Chicago Blackhawks 2012 Playoffs

[kujay]

Hammer is the least offensive defenseman in the league. He would do well to remember that. Do your job, bro.

[bcl412]

Fast forward this game to less than a minute left so we can tie this thing.

[kujay]

Some good chances but I'll bet this settles in for a boring while.

[bcl412]

I really try not to be pessimistic about sports anymore but I'm having a hard time not feeling like we'll get shut out.

How much of our offensive ineptitude is on us and how much is Smith admittedly being pretty damn good.

 

One things for sure, the Hawks of 2 years ago would have made Smith cry by the end of the series.

Sigh...

 

I miss that team.

[kujay]

Way too much stick handling. Terrible.

Stalberg is trying his hardest to end his season tonight.

This playoff series really puts a damper on his breakout season, because he's been pathetically bad.

I remembered being down on him after last season too. And checking his playoff line from last year, I remember why. 7 games, 1 goal, no assists and 5 PIMs. He's building a bad rep.

 

Brunette and Kruger are allergic to scoring chances.

[kujay]

This PP is [expletive] horrible!!! Jesus.

[bcl412]

HEY! A GOAL!!! ONE MORE PLEASE!!!

[kujay]

Nice. Great job Saad.

[UMFan83]

Finally

 

Did Q tell them there was under a minute left?

[bcl412]

Nice. Great job Saad.

 

Really starting to like him.

[UMFan83]

The Coyotes block so many shots, but then again that's because the Hawks fling shots right at them. I don't know if they think the shots will randomly go through them, or deflect towards the net, but it seems like a low percentage play at best.

[bcl412]

If there is any time to bury a PP goal...

[kujay]

Alright guys you're due.

[UMFan83]

Dammit, what a shitty way to kill our momentum by getting a power play. I think Phoenix did that on purpose because they sensed we were getting something going

[kujay]

You gotta be kidding me.

[bcl412]

Thought for sure we were getting one there.

[UMFan83]

Leddy you [expletive] you missed an open net

 

this is why we are horrible on the PP [expletive] like this. You don't need a 140 mph slap shot there.

[Smack]

First series to ever go first 5 games OT? Also, they played OT games in the Vancouver series right? How many straight OT games would that be for the Hawks?

[UMFan83]

I know he's a defenseman but you gotta finih that

 

Geez Crawford, it takes you 10 seconds to get up?

 

Hawks now 1-18 on the power play this series. (5.6%)

[kujay]

Man those were some prime chances.
