Re: Chicago Blackhawks 2013 Playoffs

[Guest]

they are making a push, [expletive].

[UMFan83]

Hawks should probably go ahead and score 3rd goal

[bcl412]

Time for another intense last 10 minutes.

[UMFan83]

I'm mad that we have these announcers the entire series

 

This is like having Sam Rosen and Heath Evans all series

Bickell you gotta get that to Hoss.

I honestly don't think they're that bad. But Panger has grown on me since he has classed up the St. Louis broadcast so much. Which admittedly wasn't hard to do.

Ah, a nice, stress-free 1 goal game in the conference finals

I just hate that there's no emotion in their voice...but I've been watching Foley and Emrick all season.

Pang makes me nostalgic for the NHL on ESPN days so I like him just because of that.

[UMFan83]

OK Hossa, no funny business and we can PP the game out.

[kujay]

Omfg there was so much awesome in that last 30 seconds. Bolland you a bad mofo.

[Careless]

that was odd

[kujay]

I hope the league doesn't decide to look at that.

[kujay]

That was awesome.

[Soul]

Incredibly bad announcing. Not one solitary word on the significance of that penalty. It ended the game - not a single word about it.

 

What a fantastic final couple minutes by the Hawks.

[kujay]

I didn't expect us to match them physically. That was to be their advantage.

[Old Style]

Great win. Would love to head to LA up 2-0.

[UMFan83]

Yup I was stunned by that too. I think Kings had a small lead in hits but hawks usually have a lot less than opponents.

[kujay]

@adater: Should be rich if Kings whine on that hit on Richards, with Dustin Brown on their team. Hawks win

 

@Proteautype: For the record, I think that Dave Bolland hit on Mike Richards definitely is cause for a suspension.

 

Whatever. I'll trade Bolland for Richards every day.

[Guest]

Bolland definitely left his feet to make the hit.

[kujay]

Bolland definitely left his feet to make the hit.

 

No question. Principal point of contact will be the key. And whether Richards is hurt.

[Soul]

Whatever. I'll trade Bolland for Richards every day.

 

Well, unless Richards doesn't miss any time. In which case it's Bolland for nothing.

 

I don't think it was dirty, but he left his feet.

[kujay]

He definitely wasn't trying to hit him in the face. But that's not the standard. There again, who the [expletive] knows what the standard is.

 

I'll bet if LA hams it up and claims Richards is hurt bad, Bolland will be suspended.

[kujay]

The Pens anthem singer looks like Harry Dunn.

One mans opinion from Puck Daddy:

 

On the hit, Richards is focusing on a scoring chance, while Bolland is attempting to separate him from the puck, but not before attempting a pokecheck to deny the Kings forward's shot. Bolland launches himself into Richards clumsily and ends up with his back making contact with the chin. It's hard to see this one resulting in supplemental discipline.
