If Hawks fans on twitter could stop going "lol sucks to suck,"
Wait, which team with 21 games didn't get out of the first round last year? HMM. But obviously things like playoff results has very little to do with this - see Buffalo and Boston, too. And then Pens have fewer nationally broadcast games this year than last year, despite having won the Cup this season vs going out in a miserable five games in the 2015 playoffs.
My only consolation is that I expect the Hawks to be mediocre at best next year, and they'll have lots of opportunities to suck on national television.
