Hope that's not still the case with the star players.

I think they do but in this case with the canucks they deserve all the penalties they got. If anything they were lucky Tores was not suspended for a few games for the seabrook hit. Game 5, troy Brouwer was elbowed in the head when he chased a POS defensemen behind the net and then gets piled up on by a goon. Dave Bolland got his head driven into the boards in game 5 by the guy he creamed in game 6. The Sedin twins have been taking dives in games. Game 5 one got touched and fell to the ice in the first 20 seconds of the game. Toews should have gotten a penalty shot on one of his plays where he was tackled on a break away in game 5.

4th- I was talking about the NBA there. Totally agree with you that the Canucks have deserved every penalty they've gotten especially since they're the ones that decided to thug it up late in the blowouts in games 4 & 5.

Basketball talked in the Blackhawks thread? WTH. lol


San Jose, your ass is next.

The Captain has tied the game and Crawford has been unbelievable. I can't believe we tied the game so late but now it is time to win the game and prepare to eliminate another team we spanked last year in the playoffs. Crawford is the MVP so far in this game for the hawks. LETS GO HAWKS, LETS GO HAWKS.

It is a very say day in Hockey because of the OT loss to the Canucks. I got to give credit to the canucks defense on making some great plays on stopping the Hawks offense. The Canucks were the better team yesterday yet we almost pulled it off. One good thing I can say about this team is they are young and we have a goalie of the future. If it were not for Cory Crawford we would not have made the playoffs. He was awesome last night and he carried this team. Some of the other young players we have matured during the playoffs and they will be even more exciting to see play next year.
