It will be extremely difficult for the Wings to win game 7. Thats why last nights game was so tragic. Its possible, but highly unlikely. And even if the Wings dont win game 7, they sure as hell made me proud. They proved that they can play with the best and the younger guys on the team got 14 playoff games under their belt. That will be huge come the next few seasons.

Holy **** Jonathan Quick, what a save!

 

[ACamp1900]

Yeah, glad he's on our side ( team USA)

 

[calvegas04]

Lets go Kings!!!

 

[GreenSox04]

Quick is unreal, his angles and how quick he gets in and out of them are absurd.

Hope the Hawks win tomorrow. Kings vs Hawks and Bruins vs Pens would be an awesome "final four"

Love all the Pens fans talking about favorable match-ups in the finals. Gotta get past my B's first! Freddy Kruger is coming for you, Pittsburgh, better watch out!

But seriously, should be a great series. Gonna come down to goal tending I think. People seem to forget that the best goaltender in hockey was in net against the Bruins in the last series. As well as Vokoun has been playing, I have to imagine the Bruins will be able to get a few more pucks in the back of the net this series. But the Pens are seriously good, so I'm pretty nervous. Now Chicago just needs to win tomorrow and then the final four teams will be the last four cup winners, which would be pretty crazy!

A former UMass goalie who plays out west would like to have a word.

Can not wait for the Hawks game tonight! Going to be such an intense atmosphere surrounding this game, the Madhouse on Madison is going to be bumping tonight! Hopefully the Hawks can get a quick goal and swipe momentum early.

What a great series between the Wings and the Hawks. The Red Wings blue line is showing their lack of maturity. I think this game 7 will come down to wire.

Go Wings!

That would be a great final four. The last four Cup winners. Wonder how often that has happened in any major sport.

I am still rooting for the Wings to win tonight. I really want the Kings to have home ice in this round.

Torts fired as coach of the NYR.

 

[RuntheBall]

Even if the Wings win, it will be 4 or the last 5 cup winners in the conference finals. Pretty cool.

 

[ACamp1900]

Torts fired as coach of the NYR.

wow...

 

[ACamp1900]

The beard is ready for creampie'n some beaneaters... if the seires ever starts that is...

That sounds rather lewd!

Quick's save on Pavelski in the third period was the signature moment for me. The look on Pavelski is priceless.

Quick has carried this team so far. I really hope our offense can get going in the next round. We faced two exceptional goalies in the first two rounds and it isn't going to get any easier. Our guys in front of #32 need to find a way to put the biscuit in the basket with more regularity.

 

[Grahambo]

wow...

Yup. I'm not against the move but certainly surprised. Everything that I have been reading up on about the situation was that he was going to get one more year. Something apparently changed in the last 24-48 hours. Some believe the players' exit interviews had something to do with it as they grew tired of him.

Names to look out for are: Dave Tippett, Alain Vigneault, Lindy Ruff, and Mark Messier.

 

[chicago51]

So nervous!

 

[RuntheBall]

Where do I even start.... talk about a fukin collapse. I had a massive knot in my stomach when the wings couldnt put away a 3rd goal in the second. They were absolutely dominating the end of the 2nd period and were peppering crawford... just couldnt get another one in... And then to come out and start the 3 rd that fukin soft made me sick.. then on Bickells goal right before that there was an obvious high stick that go missed, just like Kaners highstick got missed. The refs were absolute garbage. That penalty shot call was fuking proof the league wants a Pens Hawks final. How obvious could it be after that call. So much bull. Starting to look like the fukin nba...

end rant...

Go Wings!

You have no reason to complain now...

 

[Wild Bill]

Brutal call.

 

[chicago51]

You have no reason to complain now...

That was awful but the Blackhawks can't look back; THERE IS NO EXCUSES! We have an overtime in a game 7 in our building Blackhawks need to go out and get the job done. Got to put one puck passed Howard and end this thing.

Let's Go Hawks!

 

[no.1IrishFan]

If I was a Hawks fan I'd be livid!

 

[blueNDgold44]

Worst call I've ever seen...let the ****ing players play! Can't believe this ****!

 

[Irishnuke]

Such bullshits.

 

[blueNDgold44]

If the Hawks lose I am going to drink myself into a coma

 

[chicago51]

Seabrook!

I would have been really butt hurt if the Blackhawks didn't win.

 

[Wild Bill]

Free hockey and a hawks win. Life is good.

 

[Kingbish01]

Great game, but Chicago scares me so much less than they did a week ago. Go Pens!
