[Insert "sweep" pun here] - Hawks Win Western Conference - Beat Sharks 4-2

After going down 2-0 nothing a little less than halfway through the second period, you could have expected to the Hawks to slow it down and regroup for a game 5 on Tuesday. They were without Andrew Ladd who was having a great series and their Norris Trophy nominated defeseman just had his face shattered by a clearing attempt, which directly led to the Sharks short-handed goal.
Instead the Hawks rallied. They chipped away with an ugly goal that was initially called off before the replays clearly showed it crossing the line. Then as the period neared an end, Dave Bolland beautifully tied up the stick of Logan Couture before skating out to the side and patiently waiting for an opportunity. Nabokov was down early and Bolland tied us up going into the third.
The third period started strong for the Sharks and they seemed like they were moving.. but it didn't last. In fact, despite working hard at the beginning of the period, they managed only 3 shots on net. For once it was the Sharks who couldn't seem to stay out of the box as they took three straight penalties. On the third, Buff put in his third game winning goal of the series. With just under a minute left, Versteeg iced it and Maria started pouring the shots.
Random Observations:
-With only 3 shots in the third and their lowest shot total of series by a mile, it's no surprise that it's the Sharks who have the awful looking Corsi Numbers this time around. A nice change of pace for the Hawks, only Hendry, Brouwer and Eager were negatives for the night... er afternoon.
-Duncan Keith is all that is man. Not only did he lose 7 teeth... one of them was stuck in the back of his throat. He missed only a few minutes before coming back and assisting on the Hawks second goal. He also still found time to lead all skaters with just over 29 minutes of ice time. I'm sure he's high as a fucking kite right now and it's well deserved. And speaking of losing teeth - if you haven't read this piece by Mirtle, please do so now.
-The Sharks still won the faceoff battle but it wasn't nearly as ugly as we've seen recently, 29-28. Dave Bolland didn't help much though winning only 3 of his 12 draws. That's at least a double digit percentage though.. good for him.
-Speaking of Bolland, the rat was once again a pest for Thornton. He shadowed him effectively, shut him down and very importantly, didn't take any penalties in this game. For the second game in a row we've seen some great work behind the net. With Bolland playing at the best we've probably ever seen him, we've got 4 Hawks that are frontrunners in the WCF MVP race... so who do you think it is?

While Niemi has made some awesome saves
and Buff has scored many Game winners, I still think our Captain thus far deserves MVP. I appreciate everyones efforts but without Toews skating like a beast I dont know if we would be this far!
They're talking THIS series
I agree that Toews has been the MVP of the entire playoffs, but without Niemi weathering the storm when the Sharks came balls out, this would have been a VERY different series.
Niemi had two games where he faced a combined 90+ shots
And his team won both of them. I imagine you can’t find more than a handful of games all season in the whole league where that happens.

They just did a “Most Interesting Man in Hockey” bit….but instead of Hossa, the made Barry Melrose “The Most Interesting Analyst in Hockey.”

What about the curse of Bettman?
If Philadelphia wins this East then that would make for the third straight year that the road team from the Winter Classic has made the Stanley Cup Finals with the first 2 times losing as well.
That would be just as much of a curse as Hossa, right?
2010 PLAYOFFS: CONFERENCE FINALS MVP
Dave Bolland - the vermin that gnawed on Thornton's brain while adding 2 goals and 1 assist in the series.
He mentioned it himself...
In so many words, he didn’t use “curse” But he came out and said he needed to do a little more in the finals to get change some minds about him.
Conference Finals MVP?
This round was a tough choice as there were a lot of choices out there. I still chose Bolland over the others for the main reason that he shut down the line of Marleau-Thornton-and Heatley so well that by Game 3 McLellan had to get the blender out and move them around. Let’s face it, Bolland altered the complexion of this series as he forced the Sharks to alter their gameplan by having to change their line combinations.
Now add to that his timely and crucial goal scoring with the go-ahead goal in Game 3 and beautiful assist in OT to Buff and his game-tying goal in the 2nd period in Game 4 and there you have it – the Conference Finals MVP.

