OT.
I'm not terribly impressed by Hawks' special teams. Or 5-on-5 tonight for that matter. But they almost won this in regulation anyway.

Take the point, and win tomorrow.

Toronto is a legit cup contender. Score didn't show it, but Leafs dominated the game most of the night. Hawks had early bounces go in, but the Leafs were generating big scoring chances all night long.

Keith sucked. The Czech Lidstrom has been the best d-man so far.

This officiating makes this barely watcheable So true. You can't even brush a guy with your stick and it's a slash. The faceoff rule is annoying as well but maybe in the long term it will work.
Hawks stopped playing after 1st period and up 3-1 late should have taken 2 points.

Loafs speed and forecheck killed them late. Forsberg wasn't great on the goals but he saved better chances that probably should have been goals so it evened out I suppose.
Losing to the Loafs isn't as bad as they used to be because they're pretty good these days. 2009 Hawks comparisons aren't that far off, really.
Habs next. Jim should have had his half and half jersey dry cleaned and pressed by now in prep for tonight (I'm assuming it's the Campoli one again).

Keith sucked. The Czech Lidstrom has been the best d-man so far. It's gonna be a real problem if Stun and Q think that 2 and 7 can play 30+ a night in the playoffs like past seasons. I STILL haven't noticed Murphy much. That's good, right?

Really uneven game...Hawks get 2 despite Loafs looking 'better'...Faceoffs have been made, 'stoopid'...Jonny got kicked out every time? Q said Refs gave no reason when asked. Forsberg looked good, except for that Holland Tunnel sized 5-hole on the 1st goal...Keith, Forsling not good.
Special teams are not.

Throwing out a center when it is 3 on 3 circus carnival act OT so a dman can then take a faceoff to try to "emphasize" some bogus mandate is beyond ridiculous. Basically every faceoff tossing a center is not even remotely entertaining. Don't even get me started on you call a penalty every time someone's stick touch anything, but when D-Cat gets trucked without having touched the puck and the puck being no where near him at the point he gets hit right in front of a ref, and that ref doesn't call a penalty and has to be bailed out by his partner a zone away from the play.
First 2 games, the officiating wasn't as noticeably annoying at last night. Must be because the game was in the center of the hockey universe and maybe some "important" league ref folks were there to have that bad of a shit show.

If it wasn't already obvious by then, OT highlighted the Laffs speed as they skated circles around the Hawks 'old men' Kane, Toews & Keith. These Laffs do remind me of the 2009 Hawks coming up ice in waves late in the game.

Kane was bad. Maybe it was Schmaltz who carried him the first two games?

The Leafs could very easily end the cup drought this year.
