Stanley Cup Playoffs

[red]

But the Blackhawks hail from CHICAGO. I think that is in ILLINOIS.
You are asking for an awful lot from a life-long cheesehead.

i love all chicago teams except for the bears

fuck the bears

[Patler]

They're playing the Bruins. A bruin is a bear. What Packer fan doesn't want to cheer against the Bears?

Excellent!

There are few teams I dislike more than the blackhawks, but there are only three teams I hate. Go hawks ( I think I threw up a bit)

SHIT! lost in triple ot at the strike of midnight 4-3.

[Upnorth]

I was not expecting that outta game one. 2 goals in the last few minutes to tie it up, then three ot's. Get outta here

[woodbuck27]

I would just like to point out that the last time the Blackhawks won the Stanley Cup, the Packers won the next Super Bowl. So everyone here should be cheering for the Blackhawks!

Then you've got me going against the BIG BAD BRUINS.

Really !

We're winning the next Super Bowl with three more Blackhawk wins. I'll take all the karma I can get.

GO Hawks !!

Good thing there are 2 days off between Game 1 and 2. Those teams will need it. As is often the case when a game goes deep into overtime, an ugly goal wins it. Should be a great series.

[gbgary]

crazy ass game last night. hated the finish. lol

this is going 7...dammit!

[Joemailman]

Looks like. That game reminded me of when I had Blackhawks season tickets in the 1980's and they had some real playoff shootouts with the Minnesota North Stars and Edmonton Oilers. I don't think we'll see ant more 6-5 games this series.

Blackhawks hold off Bruins, take 3-2 lead in Final

CHICAGO --

" Patrick Kane used his quick hands to lift the Chicago Blackhawks to a two-goal lead and Corey Crawford did his part by stonewalling the Boston Bruins three days after taking heat for actually being on the winning side of a rare offensive barrage in the Stanley Cup Final.

It all added up to the Blackhawks earning the opportunity to win the Stanley Cup on the road for the second time in 36 months." Fr. LINK above

WOW

Pretty incredible ending. When Scotty Bowman says he's never seen anything like it, it probably hasn't happened.

Chicago stuns Boston to win Stanley Cup

By: Steve Keating Reuters – 4 hours ago.


"...with the TD Garden in full party mode, the Blackhawks staged an improbable rally that is sure to go down as one of the most spectacular comebacks in a Stanley Cup clinching game.

Note: Chicago scored 2 goals 17 seconds apart in the final 76 seconds for a 3-2 win.

With Chicago goalie Corey Crawford pulled in favor of an extra attacker, Bryan Bickell tied the game with a tap in from the side of net moments before Dave Bolland crushed Boston's Cup dreams when he drove a loose puck into the Bruins goal.

As the final seconds ticked off the clock Blackhawks players poured off the team bench and tossed their sticks and gloves into the air as the arena fell silent." Fr. LINK above

The last 1:16 of Game 6 is the Bruins' version of 4th and 26. The only way to exorcise those demons is to win it all. It will be interesting to see how they rebound from this.
