Thank goodness Mike Richards isn't a Flyer anymore with that contract. He is awful.

My man.

Although we are likely done. Down 3-1 going back to Boston...not holding out hope.

I left when the Wings were up 2-0 in the 2nd and came home to see highlights of the B's coming back and winning it in OT. Needless to say I was pretty bummed and to put salt in the wound Lucic scored the tying goal, fuck that guy and his nose.

Havent been this excited for a game since game 7 vs the Wings last year.

This shit is so intense for a first round series. It feels like we are month into the playoffs in the damn conference finals not 8 days in.

As for the East fuck the Pens, Bruins, and to a slightly lesser extent the Rangers (more so because I do like the Flyers)!

Also the Chicago Bulls can't play defense anymore after being the number one D all year.

Credit where credit is due that was one hell of a backhand!

Not the best piece of goaltending from Crawford right there either. It happens though.

I think Crawford was worried about the guy who was set up on the backdoor, regardless the Hawks need to answer and take the wind out of the Blues sail

You need to put these clowns out of their misery. All series just hanging around. It's pretty ridiculous.

Ben Smith has been getting closer and closer every time with that exact same shot. Good to see him bury one.

It's a shame we can't even score when the nets wide open.

The chart not good to see and creepy.

Most annoying part of last three games is that for the most part we've played good hockey (couldn't say that about Kings series) but just haven't had that finishing ability a la Kane and Toews

I saw this on my favorite Hawks board:

2013 Round 1 Blues vs. Kings (defending Stanley Cup champions)
Game 1: Alex Steen scored game-winning goal in OT.
Game 2: Barret Jackman scored game-winning goal.
Game 3: Blues outshot Kings by nine, get shut out.
Game 4. Blues blew 3-2 lead late in third period, lost 4-3.
Game 5: Alex Pietrangelo scored game-tying goal (his first of the playoffs, assisted by Jaden Schwartz), Blues lost 3-2 in OT.
Game 6: Blues lost 2-1, eliminated from playoffs

2014 Round 1 Blues vs. Blackhawks (defending Stanley Cup champions)
Game 1: Steen scored game-winning goal in OT.
Game 2: Jackman scored game-winning goal.
Game 3: Blues outshot Blackhawks by nine, get shut out.
Game 4: Blues blew 3-2 lead late in third period, lost 4-3.
Game 5: Pietrangelo scored game-tying goal (his first of the playoffs, assisted by Schwartz), Blues lost 3-2 in OT.
Game 6: ???



It's got to end 2-1 Hawks, right????



edit- just saw Kpenn already posted this.
oops.

Damn Bruins I was pulling for the Wings in that series!

While I was a voice of confidence when the Blackhawks fell behind 0-2, would exercise caution to my fellow Hawks fans to not assume it is in the bag, though I am confident.

I would love to believe that the Toews goal has destroyed Miller's confidence and he'll go all Bobby Luango on us but seriously doubt it and thus I expect a furious effort from the Blues on Sunday.

PAGING STL, PAGING STL......We have much to discuss in terms of sigs and avis.

I was in this thing but I leave the decision making up to you on this deal.

That 2nd period was an epic disaster for the Blackhawks. Crow was huge!

I feel like a profit as Miller did go all Roberto "Bobby" Luango on us in the 3rd.

We got killed on shots in this game, kind of sort of got out played for most of the game. I think the difference was the odd man rushes, Hawks had a bunch; don't think the Blues had any.

Tough first round series, Blues were tough. Avs vs Wild winner is up next. Avs gave us problems during the season but I just don't think anyone can beat the Blackhawks at their best in a 7 game series home ice advantage or not.

Ryan Miller is so weird, I honestly just don't understand him.

Good job blackhawks, I guess the Kings won't have the pleasure of knocking off the Blues again this season.

Ended up being a huge waste. Ott was the more effective player from that trade. Roll with Elliott and Allen next year and let Miller go to Anaheim.

Lol Sharks are gonna close it out
