Freedom of '76: Broad Street Hockey, Flyers Goal Scored By
It's finally here, an opportunity that many of us doubted we'd ever see as recently as four years ago, but with a win tonight, the Chicago Blackhawks can win the Stanley Cup.
Yes, you read that correctly.
Both recent and distant histories make it abundantly clear that tonight will be no easy task. The Hawks have not won the Stanley Cup in 49 years. The last time they were this close, they took a 3 games to 2 lead into the opponent's building with an opportunity to clinch in Game 6 in 1971 against the Montreal Canadiens, and the Hawks painfully lost both that game and the resultant Game 7 to give the Habs the Cup. A similar fate befell Scum just last year, unable to close out Sid, Geno, and the Pens in the Igloo, and then fell in Game 7 back at The Joe. Coming into tonight's game, the Hawks have lost 10 straight games in Philadelphia, their last victory coming in November of 1996. They will be facing a Flyers team that is 9-1 at home this post season, with a starting goalie in Michael Leighton who has yet to lose on home ice this post season. Furthermore, these Flyers have already won four games in which they could have been eliminated - all of them coming in successive fashion in their historic comeback against the Boston Bruins in the Eastern Conference Semifinals, which contained a game 7 three goal comeback from the Flyers as the cherry on top.
But no one will remember any of those things should the Hawks emerge from the Wachovia Center with Win 16.
Prior to Game 5 Joel Quenneville jumbled his lines, seperating the line of Jonathan Toews, Patrick Kane, and Dustin Byfuglien, putting them now on three seperate lines in the hopes of getting at least one, maybe two of them away from being matched up against Chris Pronger, who to that point had rendered the trio for the most part ineffective. Quenneville succeeded not only in that goal, but in also making Pronger move far more in his defensive zone, something he had not had to do previously in punishing Buff around the net. The result was more than likely the worst game of the future Hall of Famer Pronger's career. Don't expect a repeat performance out of Philadelphia Dick Cheese tonight; he's far too big of a competitior and too great of a hockey player to give anything less than an exceptional performance tonight. Similarly, the Hawks will need to weather an early onslaught of the entire Flyer attack in the opening period, as they will be spurred on by an energetic and likely somewhat nervous (but no doubt smelly) crowd on hand. The line of Danny Briere, Scott Hartnell, and Ville Leino has run wild all series long, and they will need to be contained. Briere cannot be allowed to set up shop behind the net where he likes to operate, as well as sneak out from behind for back-door plays, Harntell needs to be kept at a distance from Antti Niemi, and Leino needs to be kept from doing whatever the fuck it is he's been doing that's suddenly turned him into Pat Fucking LaFontaine. Hawk forwards will also need to front the Flyers point men better, as far too many shots were fired from the blue line and found their way to Flyer tape in Games 3 and 4.
For our Men of Four Feathers, while a repeat performance of Sunday is simple enough to ask for, doing so is the trick, isn't it? The Hawks got scoring from up and down the lineup, and they did so by pushing the pace, initiating contact with Flyers defensemen (specifically Pronger), and clean, controlled breakouts, and all of those things will need to be in place for a win this evening. On top of that, Niemi will need to be markedly better than he was on Sunday, as hell is assuredly coming to breakfast in the first 10 to 12 minutes of the first period. Scoring first is of paramount importance tonight to both take the crowd out of the game and to allow doubt to creep back into the minds of the Flyers, to however miniscule degree given their resilience to this point in the playoffs. Not far behind will be the special teams and face off battles, both of which the Hawks will need to improve upon from their last appearance at the Wachovia Center. There's not much left to say past that.
One win remaining. Let's go Hawks.

During intermission Ronnie stood in the aisle around center ice of the 100 level and he held up an Obama sign and just yelled “Obama woo!” over and over for about 15 minutes.

