Twitter going rampant with speculation that Backes is going to play. Blues take the ice for their pregame skate at 12:30. Guess we'll find out for sure soon.

He better have of gone through some concussion testing.... if this dude rushes back with scrambled brains.... dat aint good.

However, if he really is not concussed then thats good.... lol sucks for us but good for him.

So if Backes' injury was part of the reason Seabrook got his suspension, Seabrook should be coming back tonight.

Why not? The wheel of justice is stupid. They said the fact that Backes was injured weighed into the suspension, and it shouldn't have been about that at all.

No disagreement here fisch.... but you know he woulda got suspended even if Backes had got up and played the rest of the game.... the notion that they would suspend him and then come back and go "Oh Backes is ok, oh then no harm no foul..... get back in there Seabs" just aint gonna happen.

I am there with you on sentiment, I want Seabrook back.... but it aint realistic.

I agree, and I'm not even saying that Seabrook shouldn't have been suspended...he deserved it.

Chris Kuc ‏@ChrisKuc 26m Should be pointed out that just because Blues' David Backes isn't on ice for morning skate, it doesn't mean he isn't playing. #Blackhawks

In a fair world I think he returns in St.Louis and we get the one game disadvantage without Seabrooke. I just want to make it to Chicago game 6 with Seabrook in the lineup. If we can do that I don't care how. At that point its up to us to force a 7 and use our playoff experience to prevail. Tough luck series could easily be 3-0. We should take heart in that and just take care of business tonight.

When asked after the morning skate, Hitchcock repeatedly said that Backes was not available for the morning (aka afternoon) skate. Would not say anything else.

I'm guessing this makes Backes a gametime decision, but that's just my guess.

John Shannon from SportsNet (@JSportsNet) in Canada cites a source within the organization on Twitter:

That is accurate.

I have also heard it is 50/50

I might know more in about an hour or so.

I am going to consume a high dosage of THC via edible for this game, so if I freak out or go on a crazy rant I apologize ahead of time. This game is huge to our potential dynasty!! huge!!! I don't mind losing as much as I want to this team to always be a freakishly difficult out, like lets at least go 7 with 4 OT games. The Blues remember they played us and if they go on to win they point to us as the most difficult series.

I have to say watching the style of Blue vs. Bruins in Stanley Cup would be entertaining, not as entertaining as our style against the bloody blood bath brawler teams, but the double bloody blood bath brawl style has potential for entertaining me, watching players I hate hate each other with big shots. Man, they would get into so many fights I think......lol.....fuck that.....Lets just win 5 cups in a row and only when we are good and ready take our cock out of the leagues ass. "remove cock from ass" spartacus

You got an inside source?

Well like Keith and Toews said of the 'wakey wakey' comment, I will neither confirm nor deny that lol

Sounds like it might end up being a true game time decision though.

Like.... Backes will get on the ice, and if he falls down they won't play him, but if he stays upright they will play him?
