2014-2015 STANLEY CUP CHAMPION CHICAGO BLACKHAWKS

[UMFan83]

Come on you can't lose this Hawks

[UMFan83]

Wow! What a surge!

[kujay]

Ha, never in doubt.

[UMFan83]

Nashville 103 (78)

Chicago 102 (78)

St Louis 101 (77 playing now)

[UMFan83]

Wow Blues and Stars combine for 4 goals in 49 seconds and 5 in 2:49

[Guest]

47 seconds

[kujay]

That's a good game down there. Go stars.

[kujay]

I've heard Blues fans grousing about Elliott lately. Hot damn.

[kujay]

Well thanks Dallas. And I'm sure they will have nothing left in the tank in Nashville tonight.

 

Just realized the Hawks game is at 6:30 tomorrow, directly opposite the baseball game. That was stupid.

Meh it would have been nice to see the stars win but we have 2 of our last 4 against them. If we take care of business we will pass them

[kujay]

Really I'd rather just avoid them in the first round. It's such a mess though I'm not sure if winning or losing those two games would accomplish that.

nashville lost in ot. tied for first with a win tomorrow. if it's an ot win, there's a 3 way tie.

[UMFan83]

Unfortunately Nashville is pretty close to locking up the tiebreaker but it would be nice to see us tied

[kujay]

Fuckin yeah Hoss!

[kujay]

A good argument can be made that Desjardins has been better for the Hawks since Vermette since they came to the team.

[UMFan83]

It I really don't want a St. Louis sweep tonight

[kujay]

Well that was shitty. Got outplayed.

[UMFan83]

Well that was [expletive]. Got outplayed.

 

Yup, looks like we are locked into the 3 seed now

 

Not officially of course but this was a damaging loss to not even get a point

[Guest]

all i care about now is not getting st. louis in the first round. blew a golden opportunity tonight.

[biittner77]

I hope the Blues win the division and have to play the Wild. That gives the Hawks home ice as long as they're still in the playoffs- provided the Kings do what they always do in the playoffs.

Yeah, but again, losing to St. Louis helps with that objective also.

[Brian707]

First time since February 2010 that the Blues won in Chicago in regulation. I would prefer the Blues win the division and we play Nashville. Not that I don't think the Hawks can beat the Blues in a series, it would be nice not to go thru another grueling series with them.

[kujay]

Some great games tonight. Conflicted about the Jets-Blues game tonight. Want STL to win the division but want the Jets and Flames in playoffs over the Kings.

 

Also, big game in Ottawa tonight vs. Pitt. Love this time of year.

Forgot to read the summation over at the Committed Indian the other night, probably because I was frustrated. This pretty much reflects my feelings:

 

That’s the Blues first regulation win on UC ice since February 3rd, 2010. Enjoy it, dickheads.

 

Anyone who still maintains that Crapford/Crawstink cannot be trusted needs to get Clockwork Oranged with the Stastny breakaway just simply playing on repeat as their eyelids are forcibly held open. That sequence should be on any Saves Of The Year montage in a fair and just world.

 

This Rozsival thing could not have been more perfect on the day that Quenneville doubled down on him as “his guy” after practice. Unfortunately there aren’t a lot of other options at the moment given TVR’s shutdown, and now Kimmo Timonen is day to day after getting hit from behind by Ryan Reaves, playing only 3 minutes this evening. Were the Hawks not down a defenseman already and were he not in the circle of trust, literally any other player would have had his ass stapled to the bench for the penalty Rozsival took. His ire at the ref looks only more laughable in retrospect. Giving the Blues too many looks on the power play is always tempting fate even without Steen and Tarasenko.

 

Rozsival is literally killing this team and has been for months. He could easily cost you one or two games in a tight 7 game series.
