My Hawks hatred is nearing Flyers/Bruins territory

I hate them only because they are the team we could have been

this.
I watch Toews and think, "why can't our top-level guys play like this in the playoffs???"

Hockey gods laughing at the Pens right now...

Habs are done.

and the Rags are handed a gift......

UNFREAKINBELIEVABLE.

I can't stand it.

I would actually root for the Rangers over Chicago.

I'll be routing for the Eastern Conference winner regardless of who it is. Another cup for the Hawks means they are what we all hoped the Penguins would be. Screw that. A Kings victory would make them the second team to win their second cup since the Penguins won in 2009 and would give Mike Richards his second cup victory. Vomit.

My preference order is:

Habs
Kings
Rangers
Blackhawks

This doesn't really make sense, unless you pretty much know for a fact that someone would've taken a run at Price and injured him.

Maybe even over mike richards/jeff carter. Stranger things have happened in a series. Don't count
montreal out yet.

What's all the hawks hate about? Kane being a tool bag off the ice? Toews being falsely anointed?

I'd prefer they win at this point.

Yeah I don't get it. I mean, I want the Kings because I love Kopitar, but it's not that big a deal.

Other than the little puke Kane, I like the Blackhawks. And the home town boy (kind of) Saad gets another Cup.

Any team but the Rangers, and I'm happy.

[Pitts]

I like Chicago.

I will join those speculating Dustin Tokarski gets the start tonight. Not convinced, but signs are pointing in that direction.

i like a lot of the guys from both western teams. i really like patrick kane. i actually don't think i dislike any players on the hawks. can't say that about any other team left.

Do you like or dislike banana pudding and why?
It's all subjective.

[newarenanow]

Feel horrible for the Habs and Price.

[count2infinity]

ewww Blackhawks bananas? no thank you.

Stop with the Pens wish they won Game 7. Price would be healthy, because not one of our players go to the front of net, let alone do a baseball slide into Price.

The Hawks hate is dumb, as well.

[MalkinIsMyHomeboy]

This is fate laughing at us for blowing the 3-1 lead against the Rags. Not only do the Bruins lose but the Habs lose probably their most important piece.

Not sure how you can extrapolate anyone on the Pens would ever get close enough to the crease to hurt Price. This is probably the 5th time I've seen someone post someplace today that we would be facing the Habs without Price when that would not be the case at all.

hey, Megna put Mason on the bench. Not that DB would ever dare play him...

The only Pen that could do what Kreider did speed wise is Gibbons, but I'm sure if Gibber flew into Price like that it would be akin throwing a rolled up piece of paper at Price.

I've heard from a pretty reliable source that they are going to go with Dustin Tokarski over Peter Budaj. Tokarski is a very interesting goalie. He plays, and looks for that matter, like it is 1987. He's got the athletic ability of a house plant, but somehow he stops pucks. His technique and position are phenomenal, but he looks like a fish out of water when he has to make a reactionary save.

Oh, so he's Tim Thomas ver.3.0?

I'd be real surprised if Tokarski goes in over Budaj, who isn't a shoddy back-up, but these are now desperate times for the Habs and MT might make that move. Habs might respond very well this game and play it really tight, but this is a huge blow for their chances, as it is any team at this stage of the playoffs that suddenly loses their #1 goaltender who was excelling.

[meow]

No way. If anything, he is the anti-Tim Thomas.

They were closer to the blue-line than the crease, and it cost Megna a week of injury time.

breaking news from Pierre: Tokarski gets the start for game 2.

Hopefully we get a similar call from Pierre tonight.
