In all seriousness, Hawks/Ducks is going to be serious hockey.  Will that series be held off if both win in 4 or 5?

Hawks have become that team that does not care about the regular season. They always manage to turn it on in the playoffs.


That and getting Kane back.

He was very good. 

Looks like the mythical summit will be on me.

Going to the game tomorrow night to do my best in protecting my interests.  Hoping my lucky MU gear will change the tide.

Having dinner with Mrs chili in the Jack Daniels Grill in the Xcel center. 
Monster buffet. Just polished off 18 shrimp and six snow crab claws. Next is carved leg of lamb and rare prime rib.

Is there a hockey game tonight?

Those last couple minutes were unnerving, but good win for the 'Hawks. Coach Q escaped the mini goalie controversy last round and Crawford looked far more confident these past four games. Love to see the Flames win tonight to guarantee that series goes six. Patrick Kane may have lost the Hart due to injury, but (knock on wood) he might be happier with the Conn Smythe.

Sounds like you may have needed a nap before the game!

Did you and Mrs. Chili stay 'til the end?  I was very concerned after Toews hit the post.  Looking forward to the mythical summit. 

Maybe I'll have one with Chicos if the Ducks do their job. ;D

We bolted after the open net goal.  Probably would have been more agonizing to stay and see them get that close.

I'm heading to Europe in a few days, will miss games 3, 4, 5 and 6.  If there is a game 7, I will be there. I will be at game 2 as well.

We do not match up well with Chicago at all.  Today was a nice result, but we were outplayed.  ESPN's 10 experts, 9 picked the Hawks.  I would be surprised if it doesn't go that way.  Chicago too quick for us, but I love Freddie's calm which gives us a chance.

Incredible game, but I wouldn't go that far as thinking its going 7.

Hawks were the better team most of game 1, and won Game 2 despite being outplayed for large parts of OT.  Crawford is very very dialed in.  I think they take both games at the UC.

Hawks in 6.

Be there Saturday.  Went to bed and had the ear buds in for the OTs; finally out after second OT, but woke up and checked at 3:00am.  Slept soundly for the rest of the night (well, the remaining 2 hours). 

Loved Shaw's header.  I have never seen that before.

I'd love to say 6, but I think it's Hawks in 7.  Nightmares of Kings in last years OT game 7...

Been watching hockey for 40+ years and have never seen a header.

Crazy game, especially the OTs. The Ducks hit a post and two crossbars ... which made me think the Hawks were gonna win on something bizarre. Almost did, but the header didn't count. The winning goal was more "conventional" -- though still a great play.

Babcock is getting PAID at 50 mill over 8 years. I guess the Wings maxed out with an offer of 4 years and 20 million. Oh well, time for Blashill to step up and lead Hockeytown back to the top. I love how he's already coach half the roster and has had nothing but success in the AHL. Another thing is hopefully free agents will want to come to Detroit again. The last few years it has been well known that players didn't want to come and play for Babs.

Exciting time to be a Red Wings fan with the coaching transition plus the new stadium.

Did you make it to the end??  Or at least to the header?

That Blackhawks game was unnerving. While I wouldn't have thought it was over had they lost, it would have been close. This Anaheim team is very good. Hawks really need to hold serve at home. I don't want them to need to win another game there.

A buddy of mine asked me my prediction, and while I hope I'm wrong, I said Ducks in 7.

Getting both in Chicago would be huge.  Really want to avoid Game 7.

It may not work out but don't you think that the league would love Hawks/Rangers?

League would love Hawks-Rangers.

Biggest concern with the Hawks as they are getting the absolute sh!t kicked out of them every single period; only 4 deep at defense, absorbing all those hits and only one day of rest is brutal.

I share that concern. That said, I think the Hawks are appreciably better. Not predicting it necessarily, but winning in 5 would not surprise me in the least.
