The kids doin it big

No the message is stay away from the front of our net.

That would be a lot more believable if they dropped the gloves when Quick was getting demolished in previous series. Instead you push a guy that was basically standing there and didn't even spray Quick a good 10 seconds after the whistle after Mitchell already gave him a shove.

That should be a slashing penalty on Towes after the whistle

 

[smackdown380]

They had that! Took to long to develop

Pearson has been outstanding, TT up and down. I like these guys in the lineup

OK I get it. You didn't like the shove by Martinez. To me it's just part of the game. There are little scrums like that all the time when play is stopped around either net. What I didn't like was the flop not getting called along with the shove.

Its the WCF, he was starting a scrum long after whistle for no reason and got burned. That to is part of the game weather we like it or not. Difference in opinion

 

[LALakersboy24.7]

That Turnover killed us.

 

[smackdown380]

After dominating most of the period Chicago scores, great

 

[smackdown380]

That Turnover killed us.

All it takes is one play

 

[Bluesince62]

What was Schultz doing there? Had the boards free to clear the neutral zone

 

[ChiefsDdgersLakersKings24]

Need to stop giving up goals like this. they get one freaking opportunity and they convert it after we possess the puck most of the period and we are losing again.

 

[oxnardkingsfan]

Deflected in past Quick by his own teammates. Tough one.

Doughty just got elbowed.. no call

 

[pete6835]

Is this game in slow motion or is the ice that bad?

 

[smackdown380]

Doughty just got elbowed.. no call

He didn't dive/flop so how could they call it

 

[Kings4OT]

Cliffords been noticeably better this game, seems to be creating some pressure

 

[smackdown380]

Crawford leaving juicy rebounds

 

[smackdown380]

Power Play!

 

[Bluesince62]

Finally a PP
