2014-2015 STANLEY CUP CHAMPION CHICAGO BLACKHAWKS

[Hairyducked Idiot]

Both goals were just sniped. They were shots that if they were two inches the other way (You listening, Gordon Bombay?) we'd be annoyed with them for trying to be too perfect instead of just making sure they hit the net.

 

Not a complaint, just an observation on why I prefer shot attempts to SOG as a stat.

Is there somewhere that lists that stat?

I believe this is it CF- CA?

Correct. Corsi is all shot attempts (On goal, blocked and missed the net), and that stands for Corsi For and Corsi Against.

 

Fenwick is the same thing except shots blocked by non-goalie defenders are taken out, and that's FF and FA.

 

Both stats correlate very, very highly with long-term success.

Well that game flow chart of Corsi definitely looks like how I felt the game went. For whatever that's worth.

Seabs loses a skate and Oduya helps out.

Just for future reference, hover over the video and click on the "chain" icon....this will show you a list of quick copy links. Grab the gif one, as unfortunately there's no way to embed HTML5 video here. Then just put it on here as you would any other gif.

It will be interesting to see how the coaches adjust after game 1 considering the extra day off. There's been a lot of talk about separating Kane and Toews since it "wasn't working" in game 1. While their line didn't score, they occupied the lightning's top pair. Considering the drop off afterwards, I'll take a draw between Toews and Stamkos. I feel like Sharp is due to have a big game.

 

I think they'll wait to play TVR until game 3 where they can shelter him if need be. Cumsikey and Rundblad were serviceable in game one. No glaring need to replace one or both of them.

It sucks having an extra day off between game 1 and 2.

I always find it funny when the hockey analysts try to suggest lines for Q, since he's gonna just put them in a blender anyway. Since screwing up Game 3 vs the Ducks, I really think Q has done some awesome things with matchups.

I know...weird having the extra day between games 1 and 2, and not between 2 and 3 when there's travel involved.

i'm pretty happy about it myself.

[biittner77]

I'm not sure how much blending there will be. 2 of the lines are doing really well. Switching Kane and Hossa or Versteeg with Saad isn't really the classic blender.

[kujay]

Thanks Cumiskey.

[KrisBryantisaBeast]

Really poor defensive effort led to that goal there.

[UMFan83]

Pretty even period overall despite the score

[kujay]

Excellent work by Desjardin.

[kujay]

Teuvo Time!

[Derwood]

This is the kind of game I expected from these teams....more so than what we saw Game 1

[UMFan83]

Dammit. I guess this game is house money anyways but that's a sucky goal to give up.

[Careless]

So did McDonalds find this guy for their ads by telling casting "Fetch us a douchebag!"?

[kujay]

So pretty. They better not overturn this.

[Careless]

oh god damn it

 

what the hell, they're censoring "Jebus damn"

[Careless]

terrifying.
