    Wasn't that Game 2? Yeah...that's what I thought. I don't know that Leighton has more in him than what we saw in game 2. i figured it would be brought up and i guess it's hard to say he wasn't good when he only gave up 2 goals, but i don't think he was. he didn't really have to do much. we got some pressure, but everything was right in his chest or wide of the net. also, the game winner was atrociously soft. 2 goals isn't bad, but it should have been 1 and an overtime game.

    That's only because he had a couple shutouts against teams without an attack of their own. Philly has been at their best for three games, it's not all that impressive and they don't have another gear. Chicago has been a bit ho-hum, and they are up 2-1. They should win 2 of 3 again soon. i'm not saying it's likely, i'm just asking "what if?". that would suck, considering he's the main reason we're up 2-1.

    selig should have just sacked up and made a "a play can be reviewed and overturned by the commisioner if it is the potential final out of a perfect game" rule

    i'm worried that at some point the flyers might actually get a good goaltending performance

    let me ask you guys- if you could take a split over the next 2 games right now (putting us up 3-2 with 2 chances to clinch), would you take it? i think i would.

    I didn't watch a good portion of the Nashville series because I was just too keyed up about a first-round choke. I'm thinking about taking at least game 4 off, just to calm myself down. i've thought about doing that too, but i'd never be able to. i'd end up turning it on to check the score after like a half hour and then never be able to stop. i think it just sucked that it had to be an OT loss. a regular loss wouldn't have kicked me in the balls as much. but damn, we were one goal away from being almost a sure thing for the cup. instead, all we have is a series lead of the smallest margin.

    I know you aren't the first to share this sentiment, but really? A terrible umpire made a terrible call that cost a kid a place in baseball's history books. This isn't hard at all. Yeah, but tonight Galaragga is still celebrating one of the best games in mlb history. Meanwhile, Joyce probably wants to go into hiding and die. I'm pretty sure Joyce feels 1937828x worse than Galaragga right now, even if it is his own fault.

    i just can't take another one of my teams breaking my heart again. i just cant

    nah. he played on the second and 3rd lines. he's missed (a good player is always missed) but i don't really think it's been a big factor, considering his replacement (kopecky) has been really good. who knows, maybe the ladd injury actually helped us, since kopecky got a game winner. if he's back, it needs to be burish out. [expletive], even versteeg could be sat, but that will never happen.

    i'm not really crushed about the loss as much as i'm extremely concerned with how we're playing. this series has been an absolute crapshoot so far, when we should be outplaying these guys. it's time to move byfuglien off the kane/toews line.

    all i've got to watch here are the Blue Jackets. can you blame me for not watching much? no. but let me vent. it's the first stomach punch moment of the postseason so far. i don't know what do with myself

    you barely even watch hockey. why don't you just let me vent

    the flyers played the blackhawks 90+ times this season? highly interesting not to mention philly wasn't healthy until recently this is the stanley cup finals, this is not the regular season.

    i feel like you guys are confusing game 1 with something else. do you not remember how atrocious we were in the first 2 periods? do you not remember all the turnovers and atrocious play in our own end. the only reason we won game 1 was because of michael leighton

    Because the odds of that continuing are most decidedly not in the Flyers' favor? why? if they've played with us for 3 straight games, why is that so likely to suddenly change? i think it's time to start accepting that the flyers are playing as well as us right now and that this is going to be a dog fight. i really don't like this whole "oh, we're way better than them even though it hasn't shown at all for 3 straight games, we've got this" attitude that a lot of hawks fans have going on right now. i thought chicago fans would know by now not to get cocky

    this wasn't their worst game of the series. it was their best probably. and right now, the hawks are not superior. these teams have played evenly for 3 games now. and the hawks have won twice, so you should be thrilled that they have the lead in such an evenly contested series why would i be thrilled that the hawks are playing poorly and letting a team that should be worse play evenly with them? because despite playing poorly, they're leading the series. if they play as well as they should be playing, they'll win the series easily yes but the series is almost half over now, and we still haven't played that way.

    this wasn't their worst game of the series. it was their best probably. and right now, the hawks are not superior. these teams have played evenly for 3 games now. You think this was the Hawks best game of the series? We aren't watching the same games then. It was the Flyers best game and the Hawks worst. did you not watch game 1 at all? i mean, seriously.

    we're being overly negative, sure... but why do you act like that would be so crazy? these 2 teams are even right now. the flyers could easily win 3 of 4
  23. 17 Seconds
    i think we're more concerned that we're not outplaying the flyers when we should be.

    and [expletive] vertseeg for airmailing a wide open shot over the net in OT. what a joke of a game for him.
  25. 17 Seconds
    oh, and [expletive] you q for the horrible line change.
