BLACKHAWKS!! STANLEY CUP CHAMPS!!!!

What a game! It looked as though the Blackhawks were going to run away with it but once again the Flyers tied it up in the final minutes. A few minutes into overtime, Patrick Kane slips one by the goalie and it's pandemonium!! 4-3 in OT! Former University of North Dakota Fighting Sioux and Blackhawk captain won the Conn Smythe Trophy too!! Chicago Blackhawks are Stanley Cup Champs! Great night!!!

Post Weekend Review: Hockey!!

Friday night was Game 4 of the Stanley Cup Playoffs!! Unfortunately my Blackhawks were not victorious. They got handled for most of the game and started making a comeback but they were down by too much. The series is tied 2-2. Sad face.

I didn't do much Saturday morning but I spent Saturday night with Krista. Neither of us had plans so we went to the Bullfrog Brewery and had some great food. Highly recommended! We then decided to have an mini Office marathon, watching 4 of our favorite episodes. It was good times!

Sunday was Game 5 of the Stanley Cup and the Blackhawks dominated! I went shopping before the game started, picked up a few new clothes but I was super focused on the game. Byfuglein finally woke up and Pronger is finally wearing out! The line changes worked out really well. One more game. Victory is in our grasp!

NOOO!!!

Game 3 of the Stanley Cup was on tonight. The Blackhawks were looking great but those pesky Flyers came back to force overtime. Then in overtime, the Flyers scored right away! Game final: 4-3. What the heck! Chicago dominated road games throughout the playoffs. I don't understand. I hope I didn't disturb the neighbors as I was getting a little loud yelling at the TV. Hawks are going to need to take it to them on Friday night!

Post Weekend Review: Memorial Day

Great weekend! I put away more of my stuff and hung some more signs on Saturday. Then it was all Chicago Blackhawk time!!! My Blackhawks were victorious 6-5 but it was an awfully sloppy game. The top line of Toews, Kane, and Byfuglien barely did anything and Niemi looked horrible. I'm a little nervous about the series.

On Sunday, I spent most of the time with Krista and Kevin, one of the Links. We explored Williamsport, went to the Mall, and went to Iron Man 2. It was all great!

Monday, it was back to Blackhawk time! I worked on some reviews for my Greek Life supervisor at Western but then it was all hockey. The Hawks won 2-1. It was a defensive/goalie standoff. Again, a little nervous but it's great being up 2-0 in the series!!
