OK this is the most important PP of the season.

They get the next one with anymore than 5 minutes left in the 3rd they can Win this game.

All Im saying is that Detroit is at minimum the Hawks equal, The Faceoff % and TERRIBLE POWERPLAY cancels out high end skill and perfect PKing ..

And those problems have been there ALL year, it's not going to change. They lose this game, and then I think they lose again in Detroit and wouldn't be shocked if they lose Game 5.

So much for Stalbergs all elusive speed. Might as well have stayed in the press box.

Glad Q effed with the team Karma on that whole situation...

Any chance the HAwks get back in the game here ?????

Guys - they need one win in Detroit: they have not been outplayed tonite, can certainly win one.

Well in game two, they were thoroughly outplayed, so you can say that's why the lost. When they outplay Detroit and STILL lose, such as tonight, then this team is in serious trouble. Kane has been a rumor tonight, Hossa not much better. If this team's top players don't become a factor, and they wait for guys like Kruger, Frolik, Bickell, etc to lead them to victory then they are done.

Eddie O calling out the Wings for years of INT plays.

Again, Crawford seems to be the only Blackhawk that came prepared to play.

Are you serious? He went down quicker than a $2 hooker on the first goal.

Replay from last game thread

Cue the 60's team theme...

Here comes the Hawks crappy power play....

and still not score today

Da Da Da...Crappy Power play

I think I'm going to be sick...

Hawks , no speed through neutral zone. Getting out competed for the puck all over the ice again tonight. I have a very bad feeling about this series.

Sure they can but if they go on to lose this game they put themselves in a position that game 4 is a must win and who knows Howard has a great game and stands on his head or some kind of fluke goal and they are one step away from the first tee.

Here's a theme that we keep hearing all game long. Hawks shoot, rebound cleared. No traffic, no net presence, no nothing. This team sucks.

The Red Wings are playing a smart game. They wanted to slow down the Blackhawks so they took a penalty.

Not over yet. Still have a period to play. Get more pucks on Howie!

The whole PHUCKING LEAGUE knows the Hawks can't score on the PP. Not a a secret.

I think I'm going to be sick...

I already am...tense as phuck...angry as hell....we got hosed in G2, play well early tonight, get nothing...then get suckered with two quick ones.

Yep. Wings are good... Especially, when luck is on their side as well...

FAR FROM OVER! Even tonight's game is winnable!

Seabrook should have leveled Nyquist. Very very tough game for the Blackhawks defense.

There is time for sure...but we AIN'T WINNING IN 5.

They are on pace for well over 30 shots, that's plenty. Would love for Toews to actually score like everyone says he should.

On an unrelated note, these Geico commercials with Backstrom almost make me long for the Toews and Kane "let's do this--now it's our turn" commercials on CSN.

Only if the boys come out and play like they did in game 1.

At lease your not married to a Wings fan.
Am anticipating an earful when I come up from the basement.
