Blackhawks and Coyotes who cares round 1 series thread

Doan with the winner.

Ponicks' lack of skill has become very evident the past two postseasons, I really don't think this year is gonna be any different. I give Tippett a ton of credit for getting Ponicks to the playoffs, because it's pretty impressive, but when you have two teams playing every bit as hard, the one with superior talent is gonna win in a 7 game series.

Goddammit, Chicago. I need sleep.

Ponicks with tons of chances but they're missing the net on almost every one.

 

[Winged_Wheel88]

Phoenix with a ton of chances at the mid-way point.

The Pacific Division *does* go 3-0. Wow.

 

[Destroydacre]

Exciting game. Glad playoff hockey is back.

Thought for sure Chicago would win once it got to OT.

Arena exploded when the goal went in. Happy for the few, but dedicated, fans in Phoenix.

Looked pretty full, at least down low. Was good to see...

Yeah I wouldn't mind seeing the Yotes win this series for no other reason than to win one for the die hards before the franchise packs up and leaves town.

Yeah it looked pretty full although it was fairly loud when Chicago tied it late in the third. Quite a few Hawks fans in attendance.

Cool game. Go Coyotes.

Very entertaining game tonight. Thought Chicago was the better team for the most part, but way too many turnovers up the ice. Kind of fitting it ended as a result of an idiotic icing by the Hawks + lost face off.

Still think the Blackhawks offense will eventually wear Smith down.

 

[CalamityX11]

I luv the game.... freaking exciting from end to end. The hawks didn't play well enough to win so glad to see Phx win it. I did pick hawks to win the series though.... not giving me the best confidence right now.

NHL might have to apologize again for another blown call by the zebras leading to a goal...

Refs miss too many men on ice call before Coyotes’ 1-1 goal | ProHockeyTalk

Yeah, had to hear all about that from the completly unbiased national TV announcer that is from Chicago...

 

[rares]

Yeah, definitely no attendance issues last night in Phoenix:

 

[OregonDucks]

GO YOTES!!

 

[BlueandWhiteForever]

Yeah, definitely no attendance issues last night in Phoenix:

What do you expect, it's the playoffs. The same thing happened last year vs the Wings, but once again this season the fans disappeared.

Plus that arena was at least 30% Hawks fans.