I'll be honest
I was a little skeptical of labeling him the huge difference maker that he was in the Vancouver series after the first two games of the WCF. Strangely enough it’s his scoring that won me over in Games 3 and 4.
I’m going to abstain from voting though, because this was such a team effort that picking an MVP would be wrong.
Thats such a good point
Its really hard to chose someone for this round. It was such a strong team effort.

I had the exact same thought process
when I chose Bolland too. But those were four big time performers this series.
True, If Bolland doesn't shut down the Sharks top line
This would have been a different series. But each man on the ice contributed and acted like they were playing their best hockey of the season.

For me it was Aunty
But Bolly was a close second. His goal yesterday was a beauty. Working for the puck behind the net, moving to the circle, turning, waiting, shooting high. I really felt that was the thing that turned the game more than the first goal. OK, sounds like I’m making the case for Bolly but that’s just why it was a tough choice. Aunty stood on his head for most of the series and without that effort SJ would have won at least two of them.
Exactly - and that's a team "curse"
Hossa has taken 3 different teams to the Cup finals 3 yrs in a row. That’s an amazing feat, especially when there’s less than a 7% chance of any team making it to the finals each year and a 3% chance of winning it.

Little noticed mini-highlight from Game 4
NBC showed the reaction of the Hawks bench as they watched Versteeg’s empty netter go in. All the players on the bench are standing and when the puck goes in they all start jumping up and down like kids on Christmas morning, except Toews who immediately drops down onto the bench like the weight of the world just dropped off of his shoulders.
I'd love to see this
i watched the replay but didn’t notice it. Any chance you have a link?

The official highlight doesn't run long enough
I think I saw somewhere that CSN was replaying the game tonight at 10:30.
I liked the celebration on the ice on that one
between Bolland and Seabrook…Bolly gave Seabs a face wash and Seabs gave one right back to him. It was pretty funny.

"They are!" - Pat Foley

Great catch..
I’m just watching the game replay on the NHL Network and you’re right… he dropped down quick after that goal. He got up and hugged everyone after that though..
Can be seen here
Can anyone figure out who is sitting next to Toews that just leans over for a few seconds while everyone else celebrates? I think it might be Buff. The first number on the sleeve definitely looks like a 3.
Bolland’s face washing can be seen earlier in the clip.
I think it is Buff
definitely looks like a 3 and Versteeg is on the ice because it’s his goal, and I thought Bolland was on the ice too.
Well congrats
I knew, after having Niemi drive my fantasy team to the finals (it won, btw, so mojo?) that he wasn’t the weak link we were all looking for. Guess I hoped that wouldn’t be so decisive.
But seriously, good luck (not that I think you’ll need luck at all) in the finals and congratulations.
man
you got lucky with Niemi in your league, I bet you didnt think so when you got him

Gotta say Niemi
There was a ton of fantastic play by the Hawks all around, but on the whole, these were low-scoring games with a ton of shots by the Sharks. He basically stole games 1 and 3.
Let’s face it, when the Great Goalie Debates were going on, we all said that all the Hawks needed was average goaltending and they’d be fine. Well, with average goaltending in this series, the Hawks are 2-2 and we’re all wringing our hands over where the offense is. They needed him more than anyone to be above average this series, and as much as anyone, he delivered. If that’s not an MVP, I don’t know what is.
Seven teeth?!?
During the game I thought I heard one of the commentators (probably Doc) say it was four teeth. Holy shit Keith is fucking amazing. He shatters his face, comes back out to get an assist, and then leads the game for ice-time. Somebody get this man a Norris already! Jeez!

