There’s no other way this series could end, could it? You really thought the Blackhawks wouldn’t at least storm back? After going down 3-1 in their first round series against the Blues, the Hawks have stormed back to force a Game 7 following a dominant in Game 6 at the United Center. The fifth Game 7 of the Toews-Kane era now stares the Hawks in the face in order to continue their quest for a repeat. This episode sees the guys joined by Steve McNeil from FanSided for the Blues’ perspective as the trio gets to the bottom of this bonkers series. How did we get here and what can we expect in Game 7? Will all of the playoff superstitions come through?
