A pair of late goals -- one scored and the other set up by young phenom Teuvo Teravainen -- have the Blackhawks with an early 1-0 lead in this year's Stanley Cup Final. Tampa was on fire in the first period, controlling nearly every aspect of the game. But the lone goal they scored in that dominant first period left much to be desired, and Chicago was able to catch up with the Lightning by the 2nd period and then worked their way to two goals and a Game 1 victory. It'd be unwise to expect Tampa to take its foot off the gas in Game 2, as they now know what happens when you do that against the Blackhawks in the playoffs. We'll see what happens tonight.

Seems like Versteeg will be sticking in the lineup in Bickell's place:

LET'S GO HAWKS!!!

OMG OMG OMG

It's here!!!!

Hawks 3-1 - Crawford lets in another soft goal like he did in Game 1.

Game two of the sweeeeep. How delightful. I figure with two days off full rest Duncs will be able to play 36 minutes tonight and fight a grizzly bear at the end of the game.

Puck possession and passing awareness has to tighten up for the Hawks while attempting quick exits..

I hate that you're getting up earlier and earlier now.

This is no time to let up!! 1-1 and back to chicago with the pressure to win both is a disaster waiting to happen. We need to take them by the throat, and rip it out. Then snort their blood from the ice like its meth, or your grandma melting. There are ways to put stamps on dynasty. These lightning are likely to be relevant in the east for 3-4 years. Stomp them right now, tonight while we have the chance or face a full scale 6 or 7 game war.

I said Hawks in 6 but winning tonight puts us in a prime position for a sweep.

kinda diggin this 6:15 start time tonight

Shaw bit Hedman (supposedly), neither of them are making any further comments on it and are moving on. I expect things between these two to be chippy as they showed in game 1, but the alleged bite could be an interesting story line. If things get more heated between these 2, hopefully Shaw can draw some PPs for the Hawks and not the Lightning.

Nothing will happen. Shhh.

I got up at 8:30 :dunno:

Why does the game start at 6:15 tonight? Seems like an odd time. Why doesn't it just start at 7 like the rest of the games?
