Chicago Blackhawks 2012 Playoffs

[UMFan83]

Well we got 3 out of 4 points on this Florida road trip.

 

BTW, that's 6 games out of 13 that have gone to OT

[Magnetic Curses]

ugh, damn quick lightning

[UMFan83]

That's just bad luck with Bolland being without a stick. If he doesn't lose the stick, the puck is cleared and we head closer to a SO. Instead the game is over. Their last 2 goals allowed have been wide open.

anytime you're playing on back to back nights with both games on the road, 3 points is a great result.... regardless of opponent.

 

i'm getting a bit concerned about this team's ability to hold leads, though.

So if I don't live in Chicago and don't have Center Ice, is there any possible way to watch the game tonight? It says it is a WGN game but it isn't on my program guide. :?

[UMFan83]

Vancouver sucks all year but gets to the UC and comes out dominating blah.

[UMFan83]

Wow maybe Frolik's luck is changing...

 

LUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

Not good. Vancouver has been dominating play almost the entire game. SOG is in favor of Vancouver 21-9 so far. The 2nd period so far has been slightly better but Vancouver has definitely been in control for most of it. The Hawks goal was a complete fluke and should have easily have been saved as Frolik was against the boards and just tried to flick it on net and it went in. The Hawks have also committed 4 penalties so far to Vancouver's 2, and Vancouver has scored on 3 of the 4 PPs and the Hawks of course not scoring on either of their PPs.

 

Cannot really put into words how poor the Hawks have played thus far tonight, and the scoreboard is starting to reflect that.

Not cool. Sounds like they are a bit Undisciplined right now.

[kujay]

Jesus.

this is pretty embarrassing. not much more you can say about this performance.

[UMFan83]

omg do we look awful. Hopefully this is just a desperate team giving 110% against a team playing their 3rd game in 4 nights, because it looks like the Hawks don't belong on the ice with Vancouver.

i'm kind of upset that they don't seem to care that they're playing vancouver. vancouver obviously is stepping up their intensity for the hawks, why aren't we matching it? come on guys, don't we still hate these goons?

[UMFan83]

Alright, Vancouver commits its trademark idiotic penalty. Hopefully the Hawks can gain some momentum.

[kujay]

Lapierre is an ass.

every time i look up vancouver is on a power play

I dunno, I would guess the Canucks energy is more about the fact that they've started the season 6-7-1 rather than simply playing the Hawks. Just looked it up, Vancouver is on their 3rd game in 4 nights just like the Hawks, so no excuses there.

 

Hawks now 0-3 on the power play, surprise surprise. Anemic PP unit.

[17 Seconds]

pat is right. theyre making us look soft

[UMFan83]

The Blackhawks have converted just 1 of their last 25 power plays. How is that even possible?

i wonder how many goals they've scored in their last 25 shorthanded situations.

[17 Seconds]

you know youre playing like ass when you're 8-2-3 and the boo birds are out

[UMFan83]

1-26. I don't even get excited when the Hawks go on the PP.

the twins are so good

I just looked it up. The Hawks have scored 3 shorthanded goals in their last 28 PK situations, or 2 for their last 26 if you want symmetry to compare to the Hawks 1 for 26 power play.
