Good series, Blackhawks fans. Despite the outcome, you have an awesome team, and Toews and Patty Kane are awesome.

Wait, what the hell - why is Crawford not at the net? They didn't even have a 2:00 minute penalty box countdown when he went out, did they?

Sometimes when you're down a goal or two late in the 3rd period, you can bench your goalie in favor of a sixth skater to give yourself a better chance of scoring (with greater risk of course)

Also a goalie usually never goes to the penalty box. Not sure which scenarios they can

You can pull your goalie to put an extra skater on the ice (6 on 5). Teams do it when they're down late to try and get a goal fast.

He was so disgusted by the Blackhawks' last 3 games that we went to the locker room and threw up.

Well also this

Time to take the Blackhawks bandwagon to the offseason thread

"playing" dumb? unpossible
Ugh, LA/NY final, Bettman must be so excited.

I feel sick to my stomach that I'm going to have to cheer on the Rangers. Not because I dislike them or anything. It's just so hard to root for the guys who just beat your team. Barring a Habs comeback miracle that is, or a Hawks if the Habs fail.
 
Hawks, please, you need to take this series to game 7

It won't happen. Simple as that. The series is over. No point in even watching the game Wednesday. It'll just be a repeat of the last three games. Q makes stupid ass decisions, players can't pass, Kings score without any effort and the Hawks collectively scratch their balls on the bench. I'll be another 4+ goal game.

Awesome team? No, not even fucking close.

When sports writers get fucking lazy with their stats:

USA Today said:
The four teams remaining in the NHL playoffs have gone 12-0 when facing elimination this postseason. They are tough outs.

What? The teams that haven't been eliminated yet haven't lost an elimination game?! GET RIGHT OUTTA TOWN!

:lol well you could see it from the angle that they have actually collectively faced quite a few elimination games, which is maybe unusual

the way it's phrased is stupid though

I think the point of it is that they've won that many elimination games, not that they haven't lost one.

Edit: Whatever zro fuck you

It would be dark times if Dustin Brown ends up hoisting a second cup. Hope you guys don't show up to the final dance, and it turns into amatuer hour out there.

Yup, same here

I guess, but the two teams currently facing elimination haven't played in any elimination games yet, have they?

Edit: Scratch that, Habs have played 2. For some weird reason I thought that series only went to 6 games

I hung a Habs shirt on a dumpster in my development.

My gf thought it was very amusing, despite being a Quebecoise, but I chickened out and removed it an hour later. Being the only car with NY plates here I figured it'd be pretty easy to figure out who did it and mess with me, lol.

At least I got a pic!
