Second City Hockey strongly encourages you to listen to Mastodon on the way to the game tonight.
Whatever the hell was the cause was for the slow start and shitty play on Tuesday, lets hope it's long gone. Everyone tosses around the "must-win" game but really it ain't over til it's over. The Hawks haven't been on the brink of elimination yet.
But they're close.
A loss tonight means they'll have to put up a herculean effort against the Canucks who still have two more games at home - something that pretty much spells doom for the Hawks.
The closest they had to a "must-win" in the last series was Game 5 with the series tied at two and the danger of the Flames getting back into it. This dwarfs that game.
So what can the Hawks do to fix the piss-poor effort the last time around? Well for one they're going to have to change their style to play against the trap - something the pretty much refused to do the last game.
Vancouver is going to try to make the game mind-numbingly boring with the trap. They hate fun and excitement and all that is good - that's their way.
The Hawks seem to already know what they need to do - They need to start strong (They are allowed to score the first goal, it's their right) and not be cute with the puck. However just because they aren't going to be looking for the beautiful pass does not mean the mongoloid behind you yelling "shoot!" is right. Dump the puck, skate, get it back - work to get a quick quality shot - don't look for the highlight pass.
Get people back in Luongo's face. Make sure he's very well acquainted with the smell of Burish or Buff's ass.
Demitra is probably done for the rest of the series and Salo has one hell of a UTI or the clap. You'd think that'd be good news for the Hawks but it didn't seem to matter last time.
Also, stay out of the fraking box.

Time for Havvy and Toews to regain the scoring
mantle they’ve passed off to others as the playoffs have progressed. We need our goal scorers to score goals. “Shoooooooooot!”
Got more soul than a sock with a hole.
In all honesty, I get really excited when I see our guys about to drill someone into the boards.
Especially if it’s Badger or Sunshine.

What section
is the guy who yells this in? My friend has season tickets and he said theres a guy right by him who yells this at every opportunity(including when the hawks have the puck).
You and I are gonna live forever
Section EVERYWHERE
By the 3rd I’m usually yelling “PASS!” Just to shake things up.
It’s pretty ridiculous to tell professional hockey players to shoot, although if it was ever necessary, game 3 was it. Too many cutesy passes looking for the perfect shot. Did they not realize that almost all of our goals in the first 2 games were on rebounds?

you mean there is just one?
I have to admit I have been known to yell “hit somebody” during particularly boring games, but only once. Or if someone totally wiff’s on a hit attempt I might shout something like “use your purse next time” but it is like 2 or 3 times a game tops and isn’t just random repetitive yelling.

nice job
on the BSG reference
I have tickets to game 5 (I live along the border in Washington), and I was hoping to see the Hawks close it out in the Garage, but I’ll settle for seeing them go up 3-2 and finish the Nucks off at the UC!
Go Hawks!
I actually hadn't listened to Crack the Skye until today.
I listened to it on my way home from work/school for the first time. And I’m actually giving Leviathan a second listen right now. Blood Mountain, until now, was really the only album I had spent a lot of time with — it’s been on periodic repeat for a few years now.
I don’t know why I never branched out past Blood Mountain — I often have a tendency to eschew a band’s other material when I find an album I really, really like. It’s almost like I’m afraid to “ruin” the band by listening to the other stuff. Take, for example, Bad Brains, who were (in my opinion) fucking terrible after their ‘82 self-titled album. Thankfully that album is so fucking awesome that, hard as it may try, “I Against I” can’t ruin it.
NOW STOP IT RIGHT HERE
Actually, saying "I Against I" is terrible may be too much, as it's an entirely different style of music.
But it certainly doesn’t sound like the same Bad Brains.

One of the greatest albums ever created. Although the Rat Music for Rat People version of “How Low Can A Punk Get” is nothing shy of mindblowing.

Speaking of my Zune. I’m freaking out as I’m leaving work today as my Zune isn’t on my desk. I realize I left it in my car and also realized that it had been playing since lunch. Turn the car on and what song is playing? Chelsea Dagger. Hope to hear it several more times tonight!
sorry
not a metal fan but I’ll go with some My Bloody Valentine on the drive home because their band name simply sounds like a metal band.
That drives me batshit
when a band has a metal name but is clearly not metal. …And They Shall Know Us By the Trail of Dead was the first that I remember thinking, “ is a metal name!” Disappointment soon followed. My Bloody Valentine is dripping with emo.

