I just don't think Philly can take 4 out of 5 from Chicago. Boston was Boston...a decent team, but not on the level that the Hawks are playing at right now. First 10 minutes of the game should be very interesting.

I might have to break out the Rick Tocchet Jersey

Montreal did all the heavy lifting in the Eastern conference. If not for them knocking off Washington and Pittsburgh, Philly wouldn't be playing now. Their goaltending is very below average. Barring the collapse of the century, it's the Black Hawks Cup.

Use a chamois instead. It'll do a better job of getting all the wax off your car.

Bump..

I'll stick with this.

Flyers brought it tonight, that's for sure though. Different game Friday

1 down 3 to go. Great game again, better outcome finally for the flyers. I don't see this ending in 5. Hawks fans are really confident even though every game has been decided by 1 goal. Great series so far.

I started watching with 9 minutes left in the third. Byfuglyalien was acting like a timid little b.itch.

Great game. Both teams looked exhausted at the end of regulation.

i think leighton is getting a lot of breaks... 2 crucial posts in the first, only saw the first 2 goals by both teams and thought leighton let in some softies (especially the sopel goal)

the most important question is, who got the puck at the end of the game?

It has been a great series regardless of whom you're rooting for. Finally a final with end to end action and no frigging trap.

Aren't you glad this guy isn't covering the Cup.

bring it boys..kane and jt will be heard from tonite!!

I'm taking the Hawks +105
50/52.50

Hope I don't mush 'em.

the middle in front of the ps goal is wide open no hawks..wtf

2 down 2 to go. Hawks fans starting to worry yet? It is fun to listen to 670 the score before games to hear the confidence and lack of respect for the orange and black. Another great game. Coburn has been outstanding in this series

Kane Minus 4, Toews Minus 2.

Can't win with your top two playing like this.

no we played sloppy as hell drop passes to noone.no one in front of the net
you guys played hard at home but dont expect any cindarella story .it ends bad for you in chi town..

I guess you expext this to 7 then. Game 6 is in philly

I have a headache about as big as Ville Leino has been for us during this playoff run. Looking forward to the core of this team being together for a LONG time.

Hooves, if the Hawks top line continues to play like they have in the past two games, this series never makes it back to Chi-town for a 7th. At this rate, your team catches the flight home from game 6 a dejected bunch, more worried about tee times and if their butlers have been rummaging through their underwear drawers while they've been gone.

Great win for the Flyers. It's not a sure thing but I have a feeling the Flyers will win game 5. It just seems like they got it going.

Jesus, could there be a worse goal song in the NHL then the Hawks song? 7 F'n times tonight (not including the one when they won the game). Almost as bad as that girl singin at the Belmont :rolleyes: :D.

Are you trolling?:D

:o

:tro::tro:

That song gets to me almost as bad as that horn the vikings sound all the time

The hawks looked fantastic to start yesterday, the flyers hung around but the hawks played an outstanding game and were just killing the flyers in the first period. Hopefully the flyers can get the win in philly and bring it back to Chicago for game 7.

i like that song and why they play it.:tro:

The Fratellis were at Metro last night and every time the Hawks scored they played it live. Had big screens set up showing the game...If I wasn't a Hawk's fan it would be annoying, but damn it's cool when you are the UC and they break it out.

I know the Flyers have had an amazing run as an 8 seed. But I really believe if they end up losing, the GM has to take some heat for not acquiring a top notch goalie at the trade deadline. I know Leighton has had an incredible run, but coming into this season (even with the acquistion of Emery) the goaltending was a big question mark. Then after all the injuries not to address it at the trade deadline was a huge mistake. How much could of cost them to trade for Dwayne Roloson from the Isles? The guy almost won the cup by himself for the Oilers a couple of years ago. They really have a tremendous lineup, but their glaring weekness is in the nets. I know it's tough to find fault on a team that's 2 games away from the cup, but I really believe that's what going to cost them from winning it.

for what its worth they were the 7 seed matt. the only reason i know this is b.c my team was beat by the 8th seeded team.

as far as getting a goalie at deadline, i thought they should have made a push as well. But, they would have had to give up a pretty good size asset (money wise) to fit anyone under the cap. If i remember correctly they have been up against the cap pretty much all year, if they were to make a run at rolo they would have had to part with someone like hartnell, not just prospects and picks.

Leighton basically stood on his head in the regular season, and all the flyers faithful were all about him, then the playoffs start and the wheels start coming off, now the bloom is off the rose and it shows why he's a 255K a year goalie who was picked up off of waivers from what then was the worst team in hockey, the carolina hurricanes. And as a caps fan i know this all too well, the whole part about the wheels falling off for a goalie in the playoffs, cue Jose Theodore.

i've said it since the series started, leighton has been on borrowed times IMO for a while now. Hope he gets the start tonight though, what is like 5-0 at home in his last 5?

They play tomorrow night Brian

Oh no they have got women hockey players in a uproar. They were "offended" by the picture. Can't anyone do or say anything in the damn world without someone getting "offended"? Anyone who sees that pic and gets offended should really, to paraphrase John Riggins, "lighten up".

first off thats fn funny..

steaks seasoned with olive oil and salt pepper, montreal seasoning for 2 days .check.

drink mixings check

30 rednecks that know nothing about hockey on the way [new hawks fans]
check.

big scr hd w surround sound check.

hawks blow out victory and win the stanley cup :tro::tro: check check.!!!!!

true .. if i wasnt it would bother me..i saw that..the metro .man those were the days..

Bad goal by Leighton. He brought the Hawks back to life.

Eh, he's doing what he can. Philly just can't sustain any kind of attack. 27-13 in favor of Chicago.

*takes off fake hockey analyst hat*

oh jesus. the woman hockey player who said she could keep up with pronger....lol i watched a few minutes of womens hockey during the olympics. it was like watching hockey in slow-mo, with not one check into the boards. absolutely ridiculous!

btw, love john riggins. lighten up sandy, baby. you're too tight! lol i'll never forget that.

I understand that we live in the overreative, 24 hour a day, instant news cycle that gives exposure to these idiots but sometimes it just gets ridiclous. The NAACP protesting black holes as racist and this hockey chick mad because of a picture of Proger in a dress. It is just a joke.
