Holy crap. Just drinking my morning coffee. What the hell? I am too old for this late night stuff.

2 D. Keith D 0 1 1 -1 2 4 1 6 2 0 - 4:34 4:11 49:51
4 N. Hjalmarsson D 0 0 0 -2 2 0 0 6 1 1 - 0:00 4:33 47:35
7 B. Seabrook D 0 1 1 1 0 0 7 2 3 1 - 0:45 4:42 47:46
27 J. Oduya D 0 1 1 1 0 1 4 1 6 1 - 0:00 4:42 46:06

Wonder if CHI D will have anything left in their tank for the rest of the series. Boys earned their paycheck(que) last night. Oh wait, the players dont get paid for the playoffs. Nvm.

And just for fun

26 K. Cumiskey D 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 2 3 0 - 0:00 0:00 18:34
44 K. Timonen D 0 0 0 -1 0 0 3 0 1 0 - 0:00 0:00 16:45

Only chance TB or NYR will have is for this series to go 5 more 3OT games.

Duncan Keith has one of those enlarged hearts that pumps more than mortal men, he will be fine. I am sure most of their lives they were up at dawn and playing til dark every single day. They are used to these long minutes, they are not used to getting pummeled every time they touch the puck though.

So, he has a gear that no one else has?

well trying to not compare him to Lance Armstrong, who also possesses the superhuman heart.

How about the Shaw headbutt goal?

How about the majority thinking it was legal?

Two things from last night's game the competition committee should look into: the ice scrape after an icing in OT and the header goal.

I'm all for header goals as that takes some serious talent and I've only seen it twice in my lifetime. It's not like Shaw bicycle kicked it in now.

I would have liked to have seen Butch Goring head a puck into the net...

I have no love for the Hawks but that said, fuck Anaheim in their stupid fucking faces.

This.

I don't care if you are a Duck Fan or a fan of the Blackhawks, last night's game was THEE best hockey game I have ever watched. As much as I hate the Anaheim Ducks, neither teams deserve to lose 'that' game - 3 OTs over 115 SOG, a weird header, (dis-allowed), and some of the absolute best GOAL STANDS by both goalies.

If this series goes 5-6-7 games we will not get a better game last nights..

While last night's game was very entertaining (and I only saw the second and third overtime), I still think the Kings/Blackhawks overtime game 5 from last season was the best playoff hockey I've seen in 20 plus years.

Agreed.

To the best of my recollection, I'd have to go back to the previously mentioned 4OT scoreless thriller between Buffalo and NJ.

This was an incedible game

And I'm not that concerned with Chicago's stamina - when you have experience like them and you're this close to the finish line, I don't think there is much of an issue

It was an unbelievable game. Neither team deserved to lose. I hope every game the rest of the series is just as good.

I've got to believe the Hawks top 4 D could be in trouble the longer this series goes.

One thing's for sure, the Ducks got plenty of iron last night...

It would be nice to see the grump Milbury pulled from the intermissions. no wonder why JR always argues with the guy.
