We usually have one of these threads every year, but interest has dropped each year since only like 2 or 3 of us were posting in it. Thought I'd try this again since we have a lot of new posters and the Hawks are making history. That said....
Holy hawkey, Batman! This streak has been unbelievable, 22 games now with a point (28 if you go back to the regular season of last year), this team has just been magical.
I'm currently watching the Hawks/Wings game and I feel out of breath, this has been so intense. To a shootout we go... _________________ Martellus Bennet highlight video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5lP8fHN53t0

We started off so hot in the first period. Surprised we never scored during the 1st. Quick stat- Red Wings 2-2 in shootouts and the Blackhawks are 2-5.

With the way both goaltenders have played, it's fitting this game goes to a shootout. _________________

Also it's kind of disappointing that it took a lockout and then a big winning streak to peak the city's interest in hockey again. There was a lot of pessimism over the team last year and even the year before. _________________

Really? I hadn't sensed that pessimism at all. It sucked being knocked out in the first round two years following the championship, but I don't really remember anyone losing hope in the team. _________________ Martellus Bennet highlight video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5lP8fHN53t0 |

Yeah I'm resigned to the fact that the streak is gong to end eventually, but I'll be damned if it's Detroit or Vancouver who end it. Anyone else I won't care, but I hate those teams. _________________ Martellus Bennet highlight video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5lP8fHN53t0 |

This game reminded me a lot of the Sunday morning NBC game at Detroit during the 2009-2010 season. Playoff-caliber play with both Niemi and Howard having monster games, Hawks almost won in with Sharp/Hossa on a 2-on-1 rush at the OT buzzer, and both goaltenders lit it up again in the shootout. _________________

Gotta give props to Jimmy Howard today, he was fantastic. Any other goalie in there and the game would have been 5-1. Same could be said for Crawford. _________________ Martellus Bennet highlight video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5lP8fHN53t0 |

The fairweather fans are definitely back out in full force this year. _________________

Lol some people in the NHL thread in "Other Sports" forum are starting to get annoyed with the Hawks' streak. Haters gonna hate, I guess.

Yeah but that'll happen whenever a team is doing real well, and vice versa for when they start doing poorly. Overall I'd say that the city has still been behind the Hawks the last two years. _________________ Martellus Bennet highlight video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5lP8fHN53t0 |
