ChiliIrishHammock24 Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 I can't believe that Shaw goal is not allowed. They need to change that. Headbutting a puck in is some crazy creativity s*** that should be allowed. It's not like he punched it in or threw it in with his leg. A header goal is awesome. lol. Booooooo. Anyway, great to come out of Cali 1-1. We've eliminated their home-ice advantage. 3 of the next 5 games are on home ice. Just win at home and we go to the 'ship.

BigEdWalsh Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 What a game. I'm on the west coast but I feel so bad for the many Blackhawk fans in Chicago who probably couldn't stay up to watch it in it's entirety. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DBAHO Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 I've never seen a game on so late in the afternoon down here (which probably sounds crazy to you all up there). Huge win though, could be the big turning point in the series hopefully. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm on the west coast but I feel so bad for the many Blackhawk fans in Chicago who probably couldn't stay up to watch it in it's entirety. Of course the two triple overtime games have been late 8:00 and 8:30 local time starts too. I took a "nap" at the start of the second overtime but was awake for the rest of the game. That 5:30 alarm came quick this morning! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RockRaines Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ May 20, 2015 -> 01:16 AM) That made me extra happy because they spent the whole game talking up the Ducks 4th line. Meanwhile, Kruger & crew do that s*** every single game. Hawks win! The announcers were sucking off the Ducks all night. It was annoying as hell.

LittleHurt05 Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 It's a little less significant since DET moved to the East, but Babcock is leaving the Wings. Apparently Buffalo & San Jose are out, so Toronto seems to be the most likely destination. (Unless the Hawks fire Q today ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted May 20, 2015 Author Share Posted May 20, 2015 Darren Dreger @DarrenDreger 4m4 minutes ago Sources say Mike Babcock has been hired by the Maple Leafs. Mammoth 8 yr contract believed to be around $50 million. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mammoth 8 yr contract believed to be around $50 million. That's like double Q's salary and he was the highest paid coach in the league. The Maple Leafs are like the recent Yankees money-wise, minus all the winning of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsideirish71 Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 (edited) QUOTE (RockRaines @ May 21, 2015 -> 07:22 PM) I don't get these lineup changes Tevu was one of the more creative players on the ice during the playoffs. But I guess we need more Versteeg for whatever god for saken reason. A healthy scratch since the first round, Versteeg impressed Quenneville recently in practice, and the head coach acknowledged how difficult sitting has been on the veteran forward. “He’s had a great week of practicing,” Quenneville said earlier today. “He’s not happy. He wants to play in the worst way. Puts himself as a candidate to get in the lineup. We’ve had some decisions along the way. Last game we could have inserted him. We’ll see. I like his approach. I told him we expect him in this series.” Edited May 22, 2015 by southsideirish71 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
