Ahh one thing I hate about the NHL is that shit gets blacked out. I guess due to PPV? It sucks that I can't watch the VAN/CHI game on nhl.com.

**edit**

Nevermind... found it just in time. 😛 Go hawks!
 
WOW!!! The way OT was going I thought Canucks had it in the bag. Hossa with an awesome shift and just a bad rebound by Luongo ended it. WOW!!!

That's an understatement, the initial save was terrible. If he hadn't been face down on the ice the rebound wouldn't have been so bad.

Hope the Blackhawks can finish off the comeback.
 
I can't believe it. Canucks had all the chances, all the shots, all the play, and a bad rebound with Luongo flopping around on his belly does them in this game.

I just hope Schneider is okay.

What a great day of hockey. Very exciting finishes in the Flyers and Blackhawks wins. Plus, Nashville won its first series ever as a franchise.

Honestly, even if the Hawks had lost I would have been very satisfied with the game. Very exciting game to watch back and forth. This year of the playoffs is fantastic so far, with the exception of the Yotes/Wings series, which was just a blowout.
 
Amazing win for Chitown.

Hey, we got to see 4 teams get screwed in 1 day. What I'm referring to is that the last team to win a Game 7 in the first round and then go on to win the Cup was... the '92 Pens. All in all, the odds are stacked very high against Philly/Buffalo/Vancouver/Chicago and the toll of these long series' doesn't bode well for all four. God, the odds of Chicago coming back down 0-3 and then winning the Cup has to be 100,000,000:1!

There you go again, misusing and misunderstanding statistics.
 
In the OT Blackhawks iced the puck with their 4th line who as already on the ice for a very long time. The refs call out the ice crew despite the Canucks having the offensive faceoff.

Any idea why the refs would do that?