I've posted this elsewhere already
Flyers SCF PP is 5/19 = 26.3%
Blackhawks SCF PP is 3/13 = 23.1%
Even though the Flyers have now averaged "only" 1+ more PP/gm than the ’Hawks, the PP% numbers are fairly close now. Funny how things "even out", eh?
Before the ‘Hawks line changes prior to the start of period 3 in game 4, the Flyers PP was 5/14 = 35.7%, the ’Hawks PP was 0/7 = 0%.
Since the ’Hawks line changes, the ’Hawks PP is 3/6 = 50%, the Flyers PP is 0/5 = 0%……just sayin’…..things have a habit of evening out in the NHL, especially when it appears that at one time or another a team’s fan base feels their team is being screwed.
Just win the next game...!
good call.
And despite the Hawk’s SH scoring I’d still like to see the game not be lopsided in penalties. Playing 8 minutes of 5 on 4 hockey doesn’t sit to well with me, especially with a team that has their backs against the wall.
Good to see shit is evening out but I’d rather not flirt with disaster.

Correction
The game 7 loss at home occurred in the 1971 finals. The Hawks lost the ’73 finals in six games.
On December 18, 1993
Steve Smith was about to go off for high-sticking. Tommy Soderstrom went to the bench on a delayed penalty and the Flyers accidentaly sent a drop pass all the way down the ice into their own net. It was the game-tying goal.
That is my fondest memory of the Blackhawks playing in Philadelphia.
Please eclipse that tonight.

I’m sorry, but have you seen her replacement? I’m a chick, and even I think Rosie Huntington-Whitely is hot. She is a Victoria’s Secret model after all. I also already knew who she was because I’m big into fashion and she’s a runway model
it's like the two darrens thing on bewitched
and I don’t really care about if the new girl is hot, mostly I’m stuck on “Michael Bay is a bag of dicks, and shouldn’t be surprised to hear that his movies aren’t quality films.”

Time for some thrillin' heroics!
To be honest
she looks a lot like Mirana Kerr with a slightly wonky face (not that I could bag a girl like her anyway, mind you).
I'm Scottish, yeah
It’s not popular here at all, really; if you ever tell people you’re a fan, they’ll just kind of look at you funny or say “…oh, right” and find something else to talk about. The few people I’ve seen wearing jerseys all seem to be European.
We do/did have a Scottish (or British, can’t remember) ice hockey league, though. Don’t think it is/was very successful.
She looks good there
But I still stick by my opinion; there’s something not quite right in this picture, but I can’t tell what:
Nah, it was just a pic of her face.
If you do a Google image search for her name, you’ll find plenty of stuff. I’m just of the opinion there’s something slightly off about her face. Oh well.
I'll investigate some more
But do you care to explain what you mean by “off” or “wonky” about her? Do you mean something’s out of proportion, or that she had some work done? Something like that?
‽ ⅋ ‽
I don't really know
I seem to have very high standards for what I define as “hot” or “pretty” but in some pics (especially this one) she seems to be getting a little bit close to Jocelyn Wildenstein territory.
I think it’s her nose &/or jawline. Not sure.
this is
an excellent choice for a “teaser” image. This caused me to do some investigation….and I must say I agree with your assessment 100%.

I got home really drunk, couldn’t find my ID to swipe myself back in the building. So I’d use a hairpin to unscrew the screen in the first-floor living room and let myself in through the window. And then, still drunk, i’d try to screw the screen back on after propping the front door.

Thanks
Thanks Sam and everyone else, you put a ton of work into this site and the Indian. It is greatly appreciated.
I’ve been waiting for this night ever since January 12, 1986, my first game at Chicago Stadium. My father took me, we sat in the Mezzanine section. I remember the date because the Bears won the NFC Championship that afternoon, and it was flashed on the scoreboard, the crowd went wild.
While I don’t remember who the Hawks played, I will never forget the first time I saw the ice, the deep red brick, the banners, and heard the organ. I instantly fell in love with both the Hawks, and the sport.
I have been to so many games since that January night, and have so many memories. Too often though, like many of us here, those memories include the Hawks coming up short, never getting a chance to drink from Lord Stanley’s Cup.
Let tonight be the night. For all of us. New fans and old fans alike. Those of us who had to sit through Karpotsov, Daze’s bad back, an old Gilmour, an old Bondra, an older Coffey; for those of us who saw Roenick, Larmer, Belfour, and countless others leave. For the draft pics who went bust. For those of us who grew up listening to Pat and Dale on the radio, without the benefit of games shown on t.v. And for those of us who are growing up, watching Kane, Toews, and Keith, and the magic and splendor that is ice hockey.
For me, I’ll be at home with my dad watching, praying, and hoping. And not far from my mind will be that cold January night, so many years ago.

