sioux rube

Richards ties it up. Hawks are flying after a slow start.

High glove side on Crawford. Imagine that.

Heard he had the shyts

I'd say siouxweet got himself boxed up a bit.

I'd go with that.

This score stands the backup goalie gets the win.

Ah Tampa is in the East. They eliminated the Rangers.

Ah Tampa is in the finals for a reason. They're good.

This is the type of game I was expecting from these 2 teams. High flying with scoring chances at both ends. Fun to watch.

I do believe the Bolts will tie this series up tonight. Hawks win both at home, Bolts win game 5 at home then Hawks hoist the Cup in front of the home crowd in game 6.

Stauffer throwing up meatballs again today. DFA he and Duensing now. Santana needs to be sent down to AAA to get his crap together. Is the June swoon here? Losing 2 to the lowly Brewers at home could kick start it.

Wasn't much better today.

Twins take the last 2 games in Boston to split the series and take the season series 5 games to 2. Mauer a robust 1-13 and is now down to .263. Ish.

Like a veteran team will do at times is survive the first period. The Hawks basically did only giving up one goal when it could of been 2 or 3 rather easily. Halfway thru the second they started to establish themselves and ultimately win it in the third. Crawfords breakaway save in the third was huge. And the Hawks won with Kane and Toews each only having one shot on net. Is it Saturday yet?

Yes!!!!!!!

Tie game. Yes!!!!!

Personally I don't mind a nasty game in the playoffs here and there.

Lucky for Versteeg he was wearing a shield.

5 of the 8 fights in the playoffs were in that series.

There have been 8 fights so far according to this site. http://www.hockeyfights.com/fightlog/

The Bolts are flying. And kicking butt in the face off circle.

Good point. ?

With all that new business we are actually keeping some young people here. Much more so than in the past. Now we just voted today for a new 28 million dollar family fitness center.

The Hockey News picked the Hawks and Bolts back in September to be in the finals. They now picked the Hawks in 6. Hope they are right again.

It also says Minnesota to host in week 9. All credibility lost with that.
