I can't take much more of this.

I really dislike the Anaheim Ducks. But I flat out hate the Blackhawks. And Kane is STILL the biggest douchebag in the NHL.
Hopefully the Lightning win it all and Brenden Morrow gets his name on the cup. He surely deserves it.

I want to see a Chicago/New York series. But it's not likely, prolly be Anaheim and Tampa Bay.

My favorite image every time they're in an elimination game, despite my hatred for the Hawks

Hawks win, 5-2! On to game 7.

Definitely not a fan of either team, but both teams are very good and it has been a highly entertaining series to watch.

Whoever wins Game 7 will win the Cup. I'll be surprised if the Final lasts more than five games.

The last two games have been one for the books! Continual action from the initial dropping of the puck.

Agree that whoever wins this series takes the Cup. Neither NY or Tampa Bay can skate with these two teams.

Hawks on to the Stanly Cup FINALS! Toews as a man possessed last night! How can anyone beat this team the way it's playing now?

My prediction: Hawks win the Cup, 4 game to 2. Believe it!

The year of the Shitheel continues. OSU, New England, Duke. Now we get LeBron and the Hawks, with their 3rd Cup since their expansion year of 2008.

Tampa's pretty good. I don't know which series you've been watching. But I have a feeling that the Hawks are going to do what the Rangers either couldn't or wouldn't do: Get in Bishop's face. Bishop's greatest attribute is his size. He's not very agile. The few times the Ducks breathed on him he'd fall over like a ton of bricks. He also creates HUGE five holes going horizontally because of his size. You HAVE to be in his face or else he's going to just lay back and have his way.

Hawks in 7.

Throw the regular season out the window, the Blackhawks are in playoff mode and there's not a team in the NHL who can turn it on like they can. Toews has become Chicago's version of Superman.

I'd be VERY surprised if it goes more than 6 games.

Tampa Bay can definitely skate with the Blackhawks. Actually I see the Hawks having a touch time keeping up with the Lightening. As always though, it will likely come down to goaltending. Should be a good series. I'll go with Tampa Bay just because I much prefer they win.

If the blackhawks can pummel bishop and keep going to his glove, this won't be a long series. I've seen him drop more pucks than any other goalie in a long time.

Yserman and Verbeek have proven that they have an eye for real talent. We all know how good Stamkos is, but before this series, how many of you recognized just how good some of these other forwards are: Tyler Johnson, Nikita Kucherov, Ondrej Palat, Cedric Paquette, Alex Killorn and Ryan Callahan? And on defense, who saw these two as major studs - Victor Hedman and Anton Stralman?
The way this team was built with talented but somehow underestimated players that were missed by other teams reminds me of the Wings teams from 2000 to 2010 or so. The team isn't populated with All Stars, but as a unit, it's pretty stout. I really like the team. Especially compared to the hated Blackhawks. Go Lightning!!

Here come the Hawks. The Mighty Blackhawks!

As I predicted!

Barely

I can't believe tampa got them that far with a goalie with a torn groin, their top performing forward with a broken wrist, and stamkos being invisible.
