Blackhawks 2010-2011 season

[UMFan83]

Apparently, Bieska was waving "goodbye" to the fans at the UC after his 3rd period goal gave Vancouver a 3-2 lead.

 

Yep, goodbye UC, hello Vancouver for game 7

[UMFan83]

Haha, Vigneault: we've got home ice, that's why we wanted the best record, blah blah.

 

 

Yeah right, you in no way wanted to even come close to playing a game 7 at home after winning the first 3. Don't even start with that crap.

 

Home ice did wonders for them in game 5

What happens to Luongo if he chokes in game 7 and gives up 4-5 goals? Seriously, what do you do? Take him to a sports psychologist?

 

This Hawks team has no business taking this talented of a Canucks team to 7 games. It's all between the ears.

 

He's getting shipped in the offseason if that happens.

The Canuck fans will never forgive him. All the pressure is on 7unogo.

[bukie]

The Hawks are the 7th team in NHL history to force game 7 after being down 3-0. Previous teams are 3-3 in those game 7's.

How many teams want a goalie who chokes in the playoffs and has 11 years left on his contract? He has a no-trade clause too.

Maybe he'll get shipped out Huet-style.

[Magnetic Curses]

tell me more about ben smith. he was the most outstanding player in the ncaa tourney last year? wow, the guy has been a nice little present in the playoffs thus far.

I'm sure Eastern conference teams would like him seeing as they wouldnt see the Hawks until the Finals

[UMFan83]

Looks like we would be playing SJ if we won on Tuesday, correct? Unless SJ blows a 3-1 lead, and then we'd be playing the Wings.

 

I absolutely cannot believe I am even considering the possibility of round 2. Who'd a thunk it?

[bukie]

Now both teams have won 2 games and stolen one each. All that's left is for Toews to join the party with a hat trick or something Tuesday.

Crawford is amazing

 

Seriously....we don't win that without his fantastic saves in OT. Maybe he wasn't standing on his head, but he was under constant attack in the OT. Canucks just choked..simple as that

 

Crawford was outstanding but if Johnson doesn't come back and tip that pass on the 2-1 breakaway, the Hawks are done.

This is true. When I saw the puck rebound off Crawford in that direction, I put my hands over my face, thinking it was over. Huge play. That and Leddy getting his stick on that shot on the Canucks 4 on 2 a short time before the goal.

[Garwilly]

The wife and I went to Nashville game 5 last year, and just got back from tonight's game. Who is springing for some airfare?

[17 Seconds]

even if they lose game 7, i'm satisfied with this season when you consider everything.

[chuckywang]

Back from a bar watching this game. Amazing hockey game, one of the best I've ever seen. The crowd was rockin! Tuesday is going to be so much fun.

[UMFan83]

Canucks fans are stupid.

 

They are all bitching about the break in the action with just under 10 minutes left to clear up the ice. There aren't supposed to be TV timeouts in OT, and they think the refs just randomly granted one just for fun.

 

I thought these guys were supposed to know hockey? One the first stoppage of play after 10 minutes left in OT, the ice crew is supposed to come out and clean the ice. It happened last year in the Sharks-Hawks game (game 3, the game where Buff scored the game winner), so its not some brand new rule they just made up on the spot.

 

They also think the Hawks got away with murder in the game, but that's expected.

i'd take him.

[soapy]

I thought the season was over when they blew the 5 on 3 (again). Wow.

 

One more, fellas.

[hawkeyecub]

Hossa was invisible all game and then finally made a Hossa play to keep that puck alive and set up the last goal. That was absolutely beautiful.

 

I have no idea how they won that game.

You know I love to stick it to the Canucks, but there have been some well-balanced opinions coming from their fan base as well.

 

Yes, there's the hysteria and general butt-hurtedness that comes with blowing a 3 game lead, but it hasn't been all bad.

They won because God does not like the Canucks.

[hawkeyecub]

I thought it was definitely over when Campoli went down trying to keep the puck in their zone in OT which led to the 2 on 1. Thank God Johnson got on his horse and disposed of that rebound with a wide open net.
