One Goal Gets Closer
What a game. What a series. What a playoff run this is turning out to be.
Halfway to the unimaginable after missing the playoffs for years. Detroit or Anaheim? The regular season record was better against the Ducks, but the Hawks also closed out the season with back-to-back wins against Detroit. And of course, if you're any kind of hockey fan, it's a Detroit series you're wishing for. Who better to test you than the defending champs?
A great big thanks to Rocky Wirtz for making hockey mean something again in Chicago.

Hat Trick for Patrick!!!
Yadda yadda yadda
Gimme the Stanley Cup
And they won despite having a Cub on the ice between periods.
Whatta game! This is way more exciting than cricket
Been a great season so far....
Let's finish this thing!!!
Go HAWKS!
Only 8 more wins to go for the Cup!
I have a feeling that there's going to be more posts then usual on this subject. All of a sudden, everybody's a Blackhawks fan these days. Most of these "Johnny-Come Lately's" don't even have a clue who the players are on this team.
Oh well, as a true fan I'm glad this team is finally getting the attention they deserve. Even "The Score" radio station is finally jumping on board and talking Blackhawks hockey instead of re-hashing the same old, same old about our pathetic Sox and Cubs.
GO HAWKS!!!!
Let's get ready for the west side riots. Ohhh wait wrong people. Carry on.
AGREED!
What a roller coaster game! Hawk lead, Canuck lead, back and forth, insanity! Thanks Rocky for making hawks relevant again. It was rockin! Bring on the wings...As Ric Flair would say "to be the man you got to beat the man." Go Hawks...WOOOO!!!!
YAWN........
holy fuck the roar is back bitches
If Rocky were mayor, we would have had a new contract 22.5 months ago.
Hey 'shanks, call Rocky for pointers on how to run a corporation.
ONE STEP CLOSER TO MY DREAM.
THANKS ROCK.
the blackhawks better win this year,they wont be able to keep this team together next year,salary cap.
DE-TROIT SUCKS! DE-TROIT SUCKS!

Apparently, you didn't watch the game. Geovanny Soto was replaced by NU football coach Patrick Fitzgerald.

Rocky Wirtz for Mayor!
They've made a believer out of me!!!!!
GOOOO HAWKSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!
It's been a long time since I've had this much fun after the football season ended.
Yeah a Wings/Hawks series would be better-- but the Ducks would be a better pick! Home ice and a better record. I WANT THAT CUP! What Cub was on the ice??

They'll be together for years. Patrick Kane said after the first round of the playoffs that they are so young and inexperienced that they don't realize they're not supposed to be winning like this.
Maybe they are so young and inexperienced that they won't realize they are supposed to move on as multi-millionaires to other teams!

SCREW THE POINTERS
RUN FOR MAYOR
YOU'RE A LOCK TO WIN !
I spy ric flair at the game last nite...hmmmmm
I would like to see the Ducks win in about three overtimes tonight. In game 7, no strong preference other than about 5 overtime periods. How many readers of this board are old enough to remember back to around 1970 when the Hawks were the most popular sports team in this town - not the Bears, the expansion Bulls or either of the baseball teams.
In the postgame interviews it is so refreshing to hear "AY" instead of "HUH.
Rocky for SUPERINTENDENT!!! If he can take that organization and turn it around in record time after what his father let it become....The man is better than Moses!!!! GO HAWKS!!!!
That was an awesome game last night, people were going insane at the bar I was at!
So glad that I am a season ticket holder, this year has been one hell of a ride. These last 2 home games were an amazing time to be a fan, and when I look at my Stanley Cup tix it looks like more of reality everyday!! Go Hawks!!
the hawks have a good chance at beating either detroit or anaheim. the hawks just will not be denied this year. hopefully khabby does not get hurt because huet has not played and he will get smoked if he has to come in. if the hawks have to go to the "joe" for the first two they will definitely have to take one of them if they hope to beat the red wings.
got a call from my cousin in montreal, he said that there is a huge support of the blackhawks up there since the canadians are out.
I think their good luck charm was Lou Angotti sitting in the stands near the Hawk bench!

********
they probably didn't get any attention before, except from you "true fans", because they sucked.
everyone loves a winner baby!
As a lifelong Detroit fan (born there), I've gotta say, I'm not sad to say, I'm 100% behind the Hawks!!!! GO HAWKS!!!
OT--
Is Chalkie getting any closer to selling shirts again???
Please post if so.........
What's the new logo???
Thanks!
Some people are still celebrating....
Overheard at 1715 hours Zone 10
bangers "making Molotov cocktails in the alley"
WTF?!

New performance review system hits the paper
OT: Officers living in Beverly tell your libtard neighbors if they see suspicious people lurking around dial 911. And that dumb as retired Deputy Molloy, call the police when you get that feeling that something is not right. Now a few houses were burglarized a week ago.
OT:
Saw a revenue PEA flanked by 2 supervisors around 200 N Jefferson today writing M plates.
The poor PEA didn't look happy about it.......but one of the supervisors......Fat F1; was grinning like a clown.
Why don't we grow "Contract Beards" like hockey players grow Play-off Beards? Maybe a whole police force sporting ZZ-Top like beards to their knees might be just the visual Shortshanks needs to get his ass in gear and finalize the contract.
The best thing to happen to the NHL in years is the major resurgence of an original six franchise here in Chicago.
Not to be a conspiracy theorist or anything, but wouldn't the entire NHL benefit from the Hawks going deep into the playoffs and even winning the Cup this year ? Hmmmmm?
Hatrick Kane
"KANER"
They better hurry and win this thing because the weather is getting warmer and the ice will melt.
Get ready for the riots in Mount Greenwood and Hedgwich.
Amazingly, on Tues. I was able to get tickets on the glass on ticketmaster for the last home game of the conference series and the last home game for the cup, 13th row.
Lord I hope they prevail and the games go that deep in to the series.
Was fortunate to go to the last regular season game that didn't mean anything but it was a GREAT time.
Lots of players after the game on Racine.
Go Hawks!!!
