The blackhawks played their best and lost!

[G's pks]

Detroit seemed to be playing at half speed... I am not complaining, but when Detroit needed to they would just turn it up a notch!

Great job by the Bulin Wall for the Hawks... But for us wings backers lets ring it up... Game 1 in the books..

[playinragz]

uhhh did you watch the game? BOTH GOALIES SUCKED !!! all the "walls" huge saves happen to hit um ... he sucks and believe me chi didnt play there best game there 2 stars were absent !!!

Yes I watched the game... maybe you missed the combined 40 minutes kane/toews played... Or the 43 shots on goal the wings had...

I beg to differ, both goalies played good games. Osgood's first miss was a bad move on his part but it was a bad beat. Nikolai missed Cleary's rocket wrister but not many goalies would have saved it. That is what happens when you get 43 sent your way. Detroit played horrible in the first. Kane and Toews were both -3. They were shut down. Detroit is just simply a notch above the leauge.

Pfft, only somebody with Zetty in their avatar would make a comment like that. You won a closely fought first game, at home. Chi-town might lose the first, possibly even the second, but they're coming back with a vengence in this series

Well said!

Chicago will need to improve hard and fast, if they go 2-0 down to this DET team it's over. And if they play like yesterday, well, I say 4-0 DET.

I said 5... Hawks have alot of heart...now they need to add more talent....

[Flyers09]

both goalies play outstanding, just a matter of time until the red wings dominating force/pressure cash's in on khabi and the blackhawks. Hawks are too young and small to beat these wings, sry but its a fact....What is ben eager going to match up to them? come on the guy is a bum on skates

[5 star bomb]

bunch of nit wit's who dont know what they are talking about. Both goalies player very well. Khabibulan kept us in the game for as long as possible but you cant expect him to make brilliant save after brilliant save....... Hawks were not even close to their best on defense or offense... this is going to go 7 games

[betplom]

Hawks and best defense shouldn't be mentioned in the same sentence.

This one will be over in 6 max, how long can Khabibulin keep stopping the Wings frequent offensive attacks before he's outta gas?

Chicagos defense is why they have no chance against Detroit. Book it.

you are right no one here knows what happened, they only see what they wanna see...I saw khabi keeping the hawks in as long as he could....he was the reason it was not 7-2. or more....Wings r too powerfull, and they in my opinion did not play as good as they really are

[Flyers09]

hawks young guys need to step up and hit, play smart NO penalties! Wear down the wings, keep the score LOW going into the third, then the hawks can win...Smart play, big hits, wear down the wings, and keep wings to the outside with no realiable shots

Babcock is a genius, you're already done. He has those lines switched up every single shift. Kane and Toews are your only option and were -3. Stick to the Cubs pal, you're clueless when it comes to pucks.

[5 star bomb]

guys I know Hawks lack the defense but they can come up big in a game or 2 and get the job done. Basically Hawks need to steal 1 in Detroit and try and take all 3 at home. I think winning 2 in Detroit will be very tough

I might b a lil biased being from detroit but we all here all ready have our brooms out n ready

[Flyers09]

hawks did not lack on only defense pal. they lacked on offense more the D!
Centers play the position cause they can back check. Did any of them back check? NO
Offense was weak, Wings shut em down before they even go a foot to the blueline.

Im sorry, but They will not steal a game in Det.

Deuce stop acting like the game was an all out blowout. Yes the Wings outplayed the Hawks but Khabi kept us in it for as long as he could and if Seabrook doesnt ****in let that puck skip over his stick its 1-1 after two periods..........

Yeah you're right. The same game I watched the Wings barely slipped by. Dominating the entire 2nd and 3rd was a fluke. The offensive surge that dominated your defense wasn't meant to happen. Unreal. You know shit about the Red Wings or hockey.

[Flyers09]

All's i know is, WEST wins the cup again this year, either Wings or Hawks....

pens/canes CANNOT beat either of these 2 teams

The first goal was a fluke and a bad beat. Cleary actually had to score unlike Versteeg or who ever that nit wit was the half assed the backhand bouncing off a Wing stick.

[Flyers09]

The first goal was a fluke and a bad beat.

agreed, i forgout bout that one actually, thanks for the reminder, so in reality, 5-1......

[5 star bomb]

Yea it was kind of a lucky goal but Hawks are quick and score lot of those kinds of goals. Osgood better be on his toes all series!! Hawks can score FAST!!

[Flyers09]

omg...HAWKS can barely get into the WINGS defensive zone pal!

[Deuce]

lmao it's two homers we're fighting with. We know hockey unlike most here. Its a battle that will never end. Let them have their way now, we'll have the last laugh for sure. They are in a fantasy land.

ok pal
but i was in fantasy land at one point as well, with my flyers. But after all these playoff games, i see now why the flyers did not make it far.

Lets go wings

I'll watch and see how well the Hurricanes play against Pitt before passing judgement.

I think the Canes have a shot at Detroit if they can handle the Penguins.

[DwightShrute]

Hawks win game #2

Yes, I was most proud of my Chicago pick over Vancouver.

You don't pay attention, I've done very well in the playoffs and I have a habit of watching the games closely before commenting on them.

Dwight, I'm just trying to help you save a few bucks pal.

Unfortunately you keep refusing the help.
