Hawks Tighten Up D, Rewarded With Two Points

A new day and a better effort. The Hawks look fresh after their four days off but still can't find the scoring magic as Steve Mason has turned away all 8 shots the Hawks have fired at him. Pretty solid period up and down for the Hawks, one would think if they continue at this pace they should finally get the result they are looking for, we are scoreless heading to the second period.

So far so good. The Hawks have put together their most physical and all around solid 40 minutes of the season. The result is only a 1-0 lead, but at this point the Hawks are carrying the play and trending toward a victory. Viktor Stalberg created an offensive zone turnover, fed Hossa who made Mason look like Steve Passmore to make it 1-0. The Hawks are outshooting Columbus 19-12 and out hitting them 13-7 thur two periods of play.

Hard work for 60 minutes pays off for the Hawks. Leading 1-0 heading to the third period the Hawks only allowed 4 shots for the whole period. Defensively it was the best effort of the year for the Hawks. On the offensive side of things the Hawks excelled, outshooting the Blue Jackets 32 -16 and carrying the play for the entire game. This should put to rest some angst surrounding the club as two points always does.

NO PICS OR VIDS AGAIN. I WILL BE BACK WITH VIDS AND PICS FOR TOMORROW'S GAMES! PLEASE LEAVE FEEDBACK, HOPE YOU LIKE THE DYNASTY.
