    He will definitely be in the top-3 soon and you could be right.

    I am not " feeling" it for the Hawks to win this series. I still think they'll fight back and make it go 6 or 7 games but the Bruins are locked in and loaded. Hawks need several adjustments. Crawford has been damn good though. Toews needs to fight through the slump and the defense he's getting. He's due for a big game. Hossa injury is concerning going forward, he needs to battle through it and get back on the ice.

    Very disappointed in tonight's game.

    I think the Hawks play their best game of the series Wednesday night and tie it 2-2. This puppy is going a full 7 with at least 1 more thrilling OT battle.

    I actually really do believe the Bruins have figured out the Hawks and that this will likely be wrapped up in 5 or 6.

    One thing's for sure, if the Hawks have any prayer of winning they need to get WAY more rubber and traffic on Rask. There's no way they're getting anything past him cleanly the way he's playing.

    A lot of this series has to do with momentum. Bruins carried it for the first half of game 1, then the Hawks took over until the first half of game 2 - and now The Bruins have carried it all the way to the end of game 3.

    I expect the Hawks to bounce back, I don't think this will end up like Pittsburgh, who never actually carried any momentum (perhaps arguably during game 4, but that was too little too late).

    It's a good matchup and the series can go either way, but I loved the way the Hawks responded at the end of game 3, showing the emotion. Hopefully that carries through to game 4

    The Bruins are playing in a similar fashion Dallas did in 1999, NJ did in 2000, Calgary did in 2004, and LA did last year - in the sense that they're putting defense first, and wearing down the opposition with gritty and meticulous hockey. It's definitely tough to beat, but it can be beaten (aka, I don't think it's that 'perfect'). Super defensive NJ with an elite goalie was beaten by an offensive powerhouse in 2001, and Calgary was beaten in 2004.

    Hell, even LA played a similar, gritty defensive style that Boston plays this year and the Hawks beat them, though the Bruins do it better than LA.

    I think it'll just come down to who wants it more because both teams are capable of beating the other here. The Hawks looked really hungry in the later half of game 1 and they need to play with the same kind of intensity from this point on.

    Lazy play by Seguin on the PP. If I were the coach he wouldn't see another second on the man-advantage. For a kid who is supposed to be a stud he's been a ghost in the playoffs - 48th in scoring this post season.

    Chicago has come out roaring - as they needed to. Just 1 goal, but come on- it's Rask. Love this series.

    Those who said that Bruins had this in the bag probably aren't so sure about it now.
