The Hawks come through again tonight, despite a depleted blue line. In fact, 2 of the Hawks 4 goals came from defensemen tonight. One a SH handed effort for Shaone Morrisonn.
With Steve McCarthy still in the box serving a 4 min detention for getting his elbows up on Derian Hatcher, Stu Barnes apparently took a step stool out on the ice with him, climbed up on it, and gave Hatcher another taste of his own medicine. I think it was the stool that got him the 5 min instead of just a minor infraction

The Hawks found themselves defending a 5 on 3 for 56 seconds. KILLED. Then the rest of Barnes time was on the clock. With a minute left for the short handed Hawks, Richards caught the puck and swept it out of the zone to some Jokinen. Jokki spoted a streaking Morrisonn and the result went up on the scoreboard.
Andre Meszaros snuck into the lineup even thought he was given the night off to heal his mysterious injury. Good thing he did, as he managed a point in his 6 minutes of play.
The Hawks look forward to a night off, where Mesz can heal, and Oduya awaits a visit from the ratings fairy. Then off to Montreal for a game with the Habs.
