The Hockey Writers Chicago Blackhawks writing crew discuss the team's lack of effort in recent games, Patrick Kane's comments, and the Rockford IceHogs sweep of the Chicago Wolves. They then play a game of "keep it or leave it" where they talk about sitting Erik Gustafsson, Seth Jones and Calvin de Haan on the top pairing, keeping Dylan Strome with Patrick Kane and more. Finally, they give recognition to Jakob Galvus, Kirby Dach and Seth Jones and give out some Valentines in the Shootout Round.
