Hawks were middle of the road on the PP in the regular season. Bruins had the 4th best pk.

Pretty bad alignment from the Hawks. Players in wrong position...shot wise and the 2 D in way too close to the top of the circles. They helped the Bruins kill that penalty by eliminating time and space they could easily have acquired thru proper spacing and better positioning.

Forwards on the point always want to cheat just a little bit lower.

"If in the course of a substitution either the player(s) entering the play or the player(s) retiring is struck by the puck accidentally, the play will not be stopped and no penalty will be called."

This is right from the NHL.com official rules , it was a BS call but no harm done great kill by the Bruins.

Entertaining overall game, I'm not sure who I want to win yet I don't mind either team . I hope it goes at least 6 games, I hate short series in the final.

It was two weak calls in a row. The crosscheck that preceded the too many men call was an ugly dive from Handzus.

Look for the Bruins to get the benefit of the doubt now after killing off two crappy PKs and bailing out the officials.

Rask is such a smart goalie. Will be a superstar, for sure.

I stand corrected

1 hook too many for the Hawks. Trip in this case.

[Canuck-Hater]

Nice dive Chara.

[Flash Walken]

Shaw is cruisin' for a bruisin'.

Better be careful, Bruin's are looking to take his head off.

[CaptainYooh]

Anyone else thinks that Chicago has a good chance of being swept?

[Stay Golden]

what a shot. Skill! 3-1

When did Chara become a diver?

[Flash Walken]

Wicked 8 foot pass by Seguin.

This Bruins team is the one the Flames should've been during all those first round exit years.

I think you'd have to be drunk to call that a dive.

[Canuck-Hater]

Too much Bruin love for my liking.
