Another 2-1 Blackhawks Win!

The Chicago Blackhawks snuck out another win in Game 5 from the Tampa Bay Lightning, 2-1 in Florida. Which now sets the table for Lord Stanley's Cup to be in the Madhouse on Monday night. Coach Quinnville's record now goes to 42-14(.750 win ptg) in playoff games 4-7. So there will be even more a buzz throughout the city of Chicago this weekend, with Kane & Toews jerseys covering the city.

The Blackhawks goals were netted by Patrick Sharp in the first with assists from Tuevo Taravian & Cpt. Johnny Toews. Antione Vermette had the game winner in the third period, which was assisted by Kris Verteeg. The Lightning followed in the second period with a goal by Valtteri Filppula assisted by Jason Garrison & Anton Stralman. Corey Crawford was amazing again in goal collecting saves on 31 of 32 shots on goal.

Game 6 of the NHL Stanley Cup Final will be Monday night at pm on NBCSN.

I'm predicting a 4-1 Blackhawks win

Upcoming Game 4's

NHL: Lightning up 2-1

Tonight the Blackhawks attempt to tie up the series at 2. After a stadium deflating loss in Game 3 in the closing minutes, you would expect the stars of Chicago to finally shine and score. So far zero goals from Kane, Toews and Sharp. An injury to Johnny Oduya could mean even more ice time for Duncan Keith, Brent Seabrook and Niklas Hjalmarsson. Coach Quinnville has said that Oduya will play Game 4, but we shall see how productive he is on the ice. Speaking of Coach Q, his Blackhawks teams in the playoffs, in Games 4-7 are a remarkable 40-14. Look for the Hawks to jump out to an early lead to keep the Madhouse on Madison rocking all night.

Cavaliers up 2-1

If you are a fan of basketball and yet haven't watched any of the NBA Finals, you are missing out on one of the greatest Finals performances ever. LeBron James has imposed his will and has lead his injury-riddled team, with its band of no-names (pre-playoffs), to two games away from his 3rd Championship. In the Finals he is averaging 41 points, 12 rebounds, & 8.3 assists. He has nearly wrapped up the MVP of the Finals, now just needs to get a couple more wins. 

On the other side, what can the Warriors do to help get more open looks or paths to the basket for Steph Curry and Klay Thompson. Neither has looked comfortable until its usually too late.