Trail of Dead, as stated above, are not a metal band. But they are a pretty decent art-rock band. Source Tags & Codes is a damn solid record.
Cave In, which is clearly a metal band name started out as a metal band, but then turned into a space-rock/prog band, so do they count in the category of “Non-metal bands with metal band names”?
ST&C was one of my favorite albums in high school.
And one of the only albums I listened to in high school that I’m not in the least bit ashamed to say I still enjoy to this day.
NOW STOP IT RIGHT HERE
MBV
isn’t emo, not really even close. I suppose you can call it what it’s called by UK music hacks – “shoegaze” or even “dreampop” but it’s not emo. Most of the bands that “fit” into this broad category are some form of mixture of Jesus & Mary Chain and/or the Cocteau Twins…neither of which are emo either. The atmospherics of the Cocteaus and the noise/feedback/heavy usage of effects pedals of the Mary Chain. Regardless Loveless is the best album in the last 25 years imo.
I don’t see the “artrock” of Trail of Dead either. They’re contrived stoner screamo…and I offer this review from Magnet.
“because the late 90’s and early 00’s were so boring, the members of Trail of Dead looked to be on the brink of success due solely to the fact that they smashed their shit up onstage and usually lived up to the rumors that they were walking garbage cans. What didn’t work was their sound (adult-contemporary screamo) combined with their age(pushing if not exceeding 30) at a time when every early 20’s asshole with a guitar had already learned to ripoff Wire and Gang of Four riffs”.
I agree with most of that because Wire and early GO4 happen to be two of my fave bands.

Congrats, I hope you didn't fuck up your freshman year too much.
I’m about to finish my fifth and last year of college. Tomorrow is a half-day at the school where I student teach, then I’m done. I get to sit around and scratch my balls while the rest of the university takes finals.

Congrats to you both!
Great accomplishments! Let’s hope the Hawks give you another reason to celebrate!
If I can't be a good example, I'll just be a horrible warning
Thats what I will be doing my last year of school.
What grade do you plan on teaching?
Lets go Hawks! Detroit Sucks!
I keep hearing about Mastodon
Now that the SCH boys are recommending it I have to download it. Porcupine Tree, Pelican, and Opeth are also really good, but they have a lot of space-rock thrown in so you probably don’t want any Hawks fans driving to tonight’s game listening to them. I will stick with Ministry’s “Let’s Go” which will probably make me want to drive 120 mph. WARPAINT!!!

If you guys like weird-as-fuck prog-metal concept albums,
check out Devin Townsend’s Ziltoid the Omniscient. To quote Wikipedia:
The album is a fictional concept album about an extraterrestrial being named Ziltoid from the planet Ziltoidia 9. Ziltoid travels to Earth in search for “the ultimate cup of coffee”.
Then again, Wikipedia just informed me that Devin Townsend is from B.C., so fuck him (temporarily).

I can’t recall ever having 5 video feeds. That’s crazy. Then again, who knows how many will work? Here’s some beer:
Avery Maharaja
I’m not sure if you’ll be able to find this beer in the Chicago area, so maybe it’s not even fair to post it. My brother recently got four bottles of this in a trade, and I can’t really imagine going wrong with a 9.7% ABV imperial IPA. I won’t be able to give my personal opinion on this beer for another week or so, but everything I’ve read about it says it’s pretty damn good. Actually, after checking this page, you’ll be able to get it in Chicago — just click that link and Ctrl+F “Illinois.” In fact, it looks like some bars might even have it on tap — even better. This beer post just became a lot more legitimate. Go drink this beer, because I can’t at the moment (damn you, Iowa).
Back to the matter at hand: let’s win tonight. I won’t offer any feigned expertise, because everything that I would say has already been said, and it probably wouldn’t be very insightful either way. Let’s just win.
Go Hawks!
NOW STOP IT RIGHT HERE

Drinking Tonight...
…some Sleeman’s Light!.Now that is also some great shit!!! Sleeman’s Brewery-a great Canadian tradition since 1834!
As for the game tonight...
…the Hawks HAVE TO score the first goal tonight (No shit!) but also add on to the lead just as they did in Game 5 against Calgary. It’s finally time for Toews, Havlat, and Keith to start playing up to their standards for it’s extremely difficult to win in the playoffs without your best players being at their best! The Hawks are the better team so let’s start to play like it!
Hawks should win tonight (I’m confident) for it’s only a matter of time they won on Versus (when exclusively) for they are 0-4 this season.
So let’s be loud and proud-LET’S GO HAWKS!!!
I think I'd be okay with the Canucks scoring the first goal as long as the Blackhawks score more total goals throughout the course of the game.
That’s just me, though.
NOW STOP IT RIGHT HERE
Any way the Hawks can get a win is O.K. with me...
…bit for some reason or another if the Hawks could score first it could break Vancouver’s 1st period momentum and/or confidence they have in the 1st. Not to mention how different of a group the Hawks look when they scored first in Games 5 and 6 against Calgary! But who knows right? Anyways, hopefully the Hawks can get a win tonight I think we can both agree on that!!!
HOCKEY
please let me see the canucks defensive players chasing the puck behind there own net tonight. there’s only one hockey night i want to see, chicago night please.
I have mixed feelings
lovin the fact we are actually shooting the puck
but lets put one in
Lets go Hawks! Detroit Sucks!
We're getting good chances, and that's all you can ask for.

We're really slacking in the comment dept.

