On the latest Hawks Talk Podcast Jamal Mayers and Steve Konroyd talk to Pat Boyle about the reasons why the Hawks didn’t make the playoffs and what they can do to get back to the postseason next year.

The guys breakdown the Hawks defensive struggles and what blue liners show the most promise of becoming a number four defenseman.

They also discuss Corey Crawford’s future, the team’s lack of depth at center and ways to improve that sluggish power play.

Also, Konroyd and Mayers give Toews and Saad advice for their offseason in hopes of seeing both bounce back next year.
