Cross checks at scrums at the net after the whistle all nite - AND BICKEL GETS THE PENALTY?
- StLBravesFan

Time and place man, and it was REALLY obvious. Jesus. They are in their heads!

So what now, boys? Anyone have the answer?

Clean check.
- John Jaeckel

Loved it..wish we'd see that for 60 minutes. But...we're a 'puck possession' team.

DUPED


Not dead yet...lot of hockey to be played.

Not with the mindset of this team. Everything came too easy this year. Worst thing that happened was the Hawks beating Detroit like 6 or 7 in a row. Made them think this series was a foregone conclusion, much like they thought the Wild series was a foregone conclusion and it showed in their uninspired play. Why else would Q say "that game got our attention" after game two. All this BS at the end of the game is the Hawks showing their frustration. Q looks like a friggin buffoon on the bench yelling at everyone. The Stalberg move blew up in his face, the power play has come back to bite them in the ass. What's next? The players start tuning him out?

Crawford is an average goalie at best. Mentally weak. Get over it.
- John Jaeckel

Whatever CC is, he is the least of the teams problems. He is mentally weak. Can't believe he is on the team. I mean, he never gives his chance to win a game. But yeah, gives up a few, team does not score.....again...like last year....and it is all CC's fault.

all the hawks players do is chirp. no offense.

40 shots.

Cleary just said it. Datsyuk's goal was the backbreaker and the reversed call on Shaw's.

Clean check.
- John Jaeckel

Kid has a target on his back. Carbomb jr.

Yup.

Well Babcock puts his best line up out there every nite.


This doesnt let Stanley off the hook either. Any PS3 or Xbox GM woud understand that we the B;ackhawks are weak at Center . NO SIGNIFICANT Acquisitions at C have been made for 2 phhucking years . Thats BOWMANS fault .

All you One Goalers out there realize that this team is all Stan .

Q realy Fed up keeping Stalberg out for games 1 and 2 though.....
- mrpaulish

Get off the ledge bro.... I would hate to give you a ride on the third rail...

Tip your cap to them. They won.
- John Jaeckel

Truth.

The Power Play still suck , disallowed goal changed the game.

That really sucked. 2-2 is a lot different from 2-1 . plus a NO GOAL .

Crawford is an average goalie at best. Mentally weak. Get over it.
- John Jaeckel

So is most of the team. Mentally weak.

Tough loss...but the boyz showed A TON OF FIGHT AND SPIRIT once we scored...hope it carries over.

Tip your cap to them. They won.

+1

Bickell wants to KICK THE LIVING PHUCK out of Cleary...he's been chirping him all game.
- philco28

Penalty essentially ended the game, real big tough guy

Tip your cap to them. They won.
- John Jaeckel

Yep, and got in the Hawks heads. Hawks will be looking to hit instead of play come Thursday and will lose it mentally. Toews, Shaw and Bickell are pretty close to the edge right now.

Whatever CC is, he is the least of the teams problems. He is mentally weak. Can't believe he is on the team. I mean, he never gives his chance to win a game. But yeah, gives up a few, team does not score.....again...like last year....and it is all CC's fault.

He lost two games with horribly soft goals in OT last year. I mean, really?

- philco28

Matt Martin Or someone like that alive ?????

No, the other team';s goalie has been better. Goal 1 and especially goal 3 can't happen.
- John Jaeckel

I don't know JJ. That 3rd goal was top shelf right under the bar.

It was a heart breaker...sure, but it wasn't weak by no means.

Too bad this team doesn't show this kind of physicality when the game is still in doubt, but instead do it to let out all their frustrations. They just look ridiculous at this point. Detroit and Babcock are in their heads and Detroit has to be loving it.

Tip your cap to them. They won.

The Wings were the better team tonight. But the officials were terrible again (for both sides). That call on Shaw (2nd goal) was terrible.

40 shots.

Cleary just said it. Datsyuk's goal was the backbreaker and the reversed call on Shaw's.
- John Jaeckel

Although I am repeating myself, it bears repeating.

- John Jaeckel

CC is a problem but "5+MM players" not showing up , and an unexplainable , terrible, power play is the true culprate

40 shots.

Cleary just said it. Datsyuk's goal was the backbreaker and the reversed call on Shaw's.
- John Jaeckel

But was good does 40 shots doe when the goalie can see 90% of them and you can't get to rebounds.

- DarthKane

Completely agree. And then the Datsyuk goal, the game was over right there.

So what now, boys? Anyone have the answer?

Shoot an inch further inside the net

Do you come back with Emery in game 4?
