2013 Western Conference Championship: Game 2



The Blackhawks pulled off the impossible last night, as they chased Jonathan Quick from the game.  Two goals in each of the first two periods was enough for HC Darryl Sutter, and he pulled the reigning Conn Smythe Trophy winner with the score 4-0 Chicago.  Jonathan Bernier replaced Quick and thanks to a post, kept the Blackhawks off the scoreboard for the rest of the game.  But it was to no avail, as the Blackhawks take Game 2, 4-2.

The series will now travel to sunny Los Angeles and the Staple Center, as the defending Stanley Cup Champs try to right their ship and tie this series up at 2-2.

2013 Western Conference Championship: Game 1


The Chicago Blackhawks opened the Western Conference Championship with the defending Stanley Cup Champs, the Los Angeles Kings, and the game was everything it was built up to be. 

The Kings got on the board first, as a bouncing puck and a mis-play by Corey Crawford, left the puck right near the stick of Justin Williams, who deftly swatted it in to the net. But that would be the ONLY mistake made by Corey in this game. 

The Blackhawks responded with a nifty set-up by Johnny Oduya, who cam down the left side against Goalie Jonathan Quick, but shot for the far side of the net.  The shot was blocked by Quick's left pad, but the rebound came straight to Patrick Sharp, who gathered in the puck and shot it into the suddenly wide open net.  And before you knew it, the score was tied at 1-1.

A few minutes later, a slap shot from Duncan Keith was re-directed past Quick by the super quick hands of Marian Hossa.  This goal proved to be the game-winner, as the Blackhawks kept the Kings off the board the rest of the way.



SCORING:


LAK: G Justin Williams

CB: G Patrick Sharp                         A: Johnny Oduya & Michal Handzus

CB: G Marian Hossa                        A: Duncan Keith & Bryan Bickell



Jonathan Quick made 34 saves for the Kings and Corey Crawford made 21 saves for the Blackhawks.
