[17 Seconds]

yeah, i think we're done

[Soul]

I won't truly panic unless it goes 3-1 for the series, but certainly right now I'm concerned.

Niemi is playing so well, he doesn't deserve this.

 

And is it possible for Sopel to be minus-infinity? What a turd.

[Magnetic Curses]

we aren't pressuring the puck anywhere, they have 5 feet of space to shoot that puck in.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

*season over* clap clap clap clap clap

 

 

I'm telling myself to remember how they were down 1-0 and two goals in game two against Calgary. But blech. They can come back, but we're three games into the postseason and the odds are already against the Blackhawks winning the series. Against freaking Nashville.

This series is going seven. What a [expletive] joke.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Four goals in 7.5 periods against this team. That's just awful.

[Burtonbell]

Upset in the first round? Could it be? Ugh, it's not looking good now. The offense is going to have to step up and the defense is going to have to show up finally.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

This series is going seven. What a [expletive] joke.

 

I hope it goes seven.

we should be thrilled if this series gets to game 7

[Magnetic Curses]

they are choking the life out of us with their ugly, boring game.

[kujay]

I can't believe it, but I will turn this off if it goes to 4-1.

[Magnetic Curses]

need a goal before the period.

Niemi is average at best. A goalie is the most important position in the NHL, akin to a QB in football. And you can't win a championship with an average goalie unless you have a world class defense. Bowman was on the Score last week and said he was totally comfortable with Niemi and never was tempted to trade for a goalie. Now he might have wasted a great season.

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Take some freaking risks and start to bust this trap. I'd rather lose 9-3 than 3-1.

[kujay]

And I'll be the first to say it, I guess, but if this is truly a "system" thing, it's the Hawks' job to adapt. And that means the coaches. If they go down, Q can't get a free pass.

1) Watch the series.

2) Comment on Niemi's play.

 

You are doing it out of order, apparently.

FAIL.

 

Putting this on Neimi is wrong.

[chuckywang]

Adding insult to injury, a Cubs promo in the middle of this disaster.

[kujay]

[expletive] Sopel is useless.

This isn't Niemi's fault. The effort that we've given for the better part of two games has been an embarrassment.

You don't think Soriano is going to blast his way in the city that never sleeps?

[Hairyducked Idiot]

We're pressing like crazy. Desperation setting in. We are going to give up some odd man rushes, but it's the chance we have to take.

[kujay]

Just get one in these last five and then it's a game.
