Dammit, now only 1 point to be gained on SJ tonight....blah. Since we've pretty much locked up the division, and no one really is in danger right now of leaping the Hawks for 2nd, it's a bit disappointing.
-
Dammit. That goalie has made some great saves this period. YES! A power play to end regulation!
-
Enjoy the game, marvel in the fact that the Hawks have the talent to win any and every game they are involve with, but know this that at anytime during the season you win ugly games, and lose pretty games. I don't mind the "over the top involvement" but save it for the playoffs. That's what I do. Partly because the freakin' Cubs gave me an ulcer, so watching hockey is pretty much relaxing for me. I'm enjoying this game immensely. Especially since we've evened up the play.

The only crappy thing about taking it to OT is we would lose the opportunity to tie the Sharks for the West.

The Sharks have dominated us physically in this game, or at least in the 2nd and early 3rd. I like our odds in OT with the 4 on 4 if we can get it there.
-
I didn't think the game was over, but I figured getting spotted a 3 goal lead in the first 10 minutes of the game gave us good odds. I also didn't expect the Hawks to go without a goal the rest of the game so far. But there are some that immediately go into the "sky is falling, lets revert back to being Cubs fans" overreaction when the Hawks coughed up the lead. That crap gets annoying during the baseball season, don't need that overreaction in hockey season, too. A little over the top but we're involved emotionally and the Hawks have given us reason to have extremely high expectations this year.
-
well i dont think anyone thought it was over, but there was reason to be very confident, considering the hawks have dominated the sharks pretty much every time they've met this season (even in the game they lost) I expected this one to be a little different than the previous meetings considering how especially well the Sharks have been playing lately.

C'mon get one through.
-
Fantastic shift by Keith. Too bad nothing came of it.
-
please don't bring your routine into this thread right now the situation calls for it. we look like we forgot how to play hockey. at least wait until after the game The game you already conceded before the period began?
-
I started doubting after the recent stretch if the Hawks were the best team in the West. I was hoping this game would be a barometer. The first 10 minutes of the game looked very promising. The rest of the game has been anything but. But we are on the road and haven't been home for like 2 1/2 weeks. Also San Jose is probably the toughest place to play in hockey.
-
Finally it's tied.
-
We can't get control of the puck to save our lives. I would say 80% of this period so far the Sharks have controlled the puck.
-
If the whole period is like this, it would take a minor miracle to win this.
-
Why are they just dumping the puck every single time they have control in the neutral zone?
-
Awesome stat that the Hawks area 24-1-1 when leading going into the 3rd. I know when the OT loss was but can't recall the regulation loss.
-
C'mon I want this win. As a Chicago sports fan it would make this just about a perfect week. 2 Blackhawks wins, 3 Bulls wins on road vs. West, Rose makes all star team, Cubs make a halfway decent acquisition.
-
I mean it wasn't great but he was in position to make a save until Hossa's skate deflected it. that puck was slow moving and the deflection off hossa's skate was far enough away where he should have been able to react if he saw it. he didn't see the puck, period. i dont know what his deal is with that, but all season he's had trouble seeing the puck. I sound like a Huet defender when I'm not but he was also being screened. My only point was that there have been far more indefensible goals given up by Huet this year. That is one I could see a normal goalie giving up.
-
We've been awful at clearing tonight.

Dammit I want 2 points tonight...c'mon let's get another goal. The Hawks were thoroughly outplayed that period. SJ had 19 SOG to the Hawks 10.
-
Yup, I was waiting for that goal all period.
-
I have a feeling this is going to be a tough kill coming up.
