Denis Savard Snaps About The Hawks

[jc790]

Was this after the Blackhawks lost to the Red Wings?

[Vanhelsing8900]

@jc790 no, this was during the 2007-08 NHL season. 

[RivNoTom]

Send to Quenneville. Hit the play button.

[leafyutube]

Yup pretty much all the hockey cliches are in this Savard rant.

[azzorroww]

the early days of kane and toews denis absolutely right you can have skill or not so skilled team but if theres no commitment then it means nothing i heard patty took savy's firing hard go down a few years and the blackhawks have thy're fourth cup and denis still around the blackhawks are a family now before the salary cap detoured  the team into a challenging summer and up coming season no worrys they the blackhawks will stay cmpetitive and nothing will take 2010's cup from them

[samuraijack18]

Hawks STANLEY CUP CHAMPS in 2010!

[aquarocks28]

what brought about this outburst?

[mrfiggins]

@aquarocks28 Mostly Kaner not workin' hard...along with others.



[PyscoJuggalo]

@mrfiggins Wrong,this was about Marty Havlat and his "injuries."

[x0mrgrinch0x]

just go upstairs and get em outa here

[samuraijack18]

COMMIT TO THE INDIAN BABY!!!!

[Kane88andToews19]

Bring him back

[Blackhawks4Life88]

Aah Savard...Never brought us to the playoffs.

[TheHockeyCentral]

AMEN Denis. Nice to see a coach tell it like it is.

[ssssssspps]

didnt know he was there coach. why is the red man red

[NHL09er]

"commit to the indian"

great quote but only that is a native american on their jersey, an indian is someone from India

[ictyme7]

native american is just pc for indian. maybe he should have said commit to the injun?

[amazingfertilla123]

@NHL09er okay w.e. mister who gives a fuck

[chicumbane]

who was he talking about? ruutu?

[cbrugh]

This is way Savy is a Hall of Famer. All players and coaches should understand this message. Savy is a big part of where the Hawks are today. Great player, coach and man.

[Wildfan00988]

I don't blame Savard for this, it just there were lots of injuries!

[spinedoc4U]

COMMIT TO THE INDIAN...Savvy definitely did that.

hawksfansite.ning

[ictyme7]

a great player and coach. very necessary comments then and it turned the team around. too bad they didnt keep him around. love ya savvy, you are a part of this years success whether you are behind the bench or not. GO HAWKS!!

[spinedoc4U]

Commit to the Indian...........great line Savvy

[chicumbane]

homeboy savard made them what they are right now...in the playoff hunt

[Blackhawks4Life88]

It's too bad that he wasn't amazing as a coach as he was a player.

[johnbedtime]

It's too bad he wasn't coaching players who loved the game like he did. You can count on one hand the players today who had his passion.Not to mention the fact that they tinkered with the game so much it barely resembles the game in his era

[parkman35]

Svay asked the boys to commit to the Indian....too bad the Indian didn't commit to him...good luc k Quenville...oh and watch your back.

[Spr463]

I grew-up watching Denis Savard's antics on the ice. He was great to watch.

But you have to realize what Rocky Wirtz is trying to do is make the Chicago Blackhawks a winner again, only this time win the Stanley Cup.

A couple of years ago, Savard would not have been like this as a head coach, but now, he knows about the new era and how important it is to heal the damage caused by "Dollar Bill."

Just wait, the Blackhawks will be an elite team to watch in 2008-09 and beyond.

Thank you Rocky....

[Jatt96]

Well I'm still waiting, same shitty Hawks!

[bhawk61]

Savard and Tallon are not the problem, they are the cure. Its cancers like Havlat that bogged the Hawks down. If you think this spech wasnt aimed right at Havlat, you dont know Hawks hockey. (he did play one of his 30 some games that night) Rocky did a great job, especially in promoting Pulford to a position where he can no longer hurt the team!COMMIT TO THE INDIAN!

[bludika]

COMMIT TO THE INDIAN!

[Nicklin30112]

leo is that you? Go Savard

[kruegs55]

THIS TURNED THE SEASON AROUND!!! The hawks wouldn't have had a playoff run this season if Savy didn't light this fire under their ass. Commit to the Indian!!

[whoabundy]

the hawks will go nowhere until tallon and savard are gone they are the last links to the old man

[bludika]

the hawks will go no where unless you die

[bludika]

yeaha, Denis is a good guy. He wants to bring back the Chicago Blackhawks back to the powerhouse it once was.

[tuckerlovespohl]

Commit to the peace pipe.

[xzist]

COMMIT TO THE MUTHA FUCKIN INDIAN BITCH. booya, savard rules

[bigpapapapa]

tell'em Denis.Listen to the man who is the 1 who created the Savardian-spin-a-rama!!!!!

[lecoach44]

Sorry Big Papa...But the savardian spin a rama was actually performed by legendary Montreal Canadiens defenceman SERGE Savard, not Denis...The phrase was first used by Hockey Night in Canada play by play announcer Danny Gallivan...(The best there ever was)

[Theeggman18]

But Denis perfected it like no other.

[krumsa1]

lolo that was funny

[ChiTownKanerToews]

What is a shame about this? This was needed.

[klammy17]

Commit to the Indian.
