my NHL experience is being ruined
If the Blackhawks win the series will they have been the best team in the NHL this season?
They get a flukey victory in Game 1, dominate 1 period in the next two games. Get lucky in Game 4 and dominate Game 5.
It is a difficult one for me (although this is probably me being bias)
but tbh neither side has really played well enough over the series to say they 'deserve' to win the Stanley Cup
That's not bias, that's being naive, no offense.
This is probably the most exciting series in a while, especially for a Stanley Cup Finals.. it's top quality. Excitement and stress throughout the entire game, each game.
And yes, Blackhawks were the best team in the NHL over the regular season, and have obviously done well in the playoffs, including overcoming a 3-1 deficit to their biggest rivals, the Red Wings.
Every hockey fan watching this series believes each team deserved to win each game so far.. it's been that intense and back and forth. Hell, you don't even need to be educated and a real hockey fan to know this.
I hate the way we are playing Boston once they get in our zone.. they completely dominate us and we look like lost dogs on skates, unable to clear the puck and be composed. Our only way of winning is countering and playing fast, which we do well and we usually get a shot on goal then hopefully a rebound before Bruins start doing work again.
Crawford is complete shit, and we all fear every time a puck is coming his way.. it's pathetic.
Bruins aren't done.. they have great home ice and can easily win tonight and go into Chicago and dominate again like they do often and win it here.
There is seriously no reason to be down if you are a Bruins fan and are aware of the skill and strength you have on the roster, especially against the 'hawks.
This is honestly the only time I've ever wanted a team to win the trophy on the road.. screw winning it at home with the fans.. just get it out of the way and win this shit. Stressssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssful.
I don't think we've played well at all. Our offense has been good enough, but the defense and indecisiveness and fear of hitting the Bruins when we should be hitting them, as well as being able to clear our zone when the Bruins are in, controlling everything. Bruins are nasty shooters man.. I fear for my life every time they wind up for a go at Crawford.
Let's go Chicago, you sons of bitches.
