The Blackhawks lineup change made no sense, especially since Teravainen and Vermette were playing amazing this series. The biggest difference though IMO is the goalies. Crawford has been playing up to his potential (that 2nd goal last night was really soft, but he probably didn’t see the puck since there were people blocking his view), however Anderson has been playing much above that. The ducks can almost get away with constant turnovers (see game 1) cause their goalie is playing out of his mind.
Not sure if I can link pictures from facebook but there is a hockey meme with the picture of Henrik Lundqvist and Johnson captioned with “For every king, there is an assassin.”
I wasn’t a believer before but now watching that top line for Tampa Johnson,Palat,Kucherov. That one line can play spoiler and win games (possibly the cup?). However, I’m still rooting for an original six final!
yeah link those crazy fb images the same way (img)image url(/img) When you click an image URL on facebook, the URL is bonkers, but it still links fine here.
Is it draft day yet?
That’s another thing, the Ducks were basically swarming him since the 1st period for that exact reason, why am I easily seeing this chess pieces into play?
If the Hawks lose this series, the G3 lineup change, lack of power play capitalization (seriously no goals after both a 5 on 3 and a 4 MINUTE PP in the same series?!), “blinding” Crawford and Based Anderson were the deciding factors.
Kane and Shaw just need to start tombstoning and headbutting mahfuckas
I can’t see the Leafs Cup ring that Babcock will have on his finger by then, in that picture.

Did you hear what the twice turncoat Fetisov said?
Hrmmm… Fetisov is the God of Hockey in Russia. I can see this going through, and Russian players not caring at all
Goodbye! Do not return… Trust me. You don’t want to return.

Didn’t stop Federov during the CCCP Red Army days…
front page of the Toronto Sun:
Babcock calls Leafs Canada’s Team. Rest of country angry at Toronto. Our Kinda Guy.
lol Ya. That’s the main way to get the rest of Canada mad at you. Call yourself Canada’s team.
Habs in 93.
Flames in 04.
Oilers in 06.
Sens in 07.
Nucks in 11.
Leafs in… 67?
Don’t need to win cups when you’re raking in billions with an AHL team and one superstar.
Yup. Our owner is an idiot. That’s it took so long to remove Lowe/MacT.
He didn’t care how shitty we did, cause he is still making money.
I blame rig pigs that will go to games no matter what.
I would think any Canadian team is like that. My buddy is from Calgary and he praises the Red Mile and how it’s more or less just an accepted target for incredible public drunkenness. Like, there was that stretch where all Calgary had was Toronto’s hand me down’s, and an old Iginla, yet they still had all those Alberta hillbillies coming down to watch their team of nothing’s get slaughtered.
Good luck going to a Hab’s game and not being French. I’ve seen those got damn frog’s in Philly, trying to start shit with those fucking scumbags.
Almost every Quebecer I’ve met has been a scumbag.
I know some nice ones that live here in Ontario. Hearing this one dude at work try to say ‘mosquitoes’ is fucking hilarious. “WTF you talking about Henri, Muskie Toes? Fish don’t have toes, you stupid frog!”
It’s funny because they actually think the country is bilingual.
every club in qubec looks like the fuckin jersey shore. roided and blown out hair fuckers everywhere.
Exactly.
But the french-speaking Arabs from places like Morocco and shit are the worst.
I swear I want to backhand the hundreds of Blackhawks fans who insist on wearing the St. Patrick unis outside of the damn holiday
