GAME OF THE NIGHT: Calgary Flames at Chicago Blackhawks, Thursday April 16, 2009, 830 pm ET

The kids got their first taste of post-season celebration. Let's see if they can build on that.

The Blackhawks have begun to play 'their' game.

Barker's goal was the payoff for the outstanding work of Jonathan Toews...this kid just NEVER stops working.

Great duel between Khabby and Kipper.

The key will be whether the Hawks' role players, ie Byfuglien, Ladd, Burish, Eager, Brouwer...raise their physical play to the level of which they are capable.

Excellent contest!
:D:

Great shift from Toews on the 'Hawks goal.

A thrilling period coming up...and a power play...

Cammi just whacked Havlat with a elbow right in schnozz and gets the gate...

GO FLAMES GO!!!

Superb play by the Flames and wicked shot by Cammi to redeem himself as they go up one...

...and a HUGE unassisted goal by Marty Havlat to tie it!

OUTSTANDING SAVES AT BOTH ENDS...

LET'S GO BLACKHAWKS!

Former Sens tearing it up tonight, good thing we have Jason Spezza!!

It's a pretty good game... Since the Havlat goal Chicago has been the better team!

A tremendous game in the tradition of Hawks-Flames battles...
:##:

AND ON TO OVERTIME!!!

:%%:

I thought Bolland was going to score there.

Off to OT we go.

What are you saying, that we should have kept Havlat?

Nope, had to go, but we got Priesing and Hennisy for him... another Muckler move.

Yeah, that was just a terrible trade. Barinka's another piece.

The last piece, though, was the 2nd round pick we used to take Wiercioch, so hopefully he can redeem it a little.

I agree he had to go. He needed a change of scenery. There's a strong possibility that's the case with a couple guys on the team right now.

Yuuuuup, oh well, Im just gonna enjoy this great game, Havlat has been awesome so far, same with Barker.

Anahiem is going to win that series! If there is a team SJ did not want to play first round, its the Ducks.

Once again, glad we have Spezza, haha.

HAWKS WIN!!!!
