It was a great period and showed a lot of character. The hawks might just win this series, but man, it should not even have been this close, that's the point. And IF they do win it, L.A. . . .

L.A has their hands full as well, we've seen Niemi steal a game or two before. Aside from that, great win tonight. Now finish this series on Wednesday night.

Home ice is HUGE for CHI, gets Toews away from Zetterberg

Aside from the obvious others... man Bickell has impressed me so much. What an improved player. F'ing huge out there this series.

JJ said his deal is pretty much done. Should have signed him before the PO.

Wonderful irony about that bad call to give Frolik the PS. Maybe there is justice in this league - had to be a makeup call for those 2 goals taken away and all the garbage these lowlifes are getting away with on Toews.

Loved the way Howard skated over to whine after not even making an attempt on Frolik's backhand. All these Wangs trolls have been female doging about Toews talking to refs. Ever check Franzen and Howard after whistles?

That was unsaveable

Probably - even tho it would have nice to see him off of his knees and in position to move to his right into the shot.

But I'll agree with you.

This was Classic Crawford: could have controlled the puck better on the first goal, certainly the second was soft - but a lot of excellent saves, especially after the second goal. Ultimately, gave his team the time to come back and win.

He's given up a couple of softies in the two rounds, but (except for the OT first game in St. Paul) not game-tying or game-losing goals at end of games.

The boys showed some heart there.

Hopefully this carries over into Wednesday night!

For the rest of the playoffs, anyways.

We'll see what happens next season. I'm going to have a hell of a time convincing the missus that Mexico in July is a swell idea.

Kane needs to do more....he has been a ghost.

Frolik and Kruger have been unreal....

Bickell....wish he would've signed that extension before the playoffs started...

It's the playoffs, anything can happen.

They better come out skating like their arse's are on fire because I can just see them coming out and getting outplayed the first 5 minutes because they are cocky thinking they have all the momentum

+1. Anaheim will tell you nothing is guaranteed. I do like the way they played these past 2 games. They should win. Momentum is on their side

Not over yet, but I have to hand it to you: you kept saying how we will get by any matchup. I agree about LA. That could be real tough. Hopefully San Jose comes up big tomorrow. LA has been mortal lately, but Quick is always tough

In your face detroit scumbags!

Overall, CC has proven himself in this year's playoffs, IMO.

please watch more hockey

that was a dot to dot cross ice one timer that was placed inside the post

im by no means a crawford fan, but NOBODY stops that
- FourFeathers773

Agreed ....that pass has to be broken up ....if it connects and is on net its a goal.

Funny. My old man was a teacher and we used to vacation in south Florida in late August. Brutal
