well, I
- would rather have another goal scorer than a warm body on my bench. Domi can play, and so
- can King. But lets face it...there main purpose is to keep Selenne from gettting POUNDED.
-
- Roenick DOESN'T need anyone to protect him. In fact he gets insulted if his team comes to
- HIS rescue. I dishes the hits and HE takes them. He doesn't cry about it.
-
- As far as the Jets game went last week.....you Jets fan obviously are seriously deficient in
- major comprehension skills. (actually there is no insults intended). BUT Winnipeg ALSO played
- a very physical game. AS DO ALL TEAMS THAT PLAY THE HAWKS. Just look around. There is no
- team in the league that will come into Chicago Stadium without a tougher lineup. ITS EXPECTED...
-
- Yet I never see Roenick crying.
-
- ANOTHER EXAMPLE: He was given a game misconduct for Slashing a Vancouver player yesterday
- (Bure I believe). BUT after watching the reply...it turned out HIS OWN player slashing him.
-
- Roenick got a game misconduct on a TRUELY lously miscall. As for Chelios being a rotten
- player...he IS no worse then Ulf...or Wendell Clark...or Phil Housely....
-
- I wouldn't trade ANY of Chelios points for fewer penalties. AND not to mention EVERYBODY knows
- that Chelios has a short fuse. If he gets hit with a cheap shot HE ALWAYS retaliates.
- Other teams know this...They hit chelios in the first few minutes of play in EVERY game.
- Nothing the odds of getting a power-play out of it are about 90%.
-
- Enough said.....this is just my two-cents
