Blackhawks (36-24-7) @ Blues (41-18-7) - 03/06/ - 7:00 PM

The fact that we are playing tough and physical make this game very appealing.

Defense a bit iffy this first period. Blues really taking it to the hawks and stalbergs not a very good passer lol.



Halak looks hot as shit also. Gotta get bodies at him.



Emery is looking pretty good also.

 

[roshinaya]

A team that has everything clicking for them against a team that has nothing really working well. Could count on one hand with some missing fingers the times the Hawks had some sustained pressure. And does it seem to anyone else that the Hawks have tremendous difficulties to organize an attack, let alone get the puck even out of their own zone?

 

[the canadian dream]

Blues played really well that period. Forechecked the shit out of us. Thats the difference and our special teams were shit compared to the blues.



Games worrying me a bit.

 

[roshinaya]

Hawks are done. Why did I even bother getting up for this shit. Shots 16-6 so far and 3-0. **** you Hawks. Eat shit and die.

 

[Chief Walking Stick]

Sorry but this Blues team is ready for the Playoffs. The way they are playing physically is amazing.

 

[the canadian dream]

If halak can play at the top of his game the blues will be a tough playoff team to beat. I would love to see them play the canucks 1st round but thats not likely to happen.

 

[the canadian dream]

Would just like the hawks to get on the board in the third. A miracle comeback is too much to ask for. Not sure how many third period comebacks the hawks have had this season. I dont think its many. Now would be a great time for it.



McDonald is a great hockey player. These Blues when healthy are one of the best teams in the league. Loads of talent and great coaching. They are becoming my dark horse..if they can even be seen as one.

Well nice shit sandwich we were served there. Anyone on this team want to grow a set and stand up to some of the cheap hits that we took? No. Just as I thought. The Blues know we are soft and exploited it. Oshie, Backes pulling cheap ass shit. Hossa with quite possibly the worst game in the Indianhead. Looked bad for Lepisto. Get ready for the sloth O'Donell to be inserted back in.

 

[roshinaya]

The better team won, simple as that. Blues have a chance to go far this year if they keep at it. I am not one of those that keep whinging about being outhitting, but the Hawks need to get better at taking the abuse if they are not going to give it. They seem far too easy put off their game when the other team is playing hard and physical against them.

I agree with all of that. Shitty passing by the whole team. At least it was a 2-1 road trip but the tone of that game does not make things seem promising.

couldnt agree more. We won the cup having worries about our hitting and eventually guys stepped up cuz the cup was on the line like EVERYBODY steps in some way when so much at cost. Like i was saying in the chat, we just need to play cool, keep our head up to avoid the hits and make them not only look foolish but put out of position trying to be big and bad.
