Great series so far, this matchup is fantastic. Every game really close, lots of physical play and animosity building up, both sides paying the price. This is better than I thought it'd be, I hope it keeps up the next 2-3 games.

Great game to watch. Lots of excitement though Boston tries to make things boring. I can't help but cheer for Chicago.

CHI let BOS off the hook in the first period of Game 2. Should be up 3-1 now.

Incredible game last night. Who would have thought a 6-5 OT game was in store.
A lot of mistakes made by both teams, several Hawks broke their slumps.
When you look at the players on Boston who were -2 or more it is quite a list.
Chara -3
Seidenberg -2
Bergeron -2
Marchand -3
Seguin -3
Horton continues his amazing +23 run being somehow +1 last night.
Boston did score 2 on the PP so that does balance things out somewhat but there is no doubt the series fully on now.
It was amazing how these 2 teams traded big goal for big goal.
Game 5 as the late great Ed Whalen would say is going to be a ring a ding dong dandy!

News from the 'Hawks practice on Friday...Hossa did NOT participate...they have been using Mayers as a placeholder...I don't expect any real news on Hossa until Q has to submit his active roster on Saturday.

Oil...Q is always, let us say, less than candid, about injuries...I wouldn't take Q's word as a slam dunk that Hossa will play on Saturday.

The Stanley Cup Final hit a series-high in viewership on Wednesday night.
Game 4 of the Blackhawks/Bruins NHL Stanley Cup Final drew a 3.8 final rating and 6.5 million viewers on NBC Wednesday night, up 217% in ratings and 212% in viewership from Devils/Kings Game 4 on NBC Sports Network last year (1.2, 2.1M), and up 138% in both measures from Canucks/Bruins Game 4 on Versus in 2011 (1.6, 2.7M).
Wednesday’s game ranks as the most-viewed Game 4 of the Stanley Cup Final since at least 1987, and the most-viewed non-clinching game of any kind since at least 2001 (complete viewership prior to 2002 was not available).
The 3.8 rating for Game 4 is also the second-best for a non-clinching game since Stars/Devils Game 5 in 2000 (4.2), trailing only last week’s Game 1 (3.9).
Through four games, the Blackhawks/Bruins series has averaged a 3.1 U.S. rating and 5.4 million viewers on NBC and NBC Sports Network — up 107% in ratings and 118% in viewership from Kings/Devils through the same point last year (1.5, 2.5M), and up 55% and 57%, respectively, from Bruins/Canucks in 2011 (2.0, 3.4M).
The series ranks as the most-viewed Stanley Cup Final through four games since at least 1987.

Is Jagr dying his beard? No way he can get that silver patch naturally.

True but Bos let Chi off the hook in the third period of game 1, should be up 3-1 now and that would be true too.

The difference being that Boston didn't have a 2-0 goal called back.

Questionable call for sure but there was also the argument that Hossa pushed Rask's pad in with his stick anyways. My point beingother than game 3 either team could have won any of the games, so 2-2 is probably what it should be at.

There's an example of a time I'd like to just see the dive called.