g'luck, and remember to breathe
Think I’m over whatever distaste that I as a Red Wings fan had at the thought of the hawks winning the cup, I guess it’s ok for your guys to win one every 50 years or so.
Here’s the thing that made me realize that I don’t really care that much…saw a kid wearing a Blackhawks jersey at work (no dress code, other than “you must wear clothes”), and rather than reacting to the jersey itself, I instead went up to him and said, “I didn’t realize you guys were allowed to wear the jersey of the infidel.” It was a Chelios jersey he had on, and what with hearing about Cheli’s apostasy over the past decade, that was pretty much the last name I expected to see on a Blackhawks jersey.
Anyway, I even wished the kid good luck…and I suppose I’ll extend the same to you guys for tonight’s game.
Gotta say, though, it’s a hell of a lot easier for the heart if your team does close it out in game 6 on away ice, as the Wings did in 2008, but failed to do last year. I’m sure you guys recall what happened at the Joe, and you better believe that I sure as hell do….and I wouldn’t wish that fate, even on you folks.
Tonight’s the night for the Blackhawks to get it done, else it’s going to be a loooong two days before game 7.

If it's the one I heard about
the organizers did everything they could to let people know that they were NOT to interfere with the buses or otherwise harrass the Blackhawks, but rather “escort” them to the game.
Now, most of us aren’t so naive as to think that everyone would actually hold to that (and it seems that it won’t happen anyway), so I agree that the idea is flawed at best. But at it’s heart, it isn’t SUPPOSED to be violent, which to me at least counts for something.

My Dad used to take me to Hawks games when he travelled to Chicago
And would always take me up to DC from Richmond when the Hawks were in town. Recently, I’ve been taking him to the Hawks games in DC and Raleigh, and that’s been really special over the last couple of years.
kinda sucks
that the Hawks are only here every other year. They were the Caps home opener in 08-09 season and I had to drop $125 per for 2 club level seats that were the only ones available to the public.

this season. Once in Boston and for the January fun and games in San Jose. Rows 4 & 8 respectively and worth the money to see them win both.

a little bit after 1971, so this is the first time in my life the Hawks had a chance to do that certain something special. I don’t know how tonight will turn out, or anything after that, but I’ve been committed to enjoying this afternoon and smiling all day long for just how special this time is. It will be different once the puck drops, but for the next few hours it’s nothing but bliss. But then at about 20 after 7 the bar for making me happy gets set a little bit higher.

I have intimate experience with this sort of pressure…..
…you know where we are so emotionally invested in the outcome while at the same time being utterly powerless to that same end
Although the stakes were exponentially more personal to me then, those experiences sort of prepared me for this moment, and my only advice (not that any of you really need it) is to say….embrace it. For all the anxiety, nervousness and exhilaration that is now and hopefully may come. These moments in life simply cannot be replicated. One has to LIVE them. Enjoy fellow Blackhawk faithful. LET’S GO HAWKS!!!!
The less a man makes declarative statements, the less apt he is to look foolish in retrospect.
Well everyone
Here’s to a good game with no injuries tonight. Even though we want different outcomes, I think we can agree that it’s a hell of a lot more fun knowing that the ’Nucks and Wings (as well as the Pens and Rangers for us) are sitting watching the two of our teams playing for the championship.

You have me literally laughing out loud in my office.
People think I’ve going nuts too. My family is rooting for a Hawks win as much for my sanity as for any other reason.
here is the narrative of chico's day
We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a saltshaker half-full of cocaine, and a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers… Also, a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether, and two dozen amyls. Not that we needed all that for the trip, but once you get into locked a serious drug collection, the tendency is to push it as far as you can. The only thing that really worried me was the ether. There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge, and I knew we’d get into that rotten stuff pretty soon.

I had to sit through their bullshit 2 years ago when the Phillies won the world series (thinking that the cubs had it made like an idiot). I have been relatively quiet but I can not wait to shove it in their faces if we pull this thing off.

Where they really made it was when they released it on DVD. When they saw how many DVD’s sold is when they decided to make Serenity. Of course we seem to be really geeky here too.