HOCKEENIGHT.COM...home of FRIDAY NIGHT FIGHTS and LEAVE IT TO BETTMAN...now with PODCASTING!!!
This is off topic but,
As we are all most likely dedicated hawk fans here, do bandwagon fans bother anyone else?
I don’t know how to explain it, I guess it’s just that I am a fan through thick and think, but a lot of people (mostly girls—but not in all cases) only start rooting for them once its playoff time.
Maybe its only me?
Lets go Hawks! Detroit Sucks!
It's bound to happen no matter the sport.
as long as they’re genuinely interested in it, the more the merrier. My girlfriend barely watched any Hawks games with me over the regular season, but she’s watched a good portion of the playoff games and has actually gotten into them. She asks questions and shows interest in the game, so I’ll take it.
NOW STOP IT RIGHT HERE
Well I am a freshman, well was a freshman in college until today
and my girlfriend is a senior in high school. A lot of her friends brag to me about how good the hawks are and try talking to me like they know more than me. Maybe I’m the ignorant one?
Lets go Hawks! Detroit Sucks!
LOL
Member the Bulls back in the ‘90s? I wasn’t a fan, and all of a sudden that’s all anyone in my office could talk about. But I refused, in principal, as I didn’t want to be one of those bandwaggoners.

I think it was a good first period for us. We’re gonna tire them out, and we’re learning how to play at their game.
Really. I know this.
If I can't be a good example, I'll just be a horrible warning
Sounds good to me.
The comment I made right below you mentions tiring them out as well. So if two people had the same thought, it has to be true… right?

First period stats
Shots: Hawks 8 — Nucks 4
Hits: Hawks 17 — Nucks 13
Faceoffs: Hawks 6 — Nucks 7
Blocked Shots: Hawks 3 — Nucks 1
-Keith is leading us in ice time with 7:09; not far behind are Sharp (really?) with 6:53 and Walker (wtf?) with 6:50.
-Sharp is murkin’ fools with 4 hits, Buff and Ladd have each thrown in 3 of their own.
-Havlat and Toews each have 2 shots.
Look for the ‘Nucks D-men to wear out quick tonight — Mitchell has been on the ice for 8:51 so far, and five other players have over 7 minutes (compared to our ONE player with 7+ minutes). If they’re going to throw their D core out there with reckless abandon, let’s make sure they skate a lot.

that’s a good reason to dislike him…I dunno, I wouldn’t want some dude I don’t know putting their arm around me either…fan or not.

Bummer.
Wasn’t O’Brien the one to get called on the hooking “penalty” against Buff that other game? Too bad it didn’t work out the same way.
Wow, totally did not expect to see such a low scoring game.
If I can't be a good example, I'll just be a horrible warning
No adjustments made for this one
Still way too cute, trying to make way too many moves, that last powerplay was pathetic as well

-Bolland is now 4-1 on faceoffs while Toews is a neutral 5-5.
-Ryan Johnson is smoking us to the tune of 7-3 from the spot.
-Bieksa is a thug.

1. Did anyone think Bolland was hooked?
2. How do the players on the ice know when it’s time for a shift change?

2) when you are a forward and get beat on a backcheck by Alexander Edler chances are you’re gassed.
by Crease Monkey on May 7, 2009 9:39 PM CDT up reply actions
one thing I'll say
in fairness of VAN, they haven’t taken a bunch of cheap shots at the skill guys like Kane and Havlat like Calgary did. That said, I still want to see someone punch Bieksa in the nose.
yeah
and that hit that…I think it was Pyatt put on Toews last game that was called for boarding was cheap.

go over to check out a Wings blog after Game 3? I bet they were ballistic with total objectivity. It was a bad call obviously but they should have never had that PP goal as Wiz was elbowed by Holmstrom with a no call.

Has got to learn to adjust his game according to team needs. Hate to rag on him, but he didn’t seem to get the point that he couldn’t just cruise in, shoot and score all on his own.

And
Thanks all for putting up with my inane comments, as I usually share them with my son, but he’s at some stupid convention and Hubby doesn’t seem to be a hockey fan (note to self: put that on my list of questions to ask before I say I do again).

I don’t think your comments scan as inane. You might be right about screening better with the “next” husband, but I am happier with the fact that my current wife doesn’t watch Hockey, that way she can keep the kid out of the room while I “cuss like a sailor restricted to ship in an Asian port.” props to my departed father for that one My last wife, or as we call her #3, loved the Scum, but didn’t let me know until after we were married for a couple of years.

just fantastic. hawks outplayed them from start to finish but luongo was just too damn good…until he wasn’t. so happy tonight. exhausted….if it had gone to 2 OT i’m not sure i could have gone to work tomorrow!
but i can’t sleep yet bc i’m watching scum-ducks….i can’t choose who i want to win this series….on the one hand a wings-hawks conf final would be absolutely amazing, and it’s not like the ducks will be an easy out with hiller…..but on the other hand they’re the scum and i can’t actively root for them….thoughts?

PP – Hawks – 0/2, Van – 0/1
Wow
Surprised to see the big tilt towards the Hawks from the faceoff dot. I felt like we lost every key draw of the night. Maybe it was just my frustration from the trap.
