Yeah... Advantage Flyers... they just won 5 - 3... Now the series is tied at 2 games each in the best of 7... which is now a best of 3. Chicago is not looking sharp and has no answer for Philadelphia. Philadelphia looks like they could steal one in Chicago with momentum on their side. They are outplaying the Hawks in every aspect of the game.

Yes, I could see that.. but it didn't help Philly had hometown advantage for this game with an entire Rink stadium full of flyers fans! That alone had to be a little bit demoralizing. The next game will be in hawks territory which hopefully will help everyone think a little more clearly as they play. But in the third period it did look like the flyers were spanking them! geeezz.

You drama queen...the Hawks just needed to get it out of their system. Hawks came back and won game 5. They will finish them off in Philly...you'll see.

I'm a typical Chicago sports fan that is quite used to disappointment, if you please.
I certainly want them to win in Philly Wednesday night and hope they have the same energy they had last night!

Re: Chicago Blackhawks Hockey
Just choose to ignore history and realize that this year, the Blackhawks are bringing home Lord Stanley's Cup. Next year we will resume our normally broadcast programming of the Redwings bringing home the cup, but this year is your turn. I'm pulling for the Hawks and I believe it will happen. They are clearly a better team. Plus, Philly sucks.

Well not as much disappointment as those of us originally from Buffalo!!!!!!!!! We have to live down the 4 lost superbowls in a row!!! And, a hockey team that never seems to make it past the playoffs!!! I think you're being a little mellow dramatic since the Hawks seem like the odds are in their favor at the moment!!!
:twisted:

Re: Chicago Blackhawks Hockey
I was just about to ask if you'd calmed down at all yet...
Obviously not !!
I know the feeling. When the Cats won their first flag in over 40 years, It took ages before I settled down.
Make the most of it Sith !!!

Re: Chicago Blackhawks Hockey
Just so that you know, my avatar is from the Nottingham Panthers ice hockey team. I love hockey but can't get down as often as I like. In order to understand the level they play at it is in the top Uk league and in the UK we tend to have a mix of the best of english with a mix of 'nearly men' from the USA/Canada/Europe, with a sprinkling of players from the NHL who didn't last too long.

Excellent JayCee! Can you get any of the NHL broadcasts over there? I've been to old IHL games (league folded several years back) as well as AHL... and of course NHL... The NHL is head and shoulders above the other leagues in speed and talent (at least from a team effort).
I'm already looking forward to the next NHL season. The Hawks have let a number of key players go due to Salary cap restrictions, but I still like their chances at repeating. I know I will miss Kris Versteeg (4hams... you are gonna like this guy in Toronto), Dustin Byfuglien, Ben Eager, and Andrew Ladd, but I am looking forward to seeing what this team can due with new young talent around the core of Toews, Kane, and Keith.

Re: Chicago Blackhawks Hockey
Yes we can get the NHL over here but I choose not to pay the extra for the one channel showing it, if there was something else on that channel worth watching I may consider it. I do pay for the NFL as I got addicted to the Raiders around the 1980's, then switched to the Patriots (via the Giants when a certain #56 was playing) but the Raiders remain my first love so to speak.

Re: Chicago Blackhawks Hockey
I still watch the NFL, but no longer have the passion for it. Too many thugs in the game that don't know how to behave... and whether they want to be or not, they are role models for the kids.... In some respects this is the fault of the media and the NFL (teams, coaching/management and commissioner).
For the most part, Hockey players are regular guys. Sure, there are always exceptions, but the NFL and NBA (while we are on the subject) have more of the people that I don't want my kids trying to be like. Just my opinion.

Re: Chicago Blackhawks Hockey
With you 100% Sith. I can't stomach NBA basketball and players.
as well as your NFL. Baseball is another one. There seems to be a lot of egos and players who can't handle being up on the pedestal they are put on by the public and the media. I can tell you in our Aussie Rules and Rugby League it's the same but I'd like to think on a lot lesser scale.
They get to a stage where they think they are above the game, the law and everyone else.
I have rely on you for the NHL updates. Greatly appreciated I might add.

Re: Chicago Blackhawks Hockey
I'm good with baseball... lived and breathed it as a kid (and coach my oldest daughter in softball now). I'm a Chicago White Sox fan. And I'll add, they are in first place in their division! Just before the All Star break they went 25 - 5. That's amazing.
Back to my daughter... A couple weeks back she made her third consecutive all star game and in it, made her pitching debut. She gave up one-run in three innings of work. She listens to her dad who was once great at the game and uses the leather well.
Damn shame I did not get one picture this year. Over involved as a coach and did some umpire duties... they won't let us have cameras on the field and my wife can't work the dSLR.
By the way, How are those Cats doing? Do hope you are feeling better Alby!

Re: Chicago Blackhawks Hockey
Heaps better thanks Sith.
Have to get off my bum every 15 to 20 minutes..(walk and exercise).
That's faantastic to hear about your daughter. Good listener or natural talent ? Do you get any bad parents to the games... hurling abuse and chastising their kids ?
I wouldn't know much about the game except for the movies (Long Gone is my fav. Can't get on DVD) Well... now I've got a baseball team to support. Good One !!
The daughters only liked badminton. Not into sports like their dad (sob!) LOL!! The twins wrote a play (for school) and are producing it. Mum is busy helping with costume. (Loosely based on Alice In W'land) titled 'The Hatters Madhouse' All 3 girls are creative. Not from my side that's for sure.
Now... the Catters. Still on top of the ladder. Had a hard fought game against our nemisis The Hawthorn Hawks. We always have tough games with them. We won by only 2 points !! Nailbiter. We had a few players out. Tonight we play the Adelaide Crows over in Sth Aus. It's a should win game but they play well against us. I'll let you know how we went tomorrow. I'm rostered on to work in the morning. At this stage there's only 4 teams that could make it to the 'big one' Us, The Saints, Collingwood, Bulldogs and the Hawks as outsiders. My take on it. Sanshoe might think otherwise. his Sydney Swans are having a poor year by their standards.
See you in the morning (here that is).
OO ROO
