So I have been perusing some NHL/Hawks/Flames boards. I watched some of the festivities from last nights game. I noticed that during the dancing match that was going on over by the benches...The PA system was playing a Rage Against The Machine song(Renegades of Funk)...I dont think Calgary understands what that band stands for.

 

Also after rewatching the incident I am going to change my mind about Burish being suspended, the cross check was on the shoulder. It looked like a head shot when I seen it last night. The NHL may still suspend him though since it was clearly done to set the tone for the next game, which they have come out against this playoff season.

I didn't understand why that was being called a head shot. Had it actually been, the result of the impact would have been much different.

possibly true...sticks break pretty easy though and if it got him on the helmet I could see it not doing much damage. Lucic cross check LaPierre on the face and it didnt seem to hurt lapierre. Of course he was standing still as opposed to moving into his check. Lucic did get suspended for his cross check. If Burish gets suspended it will be more about the time and intent and not the actual hit.

from the trib

 

CALGARY--Winger Patrick Kane returned to the ice for the Blackhawks for their practice at the Pengrowth Saddledome on Tuesday.

 

Kane missed Monday night's 4-2 loss to the Calgary Flames in Game 3 of the Western Conference quarterfinals with the flu.

 

Winger Martin Havlat and defenseman Duncan Keith sat out practice but are said to be just resting.

 

Meanwhile, it appears forward Adam Burish has avoided a suspension from the NHL for an incident near the end of Monday's game.

 

Burish cross-checked Calgary's Rene Bourque and broke his stick in half on the former Hawks' shoulder in the process.

Gonna look for Kaner to have a big one tomorrow. He's been invisible and we can't have that if we expect to go deep in the playoffs.

 

Get it done tomorrow and this series is all but wrapped up!

I can't believe we're even discussing the possibility of Burish being suspended, after the crap that has been let go in this series.

 

I've got a good feeling about tonight. They won't be intimidated by the atmosphere up there, and hopefully will jump out hot. Though I guess they did on Monday too.

 

Is this game on Versus? My directv guide showed two other games on Versus tonight. I hope it is. Then I hope my hotel has Versus. Otherwise I'm going to need a feed.

Directv has this game airing at 10 eastern on Versus. The Caps/Rangers game is set to air at 7 on Versus. If that one ends in regulation, there should be plenty of time to get this game on the air before the puck drops. Versus is going to be uavailable during the Rangers game for me, as it will air on MSG, so I hope it ends on time.

Yeah, I see that has been changed on Directv. Now, hotel, please have Versus. Otherwise I'll be running around looking for a bar in Connecticut.

Call hotel now and ask if they have it. They probably won't, in which case you should scout out some sports bars.

I think we're going to come out pissed and play well tonight. I hope I'm right./

 

Just heard a Burish interview on the Afternoon Saloon on the way home. He said the bad blood isn't over and tonight is going to be a nasty one and one for the ages. This of course after Keenan came out and said the Hawks were making racial remarks which all of the players vehemently deny and Iginla will NOT confirm it as truth. I hate that lying [expletive] head.

Wait. I thought Keenan specifically said that Iginla didn't have a problem with it because it was not racial.

I went into the store and came out right near the tail end of it... and the guys were all up in arms about what Keenan said and believed he should be suspended one game for making false allegations. Never really known Carmen/Jurko/Harry to [expletive] when it comes to hockey, they're pretty objective.

Alright, officially stoked for tonight... who's gonna be around?

 

I am, but I'm pretty tired, we'll see how late I can make it.

 

Yea these late games suck ass.

 

Luckily I had a wonderful day today so I won't be so agitated and evil hahah!

 

GO HAWKS!1

Brian Campbell, anytime you want to show up, feel free.

 

Everyone besides Sharp, Toews and Havlat, you are also free to put a puck in the net and not just wow us with your ability to play physical.

I really don't like this BS the NHL is trying to pull.

 

Basically they "warned the benches" before the games about the scrums/fights. So the REFS are going to "try to send a message" by only sending one person to the box in these scrums. That's an AWFUL decision, what a bad idea.

I don't know much about hockey, so my comments won't be too insightful, but can't resist watching a hometown team in the playoffs. Go Hawks!
