G&T Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Apr 13, 2011 -> 10:39 PM) The Hawks have got to pick up the effort. They look happy to be here instead of determined to win. Not a surprise since that's what they've been saying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleHurt05 Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 Canucks definitely looking like the better & more agressive team. Whatever happens, let's not forget that in 2010 the Canucks won game 1 at the UC 5-1 and in 2009 won the opener 5-3 up in Vancouver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EvilJester99 Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 The way the Hawks look now is they are on a permanent PK...they just look horrible out there. Van is just out working them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daa84 Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 i couldnt believe how many local guys picked the hawks to win in 7....well be lucky to push this thing to a 6th game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Controlled Chaos Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 Hawks outplaying em here in the second. Need a bounce for christ sake. Luongo'ss been good, but if Campbell lifts the puck 6 inches instead of slideing it on the ice...the Hawks are right in this. Also, what's with Vancouver leaving their feet for like every check.

RockRaines Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 Just like every other series, Van starts out hot and the Hawks take the momentum back even with a loss to show for it. Take this and win the next one to bring it home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted April 14, 2011 Author Share Posted April 14, 2011 Vancouver just beat up the Hawks last night, and we never really punched back. They have got to show up this next game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Controlled Chaos Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 It wasn't pretty watching the Hawks not only get hit, but also play like they're afraid to get hit. However, they took it and were the better team in the next 2 periods. Dam if Campbell just puts the puck in the net on that sweet feed from Kane with a minute left in the first, it could have been a different game. A lot of bounces went against the Hawks last night, so hopefully fortunes turn Friday. Crawford looked up to the task. I thought Campbell had a terrible first period and was directly responsible for a goal on that stupid backwards pass and a missed goal. It was also his guy that scored on that tip goal, but I can't totally fault himfor that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know if he got worn out last season or what, but he's definitely looked nothing like a Norris Trophy winner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have got to show up this next game. I would say after the first 20 minutes, the Hawks punched back. The passing was ugly though, not very crisp. QUOTE (EvilJester99 @ Apr 14, 2011 -> 10:18 AM) Keith looked terrible as well... Keith/Seabs have been brutal this year. Seabrook has actually been extremely suspect on D.

I don't know if he got worn out last season or what, but he's definitely looked nothing like a Norris Trophy winner. Yeah...not sure what happened to the guy. He's too dam casual with the puck, he gets outworked on the boards and his passes are off the mark more than they're on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maggsmaggs Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 We miss the attitudes greatly of Burish, Buff, Eager, Sopel and Ladd. This team is all soft players. We really have no one besides Scott who is just willing to lay it down. We really miss that toughness that those players brought last year.

Steve9347 Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 I don't really have anything to say. Lots of saves, decent luck for Luongo. The key is getting past the first 10 minutes in a road playoff game tied. The Hawks failed to do that. Hopefully they start better next time.

flippedoutpunk Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 I think after the 3rd goal post hit i chalked it up to bad luck for the hawks. That kane louongo butt shot was too close and the frolik shot gave me the pucker factor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiliIrishHammock24 Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 I'm not discouraged. Of the only two periods Versus allowed me to watch (2nd and 3rd), the Hawks looked like the better team, but was just unlucky. Could have easily had 3 or 4 games. I'm not demoralized yet.

LittleHurt05 Posted April 15, 2011 Share Posted April 15, 2011 Sounds like Kopecky got hurt and is out for game 2. I assume Pisani will take his place, although the old-time hockey fans will all be clamoring for John Scott cause the team needs to get tougher.
