  1. the blackhawks won the stanley cup
  2. and that's probably why the rumor was created.
  3. I find it funny how willing so many are to blame Leighton, considering he had about the 2nd best save percentage and goals against average in the playoffs, and it could be argued quite easily that he outplayed Niemi. i think that would be a weak argument. leighton was flat out awful in the finals. niemi was average at worst, and stole game 2.
  4. a lot of those people probably didn't care about the hawks 2 months ago, but still cool to watch.
  5. well he just achieved legend status for me. knowing the physical nature of the flyers (and of a series like this in general) that takes serious balls
  6. Even more amazing considering how bad the Hawks were at faceoffs the entire year last season fixed
  7. Seabrook and Hossa were the two best Hawks, for at least the last three rounds. with toews, yeah. i think those were the hawks best 3 players overall in the playoffs. a few other guys who stepped up but wont get much attention- sharp, bolland, sopel (yeah, sopel)
  8. Poor Kyle. He was given a week off because of his behavior the past week. aww. can't you unban him early? i want to hear his reaction
  9. where the [expletive] is kyle?
  10. i have a new background on my phone http://images.cbssports.com/u/photos/hockey/img13502294.jpg
  11. i meant to mention this is a few days ago, but i don't think seabrook has gotten enough credit for his play in this postseason. i think he was hands down our best defensemen throughout the playoffs. very few turnovers or mistakes, and he was a complete beast physically. soooo many hits. keith was fine, but he just makes so many turnovers in the defensive zone. seabrook was almost flawless for the past 2 months.
  12. i heard it on my way home. i don't know a lot about the blackhawks radio announcers, but it was pretty damn close to how i would envision ron santo reacting to a cubs world series. how quickly did they realize it was a goal? was there a confused delay like both tv broadcasts?
  13. i hope it's the one where ross and phoebe almost do it on a pool table
  14. he played well in this series and helped the blackhawks win. so pronger played half the game and played solid defense against your top line, and committed a few penalties that allowed your team to score power play goals. he didn't hit anyone dirty or injure any blackhawks players during the entire series. chicago fans would have booed anyone on the flyers who won the conn smythe because that player would have played well and hawks fans would be upset that their team didn't win. just admit that there really isn't a difference between fans of most teams. it's okay, you can do it. watching conn smythe trophy presentations on youtube would suggest otherwise
  15. how perfectly fitting is it that kane gets the OT winner in the elimination game and toews gets the conn smythe? those were the 2 guys that started the turnaround of the organization, and tonight they ended it
  16. just watched the replay off malkin winning the conn smythe in detroit last season and yep, very little booing
  17. what would have happened in chicago if the flyers won game seven and chris pronger won the conn smythe? if your answer isn't "booing" then you're a liar. except that jonathan toews isn't a huge douche that is hated by everyone in the nhl nice comparison though lol, well assuming that everyone thinks pronger is a huge douche and hates him (which they don't, but clearly you don't know anything about how the rest of the players in the league view him) then replace pronger with danny briere and let me know what hawks fans would have done if he'd scored the overtime winner. toews didn't score the ot winner the point is that booing the conn smythe winner is weak when that player has given you no reason to boo him
  18. Niemi didn't have any great games in the finals, but he saved our asses twice. Once after they tied it and once in the OT. Amazing saves or we would be pissing our pants about Friday night. i wonder how carter feels about that chance he missed
  19. what would have happened in chicago if the flyers won game seven and chris pronger won the conn smythe? if your answer isn't "booing" then you're a liar. except that jonathan toews isn't a huge douche that is hated by everyone in the nhl nice comparison though
  20. joel quennevile can't coach in the postseason? - gone curse of hossa? - gone patrick kane can't play in the playoffs? - gone niemi can't win a stanley cup? - gone what else am i missing?
  21. btw, kudos to philadelphia for showing your true colors during the postgame. booing the conn smythe presentation? just great
