INSTANT CLASSIC.

[Adman103]

Yea!  Go Hawks!  What a game- you could tell how exhausted everyone was…

[mclaincausey]

Yeah it was ugly until that beautiful double redirect GWG!

[JCar2666]

It's only a classic when your team wins.  I'm pissed

[mclaincausey]

I dunno, I'd still call it a classic even if we lost at home in triple OT, though giving up a two goal lead always stings.

I just wanted to go to bed by the end of the damn thing. Good thing both teams get an extra day's rest.

[Adman103]

Well, the Bruins took the second game…  Crazy OTs in this series...

[mclaincausey]

Yeah what a bummer. Another waved off goal too.

Nail biter of a game four!  Can't wait for Saturday night!

That was a weird one for sure. I'll take it. I loved the energy at least if not the turnovers and Crow's glove.

Any time you can make your opposing goalie so this:

That's an incredible gif.  Love it.  It's a couple of minutes into the third period of game 6- tied 1 to 1.

[JCar2666]

The Bruins coughed that one up like idiots.  Congrats to the Blackhawks

[mclaincausey]

Sorry man. Great series, both are worthy champions.

[JCar2666]

Ill live.  Both worthy but Blackhawks clearly wanted it more

[Adman103]

It was a great series to watch either way- some really great hockey from both teams.

[mclaincausey]

I haven't seen a cleaner series with more mutual respect between player, town and fan in a while. I saw a couple of editorials out of the Boston press that were incredibly classy and respectful. I wouldn't spite the Bruins had things turned out another way for a minute.

Interesting article on why the Blackhawks sweater is so pretty and figuring the use of chain stitching as a big part of the aesthetic: http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/hockey/blackhawks/ct-hwk-0626-hawks-sweaters-20130626,0,5478485.story

That, sir, was a fine contest.

[bagley920]

It was. I kinda like Oshie and Kovalchuk being able to shoot over and over. Adds to the drama

I like it now, was a wreck then. We wasted a breakaway and a 4 on 3 and still beat them on their ice. Such a great game.
