2013 NHL Playoffs: 2nd Rd: Game 7

The "Madhouse on Madison" was going wild last night and they though the Blackhawks had gone ahead with just over 2 minutes left, BUT, in one of the WORST mistakes I have ever seen by a Ref, the Chicago goal was waved off because of coincidental minors that TRAILED the play as the puck was in Chicago's control in the Red Wing zone!!

Even with all that, the Blackhawks remained calm, cool and collected and scored the Game Winner in OT, as Brent Seabrook beat Jimmy Howard from the high slot, to send the Blackhawks to the Western Conference Championship against the defending Champ Kings.

The score was tied very early in the 3rd, but the rest of the period was end to end action, as both teams tried for that go-ahead goal.  Both Goalies did their best to keep the puck out of their nets and the game went into OT.  Well, if the Ref had let the action continue, it might not have.

The Blackhawks will host the Kings in Games 1 and 2 on Saturday June 1st and Sunday June 2nd at the "Madhouse on Madison" as the Conference Championships begin this weekend.

LETS GO BLACKHAWKS !!!!!!!!
