Been thinking the Bears will lose this one, believe we'll see glimpses of what they're heading towards. I've feeling they'll make some mistakes that'll cost them game, from the Packers side not one of those ho-hum we beat the crappy Bears again. But, we won, I'll take it and if the Bears become more consistent our series dominance is over.

Anyone else think the clock struck midnight on the Knights after Holtby made that unconscious save in Game 2? I certainly did, believe the Caps will finish it off Thursday night. Wouldn't be surprised if the Knights regress badly next season, could see them going from No. 1 seed to missing the playoffs ala the Blackhawks.

Bears 2018 Offseason: Matt Nagy Hired as Head Coach
gflore34 replied to Outshined_One's topic in Other Sports
I'll go with an A as well, it's been a long time since Bears' have gotten things correct regarding the offseason, so used to them screwing up, it's strange when it appears they know what they're doing. -
All the sweeter when you add the manner in which they were talking prior and during the bottom of ninth. Their do the players feel the same confidence we do that the Rockies are going to win this game BS. Or, during the inning break, Blackmon, Arenado, Story and more due up.

Maybe not, just saying things have a way of coming back to bite you in the ass. -

so, is McD feeling sheepish after the Denver experience or is he hoping to take over in NE eventually? Perhaps he will end up with the NE Job but, karma's a bitch, wouldn't be surprised if the Colts, with their hire this year, are amongst the better AFC teams. And McDaniels ends up with one of the worse teams in the AFC, not completely unconceivable when one removes Brady, Gronkowski, amongst others from the NE roster. -

Glad the Bears did not attempt to hire McDaniels, don't look now but, Bears may have gotten something right with this new coaching staff.

The Brewers can add all the Cain's and Yelich's they want - the Cubs still have Kris Bryant.
-
They did, cannot put together two good halves, wasn't expecting much from them this season. Probably irrational on my part but, I get the feeling Big Ten teams beyond the upper tier better take advantage and beat them now while they can.
-
All this talk of Charra' greatness reminds of 2010 and the talk of Pronger, apparently, Pronger was going to shut down the whole Hawks team by himself.
-
Don't remember if was posted earlier but, apparently, Toews said something to extent of lets win this game 3-1 between the third and overtime.
-
I agree, very good point, while the Kings are big and physical, they don't have a Datysuk or Zetterberg - far and away two of the best defensive forwards in hockey - to hound Toews all series. I look for him to bounce back and have a better series.
-
Edit: BTW, I'll take it given how that particular Bears game ended Funny he doesn't remember Bernard Berrian getting jobbed by the same call a few years earlier at Ford Field and I believe the Bears did end up winning that game with the Johnson call.
-
I agree. I don't really want to post this in the post victory afterglow, but i don't like our odds that much in this series. Especially hate that Games 1 and 2 are back to back, which I feel like increase the chances that the Kings steal at least 1 of the 2 games at the UC. I look for Toews, Kane and Hossa to have a better series than this one, while Kings are going to come out slugging, there's way to deal with that and take advantage of an over aggressive team.
-
I dunno...the Hawks played quite well in Game 4 and in big stretches of Game 3, so it didn't take me by complete surprise. I mean its always a bit of a surprise when a team comes back from down 3-1, but it was a more talented team with home ice advantage that came back. I saw that as well, it wasn't as if the Hawks weren't being significantly out played, Howard was good but, he had a [expletive] of luck as well. The disallowed goal, the Hawks hitting a post after cleanly beating Howard on at least 4 occasions, the signals were there that a turn around could happen.
-
Perhaps, its just me but, they were all pumping hard for the Wings, couldn't believe Eddie O' commentary in favor of the Wings throughout the whole series.
-
Couldn't be more fitting, officials disallow the second legit goal of the series for the Hawks and the winner is deflected of that dirty POS Kronwall.
-
And there's three!!! All the credit to the Wings and Babcock but, Quenville must be given some credit, true he was pants early on however, he did some xing and oing himself. Love watching FSD, they're doing a little whining about Bolland possibly committing a boarding penalty prior to Seabrook' series winner. But after their cocky talk after game four its awesome. Also complaining about Kronwall being injured after Bickell nailed - Kronwalled even him in game 5, funny they had no problems in 2009 when Kronwall laid out Martin Havlat - I say payback is a bitch. Finally, one of our teams came back from a seemingly insurmountable deficient rip out the hearts of the team and fans that were up. It's about [expletive] time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
There's two, Kane's next, will deliver.
-
There's one, Kane and Hossa are in queue, its coming.
-
I'm trying to be optimistic and its about [expletive] time one of our teams came back from being down 3-1 to win a series. Its certainly happened enough to our teams the other way.
-
Is there really anything in the last three games that would lead someone to think they could win 3 in a row? Game 3 wasn't that bad. Moreover, while Howard has been good, he's also been very lucky, the last two games he's been cleanly beat 4 times only to have the puck hit off a post. Those kinds of things tend to even out and I think they're going swing in the Hawks favor over the next three games. Swing back enough to result in 3 straight wins? Glad if it happens, but I doubt it will. They've been missing on their chances, Howard' come up big a few times but, the Hawks have just missed. The will generate more scoring chances and I think its unreasonable to expect them to keep missing. The will start to bury some of them, wouldn't be surprised if game 5 is a blowout win for the Hawks.

The conciliatory talk is for [expletive], its not over, the Hawks are more than capable of winning the next three, things are very close to clicking.

Toews is the guy you should be aggravated with. He did nothing in the first series. Kane bossed that one, at least, and has at least been on the scoresheet against Detroit. Toews has allowed Detroit to completely take him out of the series. Thank you. In Toews defense the Wings have been allowed to interfere with his progress up the ice throughout the whole series. Haven't been called once for a penalty.
