Best just to cycle the puck in the defensive zone on the pp for the hawks. At least that won't give up chances</p>

That's our new PP strategy? Who knows, it may save goals against.</p>

 

[the canadian dream]

it was a really strange first period to be honest besides the complete failure of powerplays. Q kind of fucked up Julien with some of his lines there for a bit. Kruger/Toews/Frolik? THat one was strange and I think Julien was like "what the fuck"?</p>


 </p>


Chara continuing to go to the dressing room to get his stitches redone or whatever he kept doing also kept Julien in a strange line matching.</p>


 </p>


Weird period...weird stuff. Think both benches were confused and off to be honest.</p>


 </p>


Ill take a 0-0 road period but some of that shit was ugly.</p>

Didn't anyone fucking have their cell phone camera out during pre-game warmup? I wanna see exactly what this injury to my boy Hossa is all about FFS!</p>

everyone speculating he was hurt in game 2 (shoulder) and was testing it in warm up.</p>


 </p>


Anyways hawks better prep for a few PKs now. Not that this is a bad thing....anything better than the PP.</p>

 

[roshinaya]

Didn't think the PP could be any worse, but there you go...Team owes Crawford dinner.</p>


 </p>


Very odd period and the SOGs were pretty even 11-10 Boston. Hawks got absolutely spanked in the faceoff circles, only managed 23%. Big reason why the PP sucks is that they never get possession on the O-zone draws. The PP crew has absolutely no confidence and this is the result you get.</p>

Toews is failing big time on the offensive circles on the PP. Its his second biggest failure of these playoffs. </p>

Where is everyone supposedly speculating this? I don't see anything on Twitter. I read and saw NOTHING this morning about Hossa looking wonky or iffy in the morning skate---there were pictures and video feed of him looking like it was just another morning skate.</p>

 

[the canadian dream]

here comes the ass kicking.</p>

 

[bookjones]

[bookjones]

[BiscuitintheBasket]

Line?!? We don't need no stinkin' lines

 

[The Mule]

Welcome to the PK hour! And garbage times!

 

[The Mule]

It's too bad they're not very good anymore.

For reals. In the 1st they just played shitty. In the 2nd they're just going Full Metal Fucktard.</p>

 

[PatrickShart]

Mr Shut Down center Bolland had cost the hawks 2 goals

 

[BiscuitintheBasket]

Well, when 2 teams are so evenly matched the difference is going to be mistakes and luck. Mistakes killing the Hawks ATM.

 

[roshinaya]

It's not like Boston is dominating, but the Hawks seem to do all the small things wrong and just don't really seem into it. Toews with a hurt left hand too.</p>

 

[the canadian dream]

no ones good tonight besides crawford.
