 | It's going from bad to worse for Hawks' Huet |
 Tim Sassone
Cristobal Huet believes what's going on with his game at the moment is "just a bump in the road," as he put it.
But to the Blackhawks, it might not be that simple.
This is a team built to contend for the Stanley Cup right now, but Huet's poor start has everyone who isn't inside the Hawks' dressing room wondering if general manager Stan Bowman and coach Joel Quenneville have the goalie to match the formidable talent that is up front and on defense.
If Huet thought it couldn't get any worse for him in the eyes of the fans who pack the United Center after he allowed 3 goals on 5 shots and was pulled seven minutes into last Monday's game against Calgary, it did Saturday night.
Huet gave up 2 bad and team-deflating goals in the Hawks' 4-3 loss to Dallas in a game they dominated for the most part.
The eventual game-winning goal by Stars defenseman Stephane Robidas at 10:37 of the third period was the worst.
Robidas' dump-in from just inside the red line was headed around the glass when the puck hit something, deflected toward the goal, bounced and slipped into the net between the post and Huet, who instead of getting to the post quicker was giving directions to his teammates.

(User Info | Send a Message) | so this doesnt have anything to do with Huet
But does anyone else find it funny that the man who claims that there is an "anti-francophone virus" in the league
is himself a francophone

The Hawks screwed themselves bigtime by giving that retarted contract to Huet. They have to live with it now. No one will have him. Period.
There is a Cambell for Halak + S. Kostitsyn + pick floating around. Not gonna happen since Campbell's massively overloaded contract is almost impossible to trade.
Though gimme a Campbell or a Barker anytime in return of those guys mentionned.
I wish. |
