Good for you...I was never any good at golf....appreciate the skill required though.

Hockey is my game...

...and what a game we have...

samualsson gives the wings the 2-0 series lead

a tough loss...

wow... Brian Campbell is 7+ million dollars of uselessness

what a stupid Donkey turnover

...but the Hawks played head to head with the Champions.

OK...a brave effort. Back to Chicago...

Osgood is absolutly money... dont care what people say, he is one of the best of all time.

When it matters, few show up like Osgood.

Maybe you throw players under the bus on your team...

But the Blackhawks don't.

Campbell made a mistake...the Wings capitalized.

Seabrook made a mistake...the Wings capitalized.

Their excellence helped the team get here.

The Warriors of the Blackhawk Tribe win together...and they hold their heads high in defeat together.

Both goalies were money goalies tonight...facing close to forty shots each.

Captain Toews led by example...and the whole team played hard.

So no excuses, no complaints.

You go home...you regroup...close the book on this one...get ready for the next one.

The Hawks gave the Wings a REAL scare. Now they need to turn that effort into a win.

Friday will be here soon.

The United Center will be rockin'.

As Coach Quenneville said in his press conference..."Move forward."

This will be very tough for the Hawks. It seems that every time they make a mistake it winds up in the net. For a young team to play under that kind of pressure to be perfect, wow. The one area where the Hawks seemed to have an advantage was in goal, but Osgreat took that away last night. Yes, you can say that both goalies were "money" but one of them faced more shots and gave up fewer goals.

Tukker picked Detroit in 5 in the bracket pool and he just might be getting those bonus points).

I don't think the Wings were given anything except more of a resolve to close out the series sooner rather than later. If anything this showed the Hawks that even if they outplay the Wings they still end up on the wrong side of the Win Loss Column.

They need to stop coughing up the puck and having it end up in the back or their net. This could be a very short series...

Obviously the Hawks have to take both home games. They fully deserved to get out of Detroit with a split. Bad break. Go Hawks.

Every time I read one of DTR's posts... I hear it in my head like that movie preview guy's voice sounds on those trailers...

"It was a time of hardship and desperation... the Warriors were clearly not prepared for what was about to come... they will be no match for the mighty Wing Machine..."

That's a TOTALLY unnecessary comment.
