Kane back for game 1. I really, really hope he's 100%!
And you know teams are going to hit him hard...

I feel like he has been back skating for awhile now so his stamina should be good. After he takes a couple of hits, he should be just fine. Can't wait for this to get going tonight.

I agree with the Hawks in 6 predictions.

Let's go Hawks!

I think I'm finally gonna go to bed now... holy christ Darling was an absolute phenom tonight! Glad the offense finally got some fire under their asses to back up the poor start.

Quite a turnaround in that one! Wow. They looked like absolute garbage in the 1st period. I still will never understand why Roszival continues to play. And if Q is obsessed with playing him, he should be buried on the bench and not playing with Keith. That 2nd period was awesome. That's a killer loss for Nashville...blowing a 3-0 lead at home.

Also- the lengths that they go to to keep Blackhawks fans out of there is beyond pathetic. I'm kinda embarrassed for them.

Totally agree on Roszival. Hell, why Seabrook sees so much ice time boggles my mind. Should've traded him and kept Leddy.
I trust Q with all my might, he has brought us 2 Cups after all. But he does seem to have a few favorites who completely suck it up night after night, yet still see ice time when there is better talent available at the position. (See: Bollig/Morin last season)

They should have traded Sharp over Leddy. Sharp had a huge year lsat year and you knew he would come back down to earth this year. There will definitely be some major moves this offseason since Kane/Toews new deals kick in next year and it doesn't look like the cap will be going up as much as everyone thought it would be.

Can't argue with Q's success, but he sure makes some head-scratching decisions. His unwillingness to play young guys is what will lead to him either getting fired or "resigning".

Nice bounce back after Friday night. Q has to stick with Darling now, right??

Oh I would think Darling gets the call for game 4.

Yep. Darling was good today. Still think Crawford got a raw deal in all this.

Made it to the 2nd overtime but passed out on the couch. Woke up at 3am and saw that Seabrook scored the winner! Darling played great....looks like he's our guy for the rest of the playoffs.
