Penalty parade is gonna kill the Hawks if they keep this up.

10 goals scored so far between the 2 teams...

Interesting. Interesting.
Lots of goals, but no one cares about these two teams. It's the equivalent of a Seattle / Buffalo Super Bowl.
I'm rooting for the Hawks only because I still have a little left over hate for the Flyers from the old Patrick Division days.

What a game played by Brouwer and especially, The Rat! Bolland!

And howabout Kopecky coming in off the bench and scoring the GWG...!
And assisted by Da Rat.

You know, if Ladd was in good shape, Kopecky wouldn't have even been in there! Thank you Ladd!

no goalies in that game, every scoring chance resulted in a goal

I dunno about that...I'd say Niemi can be really faulted for only one goal on him. The rest, he had zip chance... 
He does have to do a better job on rebounds.
The Flyers on the other hand...yeah, not sure about Leighton. I'm guessing he'll bounce back. He did against the Habs.

OK, I've come to the conclusion that Pronger and Company are nothing but stupid, idiot thugs. Good luck winning a Stanley Cup by trying to bring back the Broad Street Bullies. The Blackhawks don't seem to be backing down.

And the Cursed One scores that crucial 1st goal...

Interesting. Interesting.
Hawks owe one to Niemi; he was great. Philly so dominated the 3rd period, it didn't really look like they were playing a professional hockey team.

Hmm...what's going on this year with the usual folks? The only people in this thread consistently are Yumcha, Steven Bell, and srika. I guess the regulars lost interest this year? where's 97black, jupiters, dom, jonesi, moog, etc?
Great game and no one but Bell, srika, and Yumcha are posting? And Bell and srika are bandwagon jumpers so it's really just Yumcha?
The last 3-4 years we've had people posting up this hizzle after every finals game...

Me......a bandwagon jumper? Seriously??? The Blackhawks have ALWAYS been my favorite team-even before Toews and Kane!
And to back up my statement-here are a couple pictures of me playing hockey-just to prove I'm not a "bandwagon jumper".

I believe most are just waiting to chime in and do the pile on if Chicago loses...

^ Well, to be specific, I believe it would be 97Acklacka, Fibby, dom (just because he has to), and maybe Moog... 
Or, it could be because it's the Memorial Day weekend.

I don't really feel I *need* to explain or justify myself here, but since I got called out I kind of feel defensive about this, so I will.
I have other interests that take up the majority of my time - I'm thusly not a big fan of watching sports, casually. But, if any Chicago teams wants to make themselves worth watching, I'll watch. But if they suck or are average (which is usually the case), no I'm not gonna put in the days to watch or follow them.
Just for the record, I have been to Hawks games before and I do enjoy watching (and playing) (floor) hockey occasionally.
Also, I have been keeping up with the Hawks this season, generally in terms of how they are doing (not watching games), I just haven't been vocal about it. How well they were doing was a factor but the bigger factor was that my 5-yr old nephew LOVES the Hawks and ice hockey. I took him to a few of his practice sessions, I think he is probably going to be doing this for a while. He loves goaltending and I've even heard some of the coaches say he is really bright and shows extraordinary potential for his age.
