We need 3rd and 4th liners who can actually put the puck in the net.  We don't have that now.

I have no problem with the Hawks winning this series, or the Cup.  I actually prefer them on San Jose but have money on the Sharks to win the Cup before the playoffs started.

Before the series i thought the Hawks would win.  Philly will win their series too.  Then the Hawks will win the Cup in 5 or 6.

Are you kidding?  You want 20 cent to win the cup?  I think that I will throw up if Chicago wins the Cup.

What a pass he made to Thornton, who served up Marleau for the GAME-WINNNER!!!!  I'm surprised he didn't join in the celebration, or at least be awarded an assist.  Just an awful awful play.

You want to trade the #1 scoring D man in the playoffs because of 1 bad play?  Everybody makes a bad play once in awhile.  That's hockey

I want a big tough Canadian who can fight.

I'm not keen on having any of Eaves, Miller, Abdelkader, Ritola, Helm on a 3rd line, compare them with hawks/pens third line, a third line is suppose to score as well as check, the third line gotta be more of an offensive threat.

The Hawks will have to dump most of their 3rd and 4th lines because of the cap.

He'll waive it if the wings ask him to.

And he wouldn't be the only piece in the trade.

You do realize that Ralfi leads ALL d-men in the playoffs in points don't you?  Yea let's trade him

2 goals in 9 playoff games this year.  I am really glad that we didn't waste our money.

Every goalie has bad playoff years - Luongo, Brodeur, Nabokov, Hasek.

Howard is a rookie but has shown flashes of being a great goalie.  Patience

If the wings' gets eliminated by the sharks are you going to follow every other series with much interest and enthusiasm?
Personally I think I couldn't watch any more, would feel too angry and s*** and it's not worth staying up til early morning to watch a team you're not supporting, I feel like I will need a break just like the wings do, too...

What will you do?

hahahahah....

I had to laugh when I saw that Mr. negativty has started this thread.

Is anybody else pissed that the #1, #2 and #3 teams in the east all lost in the first round and have paved the way for the Pens to return to the finals?  I mean for God's sake, how much luck can 1 team have.  

While we are playing San Jose, they are playing a Montreal team that almost didn't make the playoffs.  And then if we get past San Jose we face either Chicago or Vancouver and they get Boston or Philadelphia.

This to me is unbelievable.  I don't believe that it's a conspiracy but what are the odds of this happening?

At least we get rid of some of the haters and bandwagon fans.  Don't let the door hit your asses on the way ou.

yeah, another small soft euro, no thanks.  Already go tatar coming up quick and hudler maybe coming back eventually.  zuccarella or whatever is moot, wings already learned there lesson with leino.   WONT HAPPEN

What lesson is that?  We shouldn't sign Euros?  We shouldn't sign Finns?

What a stupid post.

We have a couple guys from Europe that have worked out Ok so far.

What a stupid post.

Before the game started I was thinking to myself what is the worst possible outcome for the Hawks in this game.

A key injury?  Maybe but they are very deep and losing a Kane or Toews though it would hurt would IMO not be the end of the world.

Getting blown out by Detroit.  Not so much, they would just look at it as 1 game and move on.

Then I realizedzed that the WORST thing that could happen to Chicago in this game was for Huet to really suck.  Because then it plants doubt in everyones minds.  - players, fans, coaches.

And that my friends is exactly what happened.

Even the NBC idiots realize now that Chicago has a real goaltending issue and it may cost them a chance at the Cup.

Today was a good day....

And I didn't hear any "Detroit Sucks" chants.  Hmmm wonder why...LOL
