then get him to show up for more than one game in the finals.
Yeah, I know that was a bit much. However he does have more points this series than Hossa and Toews and the same amount as Kane.

What are you guys thinking for tonight?

I have a feeling that if the Flyers win tonight they are winning the cup. Hossa is too much bad luck.

:stupid:


He's not been that impressive overall, unfortunately.
It'll be interesting to see what happens tonight in terms of matchups with the Flyers having home ice and the last change.

That line juggling of Quenneville was very effective at the end of Game 4 and all through Game 5. Will Laviollette have an answer for those changes in Game 6?

Who'll shine in net tonight? Leighton or "plywood pads" Niemi!?? That dude uses the stiffest pads in the NHL!!

That penalty on Hossa was bull****. Pretty goal by the Hawks 4 on 4 though.

Chicago quit attacking and it cost them. They were letting Philly break out with not nearly enough pressure. They played way too conservatively for only having a 1 goal lead IMO.


It's ok though, I'm not complaining about more hockey to watch.

What a great game.

Kinda a chump goal to end it but it was exciting. Plus the Flyers lost at home in OT.

Have fun JohnE

Chump goal?

In OT you gotta put pucks to the net - Kane got free, and fired that puck by Leighton. Great goal. Great series.

Congrats to the Blackhawks - the future certainly looks mighty bright in Chicago.

Front Range, dude...
Exactly. Gotta shoot to score. Especially on a tense, inexpereinced 3d tier goalie in an OT game with that big trophy on the line.
All things being considered, Braydon Coburn and Scott Hartnell would look great in Hawks uniforms...

What is Scotty Bowman's role with the Blackhawks? I think I may have known about him being with the Hawks but forgot, but then there he was on the ice last night celebrating. Damn that guy has been through his fair share of cup celebrations that is for sure.

congrats to the hawks, well played post season.

Scotty is some sort of sr. advisor of some sort and his son is assistant GM or something.

Scotty has been a part of a lot of cups, the man knows hockey.