I still have one of those little red wagons. True story. And I’m way too nervous about the outcome of this game. The Flyers just can’t win as Stanley Cup. They can’t.
I would, but my dad uses it for yard work, to like pick up sticks and prop up the useless crap we have stored in the garage, so he’d be pissed.
I have two

The Hawks team that we have come to love has only failed to get the job done once in a closeout game in the last two years, and that game was not on the road. No way, no way on this planet do they not bring their A game tonight. Sweet as the prospect of that big shiny thing taking lap after lap around the UC ice may be, we want this over tonight. I’ll settle for the sight of Toews carrying it off the plane, the captain leading his troops back home after one last victorious road trip. Let’s go Hawks!

This post made me a think of a game 4 1/2 years ago against the Rangers.
Sharpie’s first game with the Hawks. I heckled Jagr, and gave Mark Bell a “Lets go Beller!” He looked at me like “Wow someone in the seats is yelling for the Hawks”. It really is surprising to think back and realise how far this organization has come in such a short amount of time. Let’s win tonight. Let’s Go Hawk’s!

Shame on you. This could be the greatest night of our lives, but you’re going to let it be the worst. And I guarantee a week won’t go by in your life you won’t regret walking out, letting them get the best of you. Well, I’m not going home. We’ve come too far! And I’m going to stay right here and fight for this lost cause. A day may come when the courage of men fails… but it is not THIS day. The line must be drawn HERE. This far, no further! I’m not saying it’s going to be easy. You’re going to work harder than you ever worked before. But that’s fine, we’ll just get tougher with it! If a person grits his teeth and shows real determination, failure is not an option. That’s how winning is done! Believe me when I say we can break this army here, and win just one for the Gipper. But I say to you what every warrior has known since the beginning of time: you’ve got to get mad. I mean plum mad dog mean. If you would be free men, then you must fight to fulfill that promise! Let us cut out their living guts one inch at a time, and they will know what we can do! Let no man forget how menacing we are. We are lions! You’re like a big bear, man! This is YOUR time! Seize the day, never surrender, victory or death… that’s the Chicago Way! Who’s with me? Clap! Clap! Don’t let Tink die! Clap! Alright! Let’s fly!

Like New Jersey Devils style, circa Game 6 in the ’00 Stanley Cup Final when Patrik Elias threw a no-look behind-the-back pass from the corner to Jason Arnott who was open in the slot to score the game-winning goal in double overtime? That was awesome. I still get goosebumps just thinking about it. But it could be the cold.

Pat Foley makes informed prediction
that will make many of us happy. He predicts that Q will not get matchup happy tonight, because of the balance on the lines now. He says that he was talking to Scotty Bowman after game 4 and Bowman was not a fan of Q’s propensity for quick line changes to get his matchup and Scotty felt that it prevented the Hawks from being able to get up on the forecheck. Based on the fact that Scotty and Q sat next to each other on the plane ride home Foley thinks that Q just rides his lines tonight.
I know that makes a lot of commenters here happy.

I don’t actually mind that you have a stupid goal celebration song, and it’s not like I’m one of the Canucks who in that video when they heard the song were obviously associating it with painful memories. In Game 5 they might as well have had it on a continuous loop with all the goals and it was the goals that made me depressed, not the song.
It’s that I really really hate the song as a song. It makes me feel that humans are stupid and I’m one of them.

Well, we all know what’s at stake here don’t we? The one trophy that has captured our minds, hearts, and has had us dream about it since as far as we can remember.
I’ve always wanted to know what it felt like. Whether it be in the snow in -30 degree celesius temperatures here in Ottawa emulating every Jeremy Roenick goal or Ed Belfour save as a kid the ‘Hawks always won the Stanley Cup, but never in reality. I guess that’s why tonight maybe means so much that if it should happen tonight those dreams that I had as a kid would finally come to true. In fact, it would no longer be a dream, it would be reality. I still find it hard to grasp this thought but can’t help thinking about it either as no matter who you are, or how old you are, this is the night you’ve been waiting for. Nothing is impossible.

but was never like this during any of their runs in the 2000’s. Only thing close I’ve experienced to this was in 2003 ALCS game 7 against the Yanks and same in 2004. But I’ve never lost sleep like I have the last 2 months. I was trying to explain how I felt to coworkers but I could never explain it properly.

yelling at my nephew to tell me when the 5 minute major was over. I was too nervous to watch it. I came back just in time to see Hossa’s goal.
