Blackhawks Vs. Kings 6/1/2014 West Finals Game 7

THESE ARE SPUR OF THE MOMENT THOUGHTS AS THE GAME GOES ALONG

(I picked up at the end of the 1st period)

End of 1st: It's seeming more like a first round game, not a game seven do or die game.

17:30 in 2nd: Much more emphatic period so far. I'm seeing the roughness I normally see in the playoffs.

17:14 in 2nd: Yeah uh offside has no place in hockey

16:05 left in 2nd: Not only do I miss the Atlanta Thrashers, but I miss the Marian Hossa/Ilya Kovalchuck (ok and Slava Kozlov) days.

14:17 left in 2nd: FINALLY someone fell down like a hockey player!!

13:11 left in 2nd: So if Bill Murray were to walk in with full pads, stick and everything, & a Blackhawks jersey, they'd let him play. Right?

12:28 left in 2nd (1:29 left on Blackhawks' power play): I don't see a goal happening here. The Kings defense has been great this period. A simple slap shot won't get past Jonathan Quick.

10:23 left in 2nd: Now that the Blackhawks have gotten better control of the game, It's starting to feel more like a playoff pace.

9:51 left in 2nd: Can we just have sumo wrestlers be the goalies? I mean, they're about as big as the goalies when they have their pads on.

9:29 left in 2nd: ANOTHER bouncing/random misdirection goal (Toffoli). Can we get one pure shot? Kings tie it up at 3.

 8:10 left in 2nd: Ok good, we've had a couple actual shots; alas like most, they just get deflected to the side. Ooh ooh, another power play for Chicago!

7:35.5 left in 2nd: I think I'm rooting for the Blackhawks (still misty about those Hossa Thrasher days). I'm still a little angry at LA for their cup win over New Jersey.

6:43 left in 2nd: Whoops, Drew Doughty might not want to do that again.

6:12 left in 2nd: JUST SHOOT CHICAGO!! YOU'VE GOT A 5 ON 3!!!

5:22 left in 2nd: Power plays in the NHL playoffs should only be one minute. Wouldn't that increase the shooting percentage per minute? Oh and that was a sad penalty Saad. 4 on 4.

2:31 left in 2nd: Don't some hockey players look like worn out touring musicians?

2:02 left in 2nd: Broken stick on a shot = broken bat

1:35 left in 2nd: Patrick Sharp (pure shot too)!!!!!  4-3 Chicago

END OF 2ND PERIOD

19:09 left in 3rd: I've always felt like it's weird that California is actually pretty good at hockey. I'd think a similar scenario that's happening in Phoenix would also happen in some fashion in Los Angeles.

15:31 left in 3rd: And if we did have sumo wrestlers be goalies, we should expand the goal.

15:23 left in 3rd: Patrick Kane scored the game winner in game 6. I'd be looking on him if LA scores again.

14:12 left in 3rd: Favorite player name b/w the teams: Duncan Keith. Least favorite: Drew Doughty.

13:46 left in 3rd: Anze Kopitar gets the honorable mention.

11:41 left in 3rd: This game is about to become awesome.

10:07 left in 3rd: I don't even know half the players' names in this game, but who cares. You can't beat playoff hockey...that is unless Wayne Coyne were to walk into my house.

7:17 left in 3rd: OH DANG! Fantastic reflexes by Gaborik! 4-4 tie! I've got no idea whose gonna win this game.

4:56 left in 3rd: This is becoming a complete playoff game: diving, cross-checking, funky goals, all around intense play, and...oh crap, I forgot there hasn't been a fight! #bringmeahockeyfight

3:51 left in 3rd: Marian Hossa's beard looks like spray cheese.

3:32 left in 3rd: Gaborik has 12 playoff goals this postseason. He had 11 in the regular season. Via ESPN Stats & Info tweet

2:19 left in 3rd: No one can beat Stoll on the faceoff. Huge advantage for LA if this goes into OT.

1:17 left in 3rd: Chicago just had 3 great chances. Don't stop shooting at this point in the game.

0:37 left in 3rd: Dustin Brown looked like Alex Ovechkin with those slimy moves!

0:5.3 left in 3rd: Quick just saved LA's season.  #clutch

END OF 3RD PERIOD - OVERTIME IS COMING!!

Patrick Kane has 4 overtime playoff goals. I like Chicago's chances, especially at home.

19:09 left in OT: I know they just zambonied the ice and everything, but I think this game is destined to finish on an awkward hop into goal.

17:29 left in OT: Saad really did hit the boards hard on that breakaway.

15:53 left in OT: At this point in the game, it feels like skating is becoming just as important at shooting.

15:32 left in OT: Or just dumb luck.

15:05 left in OT: Another rule change that should happen for the playoffs: no icing.

14:1oh who cares how much time is left, KINGS WIN KINGS WIN KINGS WIN KINGS WIN OFF OF A RANDOM BOUNCE!!!

Rangers Vs. Kings in the Stanley Cup Finals. Kick 'em in the butt big blue, HEY!
