Corey got some dumb lucky bounces in his favor when he was all but beaten a few occasions.
Chicago taking game one says very little about the outcome of this series. They need to hold serve. If Boston can manage the split going into game 3, then Chicago's ####ed up big time. I can see Boston bringing a much more complete game on Sat. All in all I'm still quite confident they're taking it. They need to adjust to their new foes, after all, as does Chicago.

Pretty much the same thing can be said about Chicago and them winning it earlier if they had more finish and lucky bounces to help Rask out.
If Boston would have won it would have said little about the outcome of the series as well.
I understand that people want to try and pump up their team but to say that was anything other than a 50/50 game and that Boston comes out looking better or look like they will take is ridiculous in my mind.
