What makes any prediction illogical? It's hockey. This isn't like the NFL where if I were to say "The Pariots will face the Cheifs 10 times this year and lose every time"  Teams are a lot closer in skill in the NHL. But I guess if a team starts out the gate strong, they're indestructable. I'm sorry for thinking some good teams might give the Blackhawks a hard time over the next few weeks. God, I feel so crazy. 

Do you really think that or are you just wishing it to be true? What I find odd is you say you see them beating Vancover... but that's because you need the Hawks to beat Vancover for the Wild. It's suspicious that you think they would beat Vancover but not San Jose(x2), LA, or Anahiem. Anyway, Blackhawks take 3 of the 7 and maybe a tie during this homestand.

My logic for that is all in if Vancouver starts Luongo or not. Chicago tends to do well against Luongo but he's been doing good for the Nucks lately.
