Game 2 IGT: Blackhawks @ Predators 4/17 @ 8:30 p.m.

[Bigfoot]

Back to Chicago, be interesting to see what Q does. Maybe I might decide to show up and come out from the wood line.

Ok I've had my several minutes of fuming...let's go kill them at the UC.

I think Q has suffered brain damage. Rozy should have been benched by now.

 

[Popinski Soda]

Aside from Crow, I think this game went pretty much as most of us expected. Not worried too much.

 

[TCD]

Even I a Crawford defender and fan says that was a pooooooooping of epic craw poooooping.

he looked like shit pregame also he is def on drugs and needs to be traded now. Thanks Ray Emery!!!


I will still take a split to open any series anyday on the road. But that was an embarrassing 3rd period for any team and **** you druggy craw.

I was pretty much full prepared for a loss. If Nashville was even a semi decent team the game 1 outcome should have propelled them to a W. I didn't expect crow to melt down though, unfortunately now I'm truly questioning if he's our guy this year.

The problem is that, although the Preds were down to 5, then 4 D-men, we had 2, maybe 3 D-men tonight.

One bright spot to this game: Patrick Sharp was all over the ice tonight.

Q on goalie situation:
@ChrisKuc: Joel Quenneville said he will start the goalie that gives #Blackhawks the "best chance" to win Game 3.

@MarkPotash: Joel Quenneville on whether he might go back to Scott Darling: “We’ll see."

I think I know who he's leaning toward in G3.

 

[mikita's helmet]

Since Leddy left, and we traded away 2 or 3 of our top prospects, we have 4 solid defensemen - defencemen for TCD - and everyone else is a risk in one way or another. Timonen was not ready to comeback after being gone from the game for so long. Usually agree with Stan's moves, but not sure how much analysis went into that decision.

hahahaha "We'll see" is code for "**** man Cory really fucked my ass tonight I need darling to medicate it"

True, too bad Renne got enough of that shot from the point on the PP to make it hit the crossbar.

Well Q went from "no brainer" on starting crow in game 2 to "we'll see" for game 3 that's a substantial change.

That's also what he said after Game 1.

Neither of Stans deadline aquidtions have paid dividends yet. They were both a waste of picks. we brought em in for this time of year and Vermette hasn't even touched playoff ice yet..

 

[Popinski Soda]

Any update on Weber?

 

[B18]

That's also what he said after Game 1.

The mark potash quote is a little more interesting. Kucs is a general Q statement, haha.

 

[Icculus]

Two words Corey Crawford.

Two more words Michelle Rozsival. Also, Versteeg should no longer play on the 1st or 2nd line if he should get ice time at all and Tuevo needs to play center on the 3rd line and move Shaw back to wing.

I was thinking the same thing. Still think it might be Darling, though, next game. For a man so big, he looked like a midget on Wilson's goal. Crow got left out to dry a few times, can't believe Keith couldn't clear that puck that Forsberg stole from him to make it 4-2, but then the Smith goal goal made a comeback almost impossible. and the 6th goal was just like the Wilson goal.

Both need to be on the bench.
