I was shocked after Philly's come back to won the series!! Wow! Damn!! they were 0-3 and won back to bakc 4 games to win the series! I hope that the Habs will get it and go for the cup! Prediction: MTL in 7 games and Chicago in 6...

Total props to Philly. Good for them

Where the hell did the Habs go?

Probably a situation of playing the last 3 weeks of the regular season like they were the playoffs just to earn a chance to get in, play 2 grueling 7 game series and then run out of gas.

Not sure if I've said this before or not, but...


LET'S GO HAWKS!

Not sure how the Sharks can come back today. Down 3-0 we will see if they just pack it in or if they will show some pride and at least try to get back in this series.

Huge long shot, very unlikely, but you never know.

On a side note, the BHAWKS are a damn fun team to watch. Love how they are playing right now. Exciting brand of hockey.

Props to Philly for putting it to the Habs last night. After they beat my Pens I am glad to see thenm go down now. As was mentioned, looks like the Habs have about run out of gas.

If it ends up being Chi v Philly that could be a great series.

Went to the game in Philly last night. Wore what turned out to be 3 beers or so from the fans and heard some of the most colorful language I've ever heard from what was probably an 8 year old kid. Philly fans showed their true colors, booing the Conn Smythe and Stanley Cup, throwing a beer at Byfuglien as he was skating the Hawks flag, trashing at least one car in the lot with Illinois tags.

What a strange ending to the game. Our seats were actually really good for seeing Kaner's goal, high in the corner on his shooting side. So we had a good angle to see the puck go in. We all stood up, cheering, the little 8 year old told us to, and I quote, "sit the f*ck down, they didn't score". Stay classy, Philly! Glad their fans had to watch the Flyers lose the Cup on home ice.

I refrained from talking shit for most of the year as I had no desire to put any jinx on my team. I celebrated like a rock star last night. Been a huge fan of the 'Hawks since birth. Saw my first game with my dad in 1988 and the Hawks beat the Maple Leafs 7-1 or 7-2. All I can remember was they definately scored 7 and kicked the shit out of Toronto.

Our best chance was in 92 when we swept the Oilers to the final. I couldn't even watch games 3 and 4 of the final on tv because of Bill WIrtz's grip on the team. We got swept, and never returned, until now.


And now that its finally over I can breath a sigh of relief. I have lived to see all of my teams win a title: Blackhawks, Bulls, Bears, and White Sox.
