Were better playing from behind.

Wish we played Anaheim. Oh well. We lost game 1 last round too.

Kane and Toews were invisible the entire game.

Calgary, Vancouver and Anaheim all play similar, more physical games. That was why I wanted the Ducks so bad. Detroit is a finesse, high-octane offensive team with a great defense to back them up. It boggles my mind that some people were so hellbent on this rivalry that they failed to see the better matchup.

Gotta change up a lot for Game 2. They're still playing like they're playing a physical team. They're not.

That's because they were on the bench for most of the game. Like to hear Quenneville's reasoning why they were barely on the ice

Just saw the stat sheet, both Toews and Kane were a -3, the only Hawks that low.

So I guess there's your reason why they sat so much. But when you need goals, like being down 4-2 with 10 minutes left, you have to play them.

Hawks do a great job at killing a powerplay early. Now on the PP...

Now a 5 on 3.

And another PP on the Red Wings.

Yeah this is deja vu so far. Please let's be the team that comes out on the winning end this time.

So far it seems like no adjustments have been made from Game 1 to Game 2. Start out fast then let Detroit dictate the game the rest of the way.

Just do something, anything, to change the way this is going.

Except our 2nd goal happened later in the period than Sunday. I doubt we win this one on the road. Can't let an experienced team like Detroit stay with you on the road late in a playoff game.

Damn we're getting chances

Overtime. This could be a long one.

Let's steal this one and go back to the UC 1-1!!!!!!!!!

Well we have two tough games back home. We lost the first two road games in Calgary, but we were already up 2-0 then.

3 on 1. This series is over.
