Western Conference Final

[NYCSox]

What I would have given for a Bruins/Kings SCF. It would have been epic.

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

Not surprisingly, the Blackhawks have come out flying

 

[lars10]

Crawford has been giving up some really soft goals... 3-2 Chicago

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

All in all, I think LA is probably fine only being down one

 

[TSC]

Tied now.

 

[FelixMantilla]

Kings go ahead on a really weird shot.

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

And now it's tied 4-4

 

[Ed Hillel]

Crawford still having glove-side issues, I see.

 

[Fred in Lynn]

Call looked weak.

 

[FelixMantilla]

Oduya went down pretty easily.

 

[Ed Hillel]

Dive.

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

League doesn't want the defending champs out in 5

 

[Ed Hillel]

Bye bye knee.

 

[Fred in Lynn]

That was weird.

 

[Fred in Lynn]

Quick is so...um...Quick, side-to-side.

 

[Ed Hillel]

Great job by Quick on those two shots.

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

I have to think that the Blackhawks' bench is going to be really, really short in OT

 

[TFP]

This is incredible hockey. 
 
Saad has also been an absolute beast tonight.

 

[Boston Brawler]

Wow

 

[cshea]

This pace is off the charts fast. I'm exhausted just watching.

 

[FelixMantilla]

This game is crazy!

 

[TFP]

My word.
 
I want to Chicago to win here just so we can see more games like this.

 

[The Napkin]

Holy crap I'm tired just watching. Damn.

 

[SoxFanInPdx]

Unbelievable game. They're letting a lot of stuff go on in this one.

 

[The Napkin]

This pace is off the charts fast. I'm exhausted just watching.

*fist bump*

 

[The Napkin]

7:56 without a whistle. Unreal.

 

[Boston Brawler]

That last 8 minutes are a prime example of why playoff hockey is better than the NBA playoffs.

 

[Ed Hillel]

Just watching this is making me tired.

 

[Ed Hillel]

Curse word!

 

[BoSoxFink]

How can anyone not think playoff hockey is the best?

 

[mabrowndog]

That last 8 minutes are a prime example of why playoff hockey is better than the NBA playoffs.

 
No shit. That whole 20-minute OT period was off the charts in terms of energy, pace, intensity and suspense.

 

[FelixMantilla]

Appears to be a much better brand of hockey than Montreal-New York.

 

[LogansDad]

How can anyone not think playoff hockey is the best?

Because they are stupid?

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

This is incredible hockey. 
 
Saad has also been an absolute beast tonight.

I love his game

 

[mabrowndog]

Wow. The Hawks survive.

 

[LogansDad]

Yes!!!! More of this please!!!!  I want a 7th game!

 

[FelixMantilla]

Saad with the beautiful assist. Great game. Now I go to bed!

 

[mabrowndog]

Saad has also been an absolute beast tonight.

 
That was quite the capper on a brilliant night.

 

[ifmanis5]

Good goal. Quick bought the fake but it was a good finish. Would like to see this go 7.

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

Chicago isn't going to go quietly.  Game 6 will be fantastic, because no way in hell LA wants to come back to the UC for a Game 7

 

[Boston Brawler]

1-0 LA

 

[Boston Brawler]

Kane scores on the PP to tie it up.

 

[lars10]

And Smith makes it 2-1 on a really slick goal.

 

[Boston Brawler]

Oh my God how did Sharp miss that?

 

[lars10]

Oh my God how did Sharp miss that?

Actually a save by Quick…geez
 
Didn't see that on the first pass…but man he got across fast.

 

[Boston Brawler]

Actually a save by Quick…geez
 
Didn't see that on the first pass…but man he got across fast.

Yeah I missed it too. Got enough of it.

 

[ForceAtHome]

Quick is incredible, though Sharp would love to have that one back I'm sure.

 

[Boston Brawler]

Crawford and Quick bump heads skating off after the 2nd.

 

[Fred in Lynn]

Damn ping pong balls.

 

[lars10]

This has been another really enjoyable game…particularly since I don't really care who wins…but man it's back and forth.
