Do the Blackhawks survive tonight?

[packerd_00]

you are flat out insane.

Teams like the New England Patriots, St Louis Cardinals , Green Bay Packers, New York Yankees NEVER rebuild.

its cruel to do fans that way.

Fans deserve to have a team that tries to win the championship every single year.

He's a complete ignoramus

[lakerboy]

Only reason they aren't a dynasty is basically because of the salary cap,theyve had to dump a lot of valuable players because they couldn't afford to keep certain players under the cap. Dustin Byflugien for example should still be in Chicago but they couldn't afford to fit his salary under the cap.

Last I checked they choked vs the kings last year

[astrobloke]

today I took the blackhawks winning the whole stanley cup. As a few guys in here have stated, They play well under pressure and will be just as hungry in Game 7.

I think its a bit premature to get all excited, but I liked the odds of them taking themselves all the way to the finals, and actually winning! They look hungry! They should take game 7, maybe not easily, but then that will give them the new fresh breadth they will need to WIN the FINALS. :-)

ok, maybe not the smartest bet, but we shall see, i like that edge.

Hawks didn't choke,series went to a game 7 OT,could have went either way. Know the Sharks they choked had a 3-0 series lead and blew the next 4,the Ducks had a 3-2 series lead they shit the bed in the next two. Rangers they completely flopped.

Hawks were the one team that gave them a real series

Dave Cokin said, on Las Vegas radio, before game 6, that he thought that "Ducks are
the better team". Now for game 7. Please keep the opinions coming.

i thought early in the series ducks would wear down chi who basically playing what like 5 defenseman? i think these 2 days before gm 7 benefit hawks a great deal and ducks goalie not looking like same guy he was at beginning of series. i guess what im saying is now that we here how the hell you go against the hawks?

Um I was talking about the Ducks blowing a 3-2 series lead against the Kings, try to keep up smart guy.

[lakerboy]

Hawks choked in game 7 last year. They were up 2-0.

[packerd_00]

The Kings were up 3-1 in the series guy.

Yeah and they won the series. Your point?

Well for one thing you were wrong,but why would expect you to admit it. Secondly the Hawks didn't choke do you know what that term means

[lakerboy]

Ask Joel quenneville how he felt. Yes the hawks did choke. They blew game 7 at home up 2-0.

That whole series was back and forth,neither goalie could hold a lead,2-0 is not a huge lead in a playoff game not against a really good team,know leading a series 3 games to 0 and completely pissing it away that is choking

[astrobloke]

several days ago, said They should take game 7, maybe not easily, but then that will give them the new fresh breadth they will need to WIN the FINALS. :-) {see above}

I did put a bet on them. Also $1000 to win the stanley cup too.

Now they are off to the finals, so WATCH close as the ducks win the whole stanley cup finals.

book it!
