Alright time for a recap. In a game 3 thriller at the Madhouse, the blackhawks win in overtime 3-2 with a shot from Big Buff with the help form dave bolland. Before the game, Joe Thornton called out the blackhawks forward saying "He is little and i am big. He is easy to play against actually." -Really Joe pretty sure he scored a goal and got an assist on the OT winner.. Really easy...eh! No short of tension between these two teams. What a fantastic match-up. Okay now onto the game.
As the puck drops the atmosphere in the united center is electric to say the least. After a back and fourth first period and trading chances it was scoreless after one. Then as the second period begins so does the blackhawks penalty spree.
After two consecutive penalties on Joe Pavelski the sharks light the lamp first and Patrick Marleau gets one for the sharks. But as the period goes on the blackhawks continue to take penalties but seem to kill them off. Then Sharpie breaks out with a beauty front eh captain and Lights up Nabokov and ties it up at one. Then off to the third period with great battles and skating from end to end and then Dave Bolland makes Joe Thornton realize how a small man plays BIG! and makes it 2-1 for the hawks with a win in sight Patrick Marleau pulls the clutch and ties it up. This puppy went to OT. In a thrilling overtime, Big buff is his true fashion tallies one home and pushes the hawks up 3-0 in the series.
Toews gets 2 assists, giving him 13 straight games with a point. It's a new Blackhawks single-postseason record, passing Stan Mikita!
As the blackhawks go into game 4 looking at the possibility of closing it out, they must remember to take it one game at a time and that the sharks may be down but they are most definitely not out by any means. Led my Captain Jonathan Toews the Blackhawks are imposing their will on all their opponents.
Peace out and see you sunday afternoon hockey fans!
