Or a Jonathan Toews.... and play with the concussion.</p>

Sweet jesus... didn't this already get settled that he didn't have a concussion? He had a neck injury that produced concussion like symptoms and they held him out as a precaution and then he went to some specialist that fixed his neck...</p>

 

[PatrickSharpRules]

I could see Backes returning for a game 6 or 7. And I am solely going off of what we saw Seabrook do in 2011 against the Canucks. Torres knocked him out badly in game 3 then he returned a week later for game 6 and 7. </p>


 </p>


And I know the hit on Backes was bad, but I am not sure if you could say it was more violent:</p>

oh.... that's what the team doctors "said"</p>

 

[PatrickSharpRules]

Well Backes wasn't on the ice for the morning skate, pretty telling that he won't play. He would at least have to test himself before potentially costing them a roster spot. </p>

Yayyyy...not!!</p>

So you're in bed by midnight max...i still don't see the problem unless your shift starts at about 5:00am or so.</p>


 </p>


It's NHL playoffs and it's our 'hawks we're talking about.  I'd call in with the Hesphaestan Rectal Mites if I had to.</p>

 

[WiHawksFan]

Morrow is out for the rest of the series, and I'm guessing we won't see Backes tonight. I agree with what's being said, he would have probably skated with the team today if he was ok.</p>

 

[Ashor-redtribe]

Thank god for these games and the Hawks right now...this is the only thing that keeps me up from what Im going through right now.</p>

I'm dragging ass... and unlike OT hockey, OT NBA is the worst. Both teams trying to take as much time as possible while trying not to lose. It's horrible... a 5 minute OT takes like 30 minutes because of fouls and timeouts and bullshit. They should play make it take it or something. Or Sudden Death with a chance to match. Turn the clock off.  It's horrible. Much like the last 2 minutes of any close game. Foul... foul... timeout... commercial, foul timeout commercial. commercial, review, replay foul commericial review. shotclock revieownwnlkansdfl;kans</p>

 

[LordKOTL]

Hope it turns around for you Asho</p>

Yea, the NBA needs to have a strict rule of no commercial breaks below the 2 minute mark, barring an extreme circumstance. </p>


 </p>


Full timeouts are generally useless near the end of the game with commercial breaks. I'd have no problem with teams taking a :30 timeout after a quick basket....if the refs were able to enforce it and only have a 30 second break in the game.</p>


 </p>


Hockey does a great job of no commercials until the 13 minute mark in the period and really enhances watching the game in my opinion. </p>

 

[Spunky Porkstacker]

Need to get this win tonite,  down 3-1 = no good. PP needs to score. Get Bickells big butt  in front of Miller and irritate the shit out of him. Get that 1st goal early.</p>

 

[CLWolf81]

I'll take an 8:30 start time here over a 9:30 one from out in the West Coast ANY day of the week.