on the series
-So let me get this straight….
Toews – 1 goal
Versteeg – 1 goal (EN)
Kane – 0 goals
Hossa – 0 goals
and we won this series in four games?! This obviously points to our scoring depth, niemi, a shortened series, and a solid team effort, but I can’t help but think we may need to see better numbers from these guys in the next series
-It’s always easy to point Toews out and call him MVP of the series because he is solid both ways, but I didn’t think he was great (by Toews Standards) in this series. Buff was crazy clutch, but was somewhat unnoticable for large stretches of games 1, 3, and 4. I’m not hating on Toews and Buff, I’m just trying to point out that Bolland or Niemi should be mvp of this series. I could not get enough of Bolland’s play against the Sharks. I questioned how he could handle the size of the shark’s top line, and he dominated on both ends of the ice. I voted Bolland for MVP, but Niemi set the tone for the series in Game 1 and was solid for 4 games, he was a close second for me.
Ditto for CNS
all my favorite people are voting for bolland, yay
But when it was suggested to him that Toews v. Kane seems likely to become a sidebar to every future international hockey tournament, he smiled and said: "I'd like us to win something together, too."

Toews does a lot that doesn't show up on the score sheet
or does so in a less dramatic way – like assists and faceoff wins.
But he has, like Hossa dominated in all the areas that do not have a scoresheet summary.
He is our overall MVP so far, I’d have to say.
This series though? I have to give the nod to Niemi. If you’ll recall the Great Goalie Bloviation (and I really hate to make anyone do that), we were praying for merely competent/solid goaltending. Niemi stole a couple of these games (like a Luongo or Nabakov is SUPPOSED to do to you, at 5 or 10 times the price)
Confusion will be my epitaph.
not as I intended it
In my first point, I just wanted to point out that while the four guys I mentioned played real solid, it is nuts to think we swept a series against the top seed in the west with those goal numbers. I know that Hoss and Toews especially, do alot of things that don’t show up on the score sheet.
I was pretty frustrated with Toews yesterday though. He did end up being 11-20 at the dot, but it sure seemed like he got kicked out of a ton of draws, quite a few of which were on the power play. On the last powerplay, Malhotra dominated the Captain on clutch draw after clutch draw (untii Toews won the last one, resulting in a goal). Again, it sounds like I’m being way to harsh on the captain, I don’t intend that to be the message. I just wanted to see if anyone else noticed this yesterday.
Ditto for CNS
Faceoffs
I felt the linesman kept holding onto the puck several times for both teams. Also i know he was kicked out of a least 2 Fo’s for eithe Kane or Buff moving in too early. That he can’t control
Chicago Blackhawks: No Longer Rusted Steel on Slush!
Well,
but it sure seemed like he got kicked out of a ton of draws
is something I attribute to the general what-the-fuckishness © of the officiating. I mean, they missed a goal, while LOOKING RIGHT AT IT, where the puck was easily three inches inside the line.
I’m not really talking about penalties so much (but some of that was HUH?), but rather the offsides and icings.
teaching respect for the Indian, one Red Wing fan at a time.
I was looking at the ref on that goal too.
I couldn’t believe he had perfect positioning, appeared to be looking into the net, and yet he did not see what Hossa, the Shark that swept the puck out, and the camera clearly saw.
Face Offs
I felt the linesman held the puck too long before dropping it. Caused players from both teams to “false start”. I know Toews was booted 2x for his linemates jumping the gun too
Chicago Blackhawks: No Longer Rusted Steel on Slush!
Toews did not have a great game yesterday by his standards
even his assist was kind of a flub.
Just sayin’.
Please don’t take this the wrong way, or reiterate all the great stuff Cap does all the time. I know.

NBC games
in previous rounds, NBC had all day (weekend) games. I think it is safe to assume that NBC weekday games will be during the evening, but the real question is……would NBC put a possible Stanley Cup clinching game on during the day? It just seems weird to think a championship in a major North American Sport could be won during daylight hours. Can anyone think of a Stanley Cup that has been handed out during the day? (or any championship for that matter NBA, MLB, NFL).
I mean, how am I supposed to riot during the day? Setting things a blaze just doesn’t have the same novelty during the day.

says that all the games will start at 7, so all the fires you set while looting should be visible in the night sky.

