08-09' Blackhawks (46-24-12) 104 PTS - 4th Seed In The West!

[Cynosure]

Lighting are going to be well rested and get up a bit more to play the Hawks. I hate to underestimate the terrible southeast divison because on any given night they can put up 5-7 (or 8 if you're Atlanta)... luckily their defense is Garbo.

 

Huet in goal tonight, Niemi likely to play Sunday as it will be 3 games in 4 nights starting Thursday.

 

I have to miss both games this week due to my Paramedic class :( Thank God for TiVo, but it's not the same.

 

Hawks win 5-4.

[Cynosure]

Wow TB's already crappy defense is even worse than I thought... Niskala has been playing in Sweden for awhile and Malik is out with a lower body injury.

 

This might be an easy win... hahahahah.

 

Eminger-Smaby

Krajicek-Murphy

Melichar-Wishart

 

Worst defense in the NHL?

Let's hope the Hawk forwards aren't looking at it that way.

 

Have you seen who is taking Sharp's place in the lineup? Just Adams? I took a quick look around but couldn't see where anyone was being called up.

yea no one has been called up, I think they want the call-up to get some practice time

[Cynosure]

Artyukhin scratched, thank God for EVERYONE on our team

What's with the dark jerseys on the road?

[bcl412]

We might get 20+ shots this period.

[manbearcub]

beautiful!

[salukifudd]

Bad defense, but still a beautiful play.

[bcl412]

Bad break

[17 Seconds]

wow they better not lose this game

[kujay]

Do we have a goaltender out there? I'm sorry, I couldn't tell.

[17 Seconds]

unbelievable. stamkos has been trash all season. we're outshooting them 28-12 and are going to lose because of a penalty.

There you go again. OMG HE'S HAVING A BAD GAME

[bcl412]

What the hell's going on out there?

Kerry ROYmo, as cyno would say. I hate games like this. The hawks are thoroughly dominating but are probably going to lose because of a penalty and a fluke performance from a garbage tender

[salukifudd]

Well, we are lucky the refs saw the instigation.

[17 Seconds]

KANE?!

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Wow. I got home just in time to see Havlat have glue on his stick or something.

[17 Seconds]

omfg havlat. that was ridiculous

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Toew-zer.

 

Beautiful shot.

[17 Seconds]

Before tonight the most SOG the Lightning have ever given up in a game was 48. Hawks have 49 tonight.

[bcl412]

The Hawks have played great tonight. Even when it was 3-1 I was confidant. Once the Hawks got that late 2nd period goal I had a good feeling they were going to win.

[17 Seconds]

That should have been a penalty shot, but whatever

[bcl412]

That should have been a penalty shot, but whatever

 

With an empty net wouldn't it have been an automatic goal or has that rule changed? Or did it ever exist?
