Description
Definitely a tough game but the Hawks are not out of it. They were still in the game up until Crow’s mishap. I think the silver lining is that we still haven’t seen the best of Crow and he’s still keeping us in the game. He’s the type of goalie where he can turn it on and stand on his head, even against McJesus.

I do think we need to tinker with the lines a bit, I’d go with the lineup below.

The Kubalik-Toews-Saad line looked fine so I would keep that. The Debrincat-Dach-Kane generated a couple goals so I think that one probably stays as well. That leaves Nylander-Strome-Caggs. Highmore took a couple absolutely brutal falls into the boards at some points, so I wouldnt be surprised if they put Hagel in for him for a game.

They're definitely not out of it. I don't think the box score accurately portrays how well they played last night. They don't look like a 12 seed; they look like they belong.

I’d keep the Kubalik/Toews/Saad and Highmore/Kampf/Carpenter lines together. I’d bump up DeBrincat to the second line with Strome and Kane, the Hawks need a line that can be dangerous each shift. Dach’s line has been tasked with shutting down Draisaitl and he’s done well so far. Dach and Caggiula should remain together, but I would be hesitant to put Nylander there, that line needs to be defensively responsible. Maybe try one of the scratches?

I personally think not having Caggs hurt us a lot more then what it seemed.
