The Lightning had a JUMP to them last night.
Bishop went from sucking, to outstanding, in two short days.

Two very interesting series pounding it out right now.
Doesn't it feel like the Wild stopped playing a month ago?
How worn down would we be by now?

Never thought he'd be the kind of leader he currently is.
Uber talented guy who knew he had to change his ways if he wanted to reach the top.

As mentally beat as we looked after Chicago, I just can't see us competing at the same level that these teams are right now.
As promising as things looked to begin last season, it appears we gained no ground on the elite teams in the league. All we can hope for now, is our young guys take the next step sooner rather than later.

Just not enough yet to be in it for the long haul.

Status: offline 		As Melrose states today ... IF the plan of the Ducks to be physical with the Hawks IS working, we will start finding out tonight.
Games 5-6-7 will tell if the plan is working.
Normally I'd say yes ... but this is Chicago. They somehow summon up a reserve every time you think they cannot.
Winner tonight takes a huge leap forward.

They'd kick anyone's ass tonight.
Nothing the Hawks can do.

Which is exactly what Melrose preached today
He literally said ..... The Hawks four D will hear footsteps all night and will turn pucks over.
If the plan has worked.

Status: offline 		Yep, as Mutt and Jeff are saying ... Coach Q may as well give the bulk of the remaining D minutes to mr 5 and Mr 6.
That's only IF you get after it the first ten here and can't close the lead.

They stop even looking
Plays right into the Hawks hands

You can't play keep away for forty minutes

Still think it's over boys?
Coach Q musta had it on in the Hawks locker room
Chicagos been just as dominant this period as Anaheim was in the first
