'Hawks are on their 1st 3 game winning streak of the season, getting a delayed bump from the change at Head Coach. They dropped their 1st two games under Sorensen, but, now sit at 3-2-0 with him in charge.
I am unsure of the starting lineup, as both Seth Jones and Peter Mrazek are activated off of IR. Soderblom has been solid in net, hovering around a 0.910 save pct, with a very green defense in front of him, but, has suffered from non-support.
Offensively, The duo of Mikheylev getting fed by Teravainen have been white hot over the last week. Bedard has scuffled some, as the 'Hawks have not settled on line mates for him. Hall seems to have woken up, after getting a healthy scratch, a few weeks ago.
The 'Hawks seem much more competitive under Sorensen, but, the roster still is not very good, IMO. They have started to stick in some youngsters to the top level, to see what they can do in the NHL. Nazar, Korchinski, and Allan, have gotten significant minutes, since their recent call ups.
Looking forward to hanging in the GT with my friends here at CP. Not a lot of expectations for my guys, but, they HAVE been a more entertaining watch, lately.