Absolutely no contest who the MVP is.

Keith?
I missed most of games 3 and 4* but even before the teeth thing, shouldn’t Keith be on the shortlist for series MVP? He was on fire in 1 and 2! Maybe the stats weren’t great, but he was poking away pucks and always in the right place, hauling ass all over the ice.
*Ironically I was in Canada, and drunk, but I was camping and missed the game. I was wearing The Sweater Friday night and had about 50 drunk canadians come up to me and talk about the hawks with great awe and respect, so I think we have something going here.
"...the teeth thing..."
I had to laugh out loud at how you boiled down to three words taking a puck to the mouth, losing 7 teeth, unimagineable pain, and hours of future dental surgery.
I think the whole defense played their brains (and teeth) out, so picking an individual D member would be hard

Bolland vs top line
Just decided to glance at some data… interestingly, after McLellan’s changes in Games 3 and 4, it looks like Bolland’s line was matched up against Thornton, Couture, and Setoguchi. The 2nd line ended up drawing Marleau, Heatley, and Malhotra, for the most part.
Not sure what this means, plus my mind is too foggy to pull anything off the top of my head right now.

Did you see the new scoring chances post at Copper ‘n Blue? There was a head-to-head scoring chances breakdown in the spirit of my mutual Corsi chart (apparently my contribution was reminding him that diagonal cells exist in Excel… um, ok). Interesting how our 3rd line’s shots were all low quality (including Ladd’s goal), apparently.
If that’s true, it means that even head-to-head Corsi isn’t nearly good enough. Hmmmmmm…
nopes, not yet
I need to remind myself to add them to my Google Reader.
I feel like both Mutual CORSI and— mutual scoring chances, if that’s what Derek is using?— by themselves are both interesting and useful, but I don’t know if there’s a way to automatically generate a meaningful graph incorporating both since scoring chances are subjective evaluations by individuals.

There are too many valuable players to pick just one........
Slice up the award and give a piece to every player. One player does not make an entire team. Just look at LeBron and the Cavaliers. LBJ won the MVP but what did that get him? Elimination by Boston.

MVP awards
are almost by design a way to piss people off by slighting deserving, hard-working players.
You’re right that you could point to at least five Hawks without whom this series goes 6 or 7. But they do have the award, which means you do have to pick one.
With all due respect to the others, it’s just gotta be Niemi for this series.
teaching respect for the Indian, one Red Wing fan at a time.
I'd rather see Montreal
Now that Carter is back, Philly has solid scoring depth up front. Plus, I think it is possible that Pronger could give the Toews-Kane-Buff line fits.
I just don’t think Philly is a 7 seed, they don’t have 7 seed players and they certainly aren’t playing like a 7 seed.
I’m sure all of us think the Hawks can and should beat either team, but sign me up for Montreal (then again, I’m sure washington and pitt said the same thing at some point)

Montreal
scares me because it is clear that Halak can be good enough to win an entire series. Leighton, despite his gaudy stats, just doesn’t scare me as much.

The ‘Hawks playing the Sharks all season and in the playoffs has been akin to having one’s way with somebody who’s passed out. Yawn and somewhat criminal. I know.

That's an interesting thought but I think I'm of the opposite mindset
Montreal has had the most success counterpunching a highly potent offensive team. The most dangerous offense the Flyers have faced is probably the Devils, and they’re still a defense first team. The Flyers play defense well, no doubt, but I think the matchup with the Flyers is more favorable for the Hawks, even if the Flyers probably possess more skill and talent.
"...even if the Flyers probably possess more skill and talent."
Than the Canadiens I assume you mean.
Philadelphia, on paper, should be much, much better than the Predators. They’ve got scoring all over the place and the deep defense to boot. The great equalizer, though, is Pekka Rinne. Obviously Leighton isn’t the Big Finn.
Just seems like, to me, that the Flyers would turn it into a war of attrition AND be able to score on you. If the Habs aren’t scoring, they’re basically done.

