So what is it? A broken collar bone?

I couldn't even tell where he caught that puck. Must have been collar bone. He looked fine though.

I didn't think he looked fine at all.

Cmon St. Louis, just win this damn game, if it goes to 7, I think we know the outcome

Back for the third. He seems to be moving okay.

Crazy

[darksabre]

I thought Elliot made that save. The replay says no. All crossbar.

And St Louis represents the Blackhawks stiffest challenge in the West, I believe. They get through tonight, roll out the red carpet.

Icing?

I love seeing high $$ goaltenders get knocked out early in the playoffs, up against cheaper (and so far, outperforming) goaltenders.

 

Quick, Lundqvist, Crawford, eventually Rinne the Swedish Sieve.....................

Because it supports your long held belief on goalies?

St. Louis can't beat the Blackhawks.

But they did

[SwampD]

How does any professional hockey player leave Shaw that open. Mindboggling.

[Wyldnwoody44]

Thanks stripes.... Friggin Chicago

Son bi7ch. The Blues sat back in the second, killed the game for them.

[Randall Flagg]

Chicago.

My hatred for the chanting of the goalie's name knows no bounds. Unless the guy is a known douche-k-nozzle, I think it's classless BS.

 

 

I haven't seen the officiating inequities that others have.

Well , we'll see if home ice in THE game works for 'em. Even though I really don't like Hitch, finding that's who I hope wins. Mildly surprising.

Ever since the Rags fans were chanting ROOOO-AAAHH (to great effect :rolleyes:) it's just seemed silly; not particularly evil.

A little. 

[Randall Flagg]

I forgot to mention this yesterday, but this Kings-Sharks series that ended yesterday was the worst I've ever seen Doughty play, by far.

[JJFIVEOH]

Miller..err they aren't in the playoffs

 

AND they're paying for somebody else's goaltender to be in the playoffs.  :o

[Thorner]

But they did

Sorry, in a series, I meant.

One more Hawks, one more

[JujuFish]

I know a lot of people here want Chicago to lose, but I find it very difficult to cheer for a team coached by Ken Hitchcock.

[Wyldnwoody44]

I just like seeing a little shake up in the Playoff, sharks over kings was fun and unexpected. Anaheim losing to Nashville was also, but they turned it around.

[Randall Flagg]

Tarasenko is 6th among Blues forwards in time-on-ice this series. Last night, on their power play going into the second intermission down by a goal, Tarasenko got 8 seconds of ice time, while Troy Brouwer got 1:52.

 

Hitchcock doesn't deserve to win this series.

I think that's the reason for this:  https://twitter.com/Pascucci015/status/724057060971700225
