Blackhawks Update (3/9/10)
Jake Gonzales
Niemi will start against the Los Angeles Kings on Wednesday March 10, 2010.
Well it looks like Blackhawks coach Joel Quenneville has had enough of Cristobal Huet’s performance as a starter… for now.
Tomorrow’s match-up against the Los Angeles will feature Antti Niemi as the starting goalie, and let’s all hope that he does not have the same stuff as he did against the New York Islanders. The Blackhawks lost that game 5-3, and Niemi did not have a good game by any stretch of the imagination.
If Niemi does not step up the Blackhawks owners might starting their grieving process for not making a move by the trade deadline.
“He gets a chance to get back in the net,” Blackhawks coach Joel Quenneville said after practice on Tuesday. “Let’s see how he responds.”
Yes. Let’s hope he does.
