The Phucks were the better team tonight...it must be hard to summon up the energy, but it seems the aggressiveness needed to beat a team like this can't be put on hold until the end of the game in a potential loss..I admit I don't know that much about Hockey and dont pretend to, but why don't the Hawks have that attitude and aggressiveness on the PP?.. Why not charge the net and maybe get a short rebound goal? Why do they always seem to to try and find a lane from way outside
and waste time passing it around, like when they pull Crawford...Sorry if this is a stupid question, but frustrating as ****! What are they waiting for someone to fucking fall down..damit...

It's because that's what they do. They possess teh puck. As long as you have the puck you just get hit and it's cool. Their a puck possession team, not a goal scoring team. That's the problem.

Man advantage? Awesome, we're even more likely to keep the puck - It'S OUR FUCKING PUCK. If they put it into the net it's not their puck anymore. Don't you watch Blackhawks hockey? At the end of the series the true winners are the ones that have the puck the most minutes. It's the way that hockey is supposed to be played. I know you said you are a noob but wtf? You don't know this simple concept yet?

And that's the most infuriating part, to me, because they just don't have the depth or the talent that the Hawks do. That shouldn't happen.

If its any consolation Craw was good enough tonight to probably move closer to the Lundqvist and Bishop for the BGITW title. Sadly Andersen pulled away in the lead a little more.

There's just no fucking reason for this team to be losing this series.

Yeah, Anaheim is a good team and certainly better than I may have given them credit for at the start of the season.

But too many of the things that are costing the Hawks in this series are self-induced. And now they're not even dressing the best lineup possible.

Was there an injury to vermette or TT? I really hated Nordstrom and especially versteegs games for the majority of the night.

And I guess if you're looking for signs of optimism, I haven't seen the Hawks play anything resembling their best hockey. ****, I don't even know if they've played a good game yet in this series. We know this team can be lightyears better. Figure it out, put together a quick 2-game win streak, then you've got the Ducks on the ropes for Game 6.

Kari Lehtonen, a baby, and an corpse. Maybe, MAYBE Andersen is the best goalie in that group.

Waiting for the postgame press conference to hear about that.

Typical Q in this game. Fucks with the WRONG two lines. He should be tinkering with the top 2 lines and the PP units, but instead, blows up the two most effective lines in the first two games....

I'm still flabbergasted

Shaw goes from great 4th line fwd with the most energy in ot in g2 to worthless 3rd line c in game 3

Versteeg goes from not being missed to a wasted fwd on line 3

Nordstrom goes from an always worthless non scoring threat 4th liner who was benched to a worthless non scoring threat 4th liner

Vermette goes from defensive energy 3rd line with best face off % to the bench

Trevor goes from 2nd best fwd on ot on effective 3rd line to bench

Wtf were these moves all about? I didn't see anybody that played brutal in g2 and needed to be replaced other than timonen and cumisky and we have nobody else left on d
