Finish this one and get an early lead in game 6 and the Canucks are going to start pissing themselves.

duncan keith is having the game of his life tonight

Leddy is really skating tonight

Everyone is playing well. Scott is serving a purpose, but for the love of god he needs to just give the puck up when he gets it.

Not sure how he's went from being a complete corpse to this but keep it up.

Torres just knocked smith out of the game

what happened to smith? didnt catch it just saw him walking to the locker room

12 goals in 5 periods? Holy s***.

 

At least there's a good chance this series goes 7 now. Good to see the Hawks on a roll.

here comes vancouver gooning it up

Duncan Keith is trending worldwide on Twitter.

Edler may be suspended for a couple of games with the elbow to the head.

 

Alright John Scott go have some fun.

 

Ben Smith back on the ice and he looks to be looking to make a run at someone.

i would call it a night and go to bed but the third period is going to be a wild one so i think i'll stay up for this

Lapierre with a 10 minute match I think so there goes most of the fun

Got to figure the UC will be rocking like none other on Sunday. I think we have re-invaded Luongo's head, too, which definitely bodes well for us.

Not to be outdone, Crawford is beasting.

Good to see the big boys show up today, especially Hossa. I've bad mouthed Keith a lot this year, but he has turned it around the last few games. Crawford quietly just taking care of business, again.

 

 

 

 

I've thought almost all year this was a mediocre team that never could overcome it's losses from last year, and had a group of core players tired from the regular season, playoffs, and in some cases olympics last year. Now, I wonder if maybe I was wrong, and they were merely a sleeping giant with a Cup hangover that lasted 85 games. We'll see in the coming days, I suppose. It's clear they're back in the Canucks head. The Hawks would be best suited to stay there.

Words cannot describe my disdain for Alain Vigneault and his group of f***ing goons in Vancouver. I even hate the Red Wings less. At least they have class. Torres, Bieksa, Edler, Kesler, Lapierre, Glass, Burrows, Raymond. Ugh. And don't even get me started on their fans.

 

I'd love nothing more than to come back from 3-0 to beat Vancouver and absolutely shatter the hopes and dreams of all of Vancouver for the third straight year.

 

Luongo starting game 6 in the UC. Keep it going.

It's at times of adversity that you see the true colors of people. We could very well be seeing the true colors of these Blackhawks right now. Obviously, they have the heart. Bolland coming back was an incredible boost, and the resurrections of Marian Hossa and Duncan Keith are simply orgasmic. They haven't even peaked yet. Toews and Kane are playing better, but still aren't quite there. Campbell has been contributing MUCH more on both ends of the ice. Leddy is growing into a legit d-man in front of our eyes. And Corey Crawford is just doing work.

I happened to miss what made Bolly get the game misconduct. What caused him to get so angry?

Didn't see the game, but judging by the highlights, Torres hit him in the head when he was by the boards. He just came back from a concussion so you know he was pissed. I honestly think that no suspension changed this whole series around (well.. that and Bolland returning). It's not over yet, but the Hawks are playing with an edge to their game.

He only got a unsportsmanlike conduct for whacking his stick on the boards and yelling at the ref. 2 min.

 

He was understandably pissed. Here was the hit Hamuis hit to his head. He was kind of pushing his head into the glass with is arm. If you want to see the video, it's at the 1:31 mark.

 

 

 

 

This game easily could have been 9-0 if not for some great stops by luongo and schneider. Sharp 2 breakaways. Toews I think had a couple. And the Hawks laid back offensively in the 3rd. If I'm upset about anything it's that...this was the game where Scott could've dished out some payback and he didn't. Still an uphill battle, but this is the series I was hoping for when I thought Bolland would be back. Obviously, I didn't expect this offensive onslaught, but I expected better games on both sides. I have no doubt if Bolly was back for any of the 1st three, the Hawks would have won at least one of them. Anyway, Canucks have a couple of days to let it fester...They'll be ready Sunday, but if the Hawks can deliver the first blow, it's on!

Refs handed the game to the Hawks with no offsides calls on Hossa. FYI
