April 28, 200916 yr QUOTE (ChiSox_Sonix @ Apr 27, 2009 -> 02:03 PM) Brashear suspended 6 games. Ridiculous. He had one game coming automatically for making contact with a player during the pregame, which is what Andre Roy got suspended for during the Hawks/Flames series. Plus as a guy who has already had a suspension during this series, not to mention all of his other suspensions, going out and doing what he did ... well you get what you deserve.
April 28, 200916 yr Cant believe Matt Walker is playing after breaking his finger in Game 5 on a slapshot.
April 28, 200916 yr Hawks close it out ! 4 games to 2. Final score 4-1 . Khabbly 43 saves. Buff empty netter and 2 assists . One to Burish ! Kane with a rebound goal. Campbell with his 1st goal in 50 games. Go Hawks !
April 28, 200916 yr :headbang :headbang Got tickets to Game 4. I can't wait. Looks like we're going to be play Vancouver since the Ducks are up 3-1, but whatever.
April 28, 200916 yr QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Apr 27, 2009 -> 09:00 PM) 3-0 on the Campbell goal here in the 2nd period. Hawks making the best of their power play opportunities. Buff is playing awesome right now. Gotta give a lot of credit to Pauhlson for that.
April 28, 200916 yr Khabby was absolutely dominant. The defense did a phenomenal job overall. Just a great overall game.
April 28, 200916 yr What an incredible last two games for the Hawks. That is how you answer the bell in the playoffs... Bring on Vancouver!
April 28, 200916 yr I can now erase the JR/Murphy memory watching that late night game against Calgary when I was 12. f***ing sweet. Round 2, ding.
April 28, 200916 yr First time in what... 14 years? Loooong overdue. Haha.. Toews and Kane tryin to sport the playoff beards.
April 28, 200916 yr HAWKS F*CKIN WIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HAWKS WIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
April 28, 200916 yr Author Such an awesome day it was yesterday for a franchise that's been so bad for so long. What an awesome feeling. Any more advancements is a bonus to me.

April 28, 200916 yr QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Apr 28, 2009 -> 10:21 AM) This is not the mentality you should have. I don't think that's a negative attitude. I felt like this year would be a success if the Hawks made it to the playoffs and maybe won a playoff round. They've done that, exceeding my expectations as far as conference seeding is concerned, so I also feel like anything now is gravy. That in no way means that I don't want them to win now that they're in the 2nd round - personally, I want a Stanley Cup full of "gravy". But if this is where it ends this year, I don't think it's been a bad year in any way.....other than the Brian Campbell message board pissing matches....
April 28, 200916 yr QUOTE (The Critic @ Apr 28, 2009 -> 11:34 AM) I don't think that's a negative attitude. Oh, I didn't say it was a negative attitude, I just think this team has a lot of hockey left in it, and though I'm happy we got this far... I crave much more.
April 28, 200916 yr When does the next round begin? I know there are two more matchups that are 3-3, so are they awaiting those to finish before releasing the dates for the next round?

I crave much more. OK, cool, I misunderstood then. I'm a little nervous because I think Vancouver is much better than Calgary, but I'm excited because I also think they've got a lot left in the tank. Khabibulin seems to finally be the guy the Hawks thought they were getting, and they went out and closed a series on the road, which is huge for confidence. DARE TO DREAM!!!!
April 28, 200916 yr I think the Hawks can hold their own against Luongo as long as we see the Khabi of the last two games. There will be a lot more open ice in this series which bodes well for our boys.
April 28, 200916 yr I'm a little nervous because I think Vancouver is much better than Calgary From what I heard (though Jeff, Tony or others can chime in a bit more on it) they are bigger, stronger, faster than Calgary. Don't they got those Sudin brothers? Heard one was hurt though. We can definitely take them, but we do have our hands full.

To be honest, I think we'll do fine against Vancouver. They barely held off the Flames in their division, and only have home ice because of stupid rules that division winners get the top 3 seeds. Just because they are the 3 seed does not mean they are better than the Blackhawks... quite the opposite in fact. Hawks in 6. Edited April 28, 200916 yr by Steve9347
April 28, 200916 yr QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Apr 28, 2009 -> 04:42 PM) Hawks in 6. You practically called the Ducks over the Sharks, So I will gladly take your word on this. Edited April 28, 200916 yr by rangercal
