Homer Alert! Likeable? Really? You must not know any cab drivers then lol.

Anways, I think it's odd that they'd put a Hawk on the cover 2 years in a row. (Even if they are "likable, good, fast and very young.") I'd prefer to see someone unexpected on the cover like Drew Doughty.

Well actually no that is what everybody in sports say. That the Hawks have the best sweaters. Not to say other teams don't have cool ones also. I like the Boston ones & the Sharks to name a few, but it's something about the crest that people love. It was voted best logo in hockey just the the Chicago Wolves were voted the best ahl logo. Btw thanks for agreeing with the other stuff.

Ahhh come on everyone knows the Hawks will be gutted minus their big names in two years..

Lol at the poor Leafs fan who wanted to see Luke "Overrated" Schenn on the cover

I have no problem with Toews on it, though I was hoping for a goalie. The Goalies need some love in this game. Miller would have been perfect for that in my opinion.

Well all I can say is have you met him? Cause if you haven't then its kinda rude to stereotype him for 1 incident which he even admitted at the rally that he won't do again. He made some mistake & yeah he's young but hockey players are actually the nicest of all the sports. Now I know this cause I have met a few in my time & they were class acts. I would even think Pronger would be nice if you don't provoke him. Like the saying goes you get treated the way you treat people. Kane said he has learned from his mistake. I would think most people who met him probable had a good experience, but I don't know that for sure.

Now, I'm not mad about this because I'm a Flyers fan, it's just a little bogus that it's two Hawks in a row.

Why not, as stated before, a Ryan Miller or (homerism) Mike Richards..

Dude he attack a cab driver. I don't need to know him. I work with kids like that. He is spoil little baby. But it is not is fault, when people kiss *** your whole life, you get this self entitlement feeling. I know a lot of famous athletes and musician and it is all the same, but it is what it is. It is all good, we agree to disagree. I am sure he will grow into a great man, but when people kiss your *** it is kinda hard to break that entitlement feeling. But I am done with this. I don't want to get this thread of track. I was wrong to say that about Kane. Any way the game looks real solid.

I'm 50/50 on this. Two blackhawk players in a row.... bleck. Johnathan Toews... sweet.
