Chicago Blackhawks 2012 Playoffs

[17 Seconds]

Kane called for roughing after the horn. OF COURSE.

 

espn.com says it's toews.

 

no penalty for assassinating hossa, but 2 minutes for a face wash

Kane called for roughing after the horn. OF COURSE.

 

Kane for roughing?

 

Is that the only call?

We updated the Hossa post with video of Phoenix Coyotes announcers calling it "as clean a hit as you're going to get"

Thats what the Blackhawks tweeted.

[Butterscup1679666578]

you know, considering out whole offseason plan was to "get tougher", you'd think they'd have someone to step up and drop the gloves right now and try to get the team fired up

 

It seemed like Q shortened up the bench a little second half of that period. Two most likely guys to kill, Mayers and Bollig, seemed to be the odd men out.

 

Go up 2-0, get them back in for the kill.

 

I'm major meatballin'. Total agreement. I want a blood pool on the ice.

 

I'm so far past being a meatball that we need a new word for it.

[kujay]

Yeah apparently we are getting the only penalty. So some 4-on-4 and then a PK.

 

In a scrum like that you even it up if anything. I think in the regular season in games like this the refs give out penalties to try to keep the game under control. This is too important for them to be lazy.

And then after watching the replay 2-3 times clearly showing Torres leaving his feat he says "Yeah, I don't have a problem with that hit"

 

Holy [expletive] a-hole

[Butterscup1679666578]

Hawks Twitter correct themselves, it's Toews.

"and the coyotes have the set the tone physically early in the game, once again, for the third straight game"

 

coyotes are like the new marlins

Stupid penalty by Kane. You had a power play.

"That's what happens when you cut to the middle with the puck"

 

Wait what happens, you get blindsided with an malicious illegal hit?

He's like a bad guy wrestling announcer.

[kujay]

So, when does Dave Bolland join the team?

[UMFan83]

Man, why do we have so much trouble clearing the puck?

[17 Seconds]

horrible clearing attempts all series

[kujay]

Man, why do we have so much trouble clearing the puck?

 

Johnny Oduya is hot garbage.

[17 Seconds]

Man, why do we have so much trouble clearing the puck?

 

i guess thats why they kept icing it in OT of game 1

[UMFan83]

So, when does Dave Bolland join the team?

 

Maybe he's trying to repeat last year, when he literally didn't appear until game 4

[UMFan83]

stop turning the damn puck over in your own zone you idiots
