Another young team with great talent, but a team that is getting ahead of itself. Just like I said in the thread about the Bruins, I’d take Detroit, San Jose, or Anaheim to feast on the Hawks in a 7 game series, with little remorse. Chicago would have to be reckoned with, no doubt, but in back-to-back games against Detroit you could see the immaturity of the Hawks both in their tempers and their tactics. If you frustrate them for 3 or 4 (or more) games…
