Meh, Hawks played flat and uninspired last night. Looked like a bunch of entitled b!tches. Hopefully this helps motivate them to actually play some real hockey, because if they do this series will end 4-2 in favor of the Hawks.

It's over. The Hawks are going to keep trying to bully the Wings and are going to get into more penalty trouble. The Wings are too good and too smart to allow the Hawks to come back.
Seriously, I don't think keeping your own sin bin filled through the third period when you're down two scores is all that great of a strategy.
I think Chicago could be cooked..

If Quennville doesn't put his foot up the Hawks' collective ass before the next game then they have no hope. Not even Obi-Wan will save them then.

Ya Boston should win this round and I do agree it will be tough to beat the penguins but stranger things have happened in the playoffs. Both teams playing great hockey right now Bruins Penguins would be amazing and if they do pull it off bruins all the way

Uh, okay. Have you watched any of the first 3 games? I'd be surprised if it doesn't go all the way to 7.

Good win for the bruins tonight. They were just the better team tonight. Play was in the rangers end most of the night. Lundquist played very well but had no assistance.
The officiating was horrible. Missed two clear as day high sticks to the faces. One hit chara and drew blood, the other hit seguin during a drive. And to anyone who argues that seguin should have also been called, his was a result of a follow through (while also being hit in the face)
It should say something that the rangers havent had a home ice penalty since game 1 of the beginning of the playoffs. Im not saying the rangers are dirty, but even the squeakiest of clean teams take some form of penalty over 4 games.
Im so sick of the nbc sports favoritism. It was like i was watching the penguins play by the sound of it. Just insert new york instead of pittsburgh and whoever of the night for new york in place of crosby. Im all for homer broadcasts, but on nbc it is supposed to be national and somewhat unbiased. It was hard to hear the play by play calling with all the slobbering and gagging noise going on off the dick of lundquist or nash to whoever. Eff, i miss me some nesn (i know thats overly bias, but its a regional network, not a national broadcast)

I'm all for a great rant! And by standards, that's a pretty good one! I will agree about the terrible NBC broadcasts, but have to question why you think NBC loves Pittsburgh? It's pretty clear that milbury, jones, and JR hate Pittsburgh! I guess everyone's biased which is cool. I can get the lovefest for Crosby, but for the whole team? Not so sure. I mean, Matt Cooke is a "freaking skunk" remember? 😉

The league in general has a hard-on for crosby and pittsburgh by proxy. The crap that crosby, neal, malkin, cooke etc... All get away with is disgusting. Its just never a balanced broadcast when playing the penguins. Every national announcer has to hop on the praise train because the league clearly wants crosby as their pretty boy god among men, first ever to be amazing at the sport hockey player.
I absolutely hate basketball and the nba, but its the same as lebron and whatever team he decides is worthy to have him this year, the league picks a player and makes him their posterboy and crosby is it for the nhl..they get more than usual broadcast bias and more than their fair share of leniency with calls and/or repercussions. You certainly dont see shanahan suspending anyone on pittsburgh after the game has finished.

I'm gonna go out on a limb here but I think ArcticBear could probably answer your question with two words: Pierre McGuire
He's the absolute worst. I think he would roofie Sidney Crosby and lock him up in his tickle dungeon given the chance.

Haha! That's true. He would do that to a lot of players though! I mean, I get it that if your not a penguin fan, you're a hater. That's cool with me. I usually listen to the radio broadcast so I don't have to listen to the NBC jackasses. I know everyone's star player is better than Crosby. But I also know that as much as penguin haters complain about what Sid, geno, and apparently Cooke get away with, it does go the other way as well. We're all blinded by our hate/allegiance. So I say go pens! And have no regrets! Oh, and it does look like Boston is getting their brooms out and getting them ready for Thursday.
Thats becauce the league loves cindy crosby...they rhink he is the best think for hockey since someone invented ice....he is a whiner,dirty player,and is not the best...so sick of the nhl praise him like hes ceaser.....where is scott Stevens when u need him to lay cindy out....there are other players in this sport the deserve praise more than cindy

I'm no hater. I've got teams that I like more than others, Pittsburgh's no different. I do get tired of the same old story lines (Crosby vs. Ovechkin, Crosby's current point streak, Crosby's injury rehab, etc), but that's because the repetition is grating. Fact is he's one of the best, if not the best player in the world today. I know that the league is doing what it thinks is best in marketing him, but I also know that your average NHL fan, no matter where he/she is, gets a little tired of it from time to time.