I'm not convinced by their defense
past Pronger (who is a slow-ass muhfucker these days) and Coburn. Timmonen is great offensively, but can be handled in his own zone as well. They haven’t faced a team with the offensive talent and depth of the Hawks (Devils, Bruins, and undersized Habs), so there’s where I would like our chances against the Flyers.
Aside from that, I do agree that on paper they are very strong, especially on the attacking end, where they might even be better than the Sharks, at least from a performance pov. We didn’t see a lot from San Jose’s second-fourth lines, but the Flyers have gotten contributions from those guys, which scares me.
I can agree with the first assessment, the point is in this instance that the Flyers would scare me a helluva lot more than the Habs.
Pretty much. Top line has Richards/Gagne, 2nd line Briere/Hartnell, and they’ve got Giroux on the third line now.

but I’m starting to get a 1985 Bears feeling here.
Some douchebag was walking around the UC with a broom yesterday- a sure jinx if I ever saw one. And yet the Hawks won.
I’ll keep biting my tongue another week or so, but I’m not happy about it.
Gentlemen! I have invented...this thing!
Being a Chicago fan, I'm afraid of EVERYone,
That is, I always expect a massive letdown, because, well, that’s what happens to us. (Maybe it’s more being a Chicago CUBS fan that has produced the anxiety.) When the Bulls went 72-10, I was sure they’d blow it in the playoffs.
From an analyst’s standpoint, I think we’ve got way too many offensive weapons to be “shut down” by Montreal’s defense or goaltending. And our defensive pressure will result in something like their 2nd period against Philly in the last game. Philly is much more of a challenge for the Hawks, though I don’t think they have nearly the scoring depth we do. Pronger will be a pain, the games will be much more physical, and the penalty box will be the deciding factor in a couple of the games. That said, the Hawks penalty killing has been pretty amazing.

California whine
I’ve read on various Shark sites that a considerable number of fans think that Heatley’s slash on Kane in the 3rd was a cheap penalty as if Kane intentionally dropped his stick or he has weak hands. I’m fairly certain Kane would not intentionally risk a turnover to Heatley behind the net.
It wasn't a slash though.
I think he knocked the stick out of Kanes hand but it was a ticky tack call that I thought was bogus. If anything it should have been a hooking call though I don’t remember what the call was. If it was slashing it was a bad call.
Disagree
Slashing is slashing. If you swing your stick at a player and either break their stick or knock it out of their hands, it’s a slash and deserves to be called.
Okay
I stand corrected but it still looked like he stuck his stick there in a hooking motion rather than a slash. Either way, they scored and that’s all that matters.
It's the new NHL
some of these rules have pussified the game so that the playmakers can do more to make plays.
by MadisonMadHatter on May 24, 2010 9:42 PM CDT up reply actions
given a number of equally "new NHL marginal" calls on the Hawks, it seemed appropriate
although I agree that the NHL has tightened down on some things a bit too much
Confusion will be my epitaph.
Here's why that penalty was called:
Heatley swings his stick high in the air, brings it down quickly, there is a LOUD crack, and the stick flies out of Kane’s hand. When I saw it in actual time I said, “Ouch!” out loud. The ref called it immediately.
Watching the replay, Heatley is simply bringing his stick over Kane in an attempt to change his stick position and brings it down quickly. Kane, who’s still guarding the puck on his opposite hand doesn’t expect the impact and his stick goes flying. He didn’t drop it on purpose and I don’t think it was much of a slash, but in the moment it happened, it certainly looked like a wicked slash on Kane’s hand/stick.
I fart in your general direction. Your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries.

Pronger
The thing I look most forward to in this Stanley Cup is starting to intensely hate Chris Pronger again. The hatred has always been there but we haven’t had too many close encounters with that POS as of late.
This bastard will go down as one of the great Hawks enemies in all of history and certainly in my lifetime.
