commentary...

i can not figure out San Jose,or even Chicago... the Sharks fought like dogs to even their series,at two,but then laid a egg in Los Angeles,playing against the Los Angeles Kings,giving up two goals in about four minutes of game time,and then did nothing the rest of the game,as the Kings shut down the Sharks' offense,like a clamp on a bleeding artery... i really do not blame Sharks' goaltender Antti Niemi:he has given up only four goals,in last three games,and yet,the Sharks are down three games to two,going back to the "Shark Tank",in San Jose... they better ramp up their anemic offense... if they do,they have a chance... as for the Blackhawks,they have scored only two goals,in three games,and have lost three games,in regulation,for the first time all season... the Red Wings have not lighted up the scoreboard,but have out-scored the Blackhawks,9-2,in the last three games,and in the series,10-6,overall... what has happened to the President's Trophy winner(best record in the NHL),this season... down 3-1,in the best of seven series,against the Red Wings,when Detroit was a big underdog,going into the series is a huge disappointment... Chicago has to win all three games,remaining,in the series,if they can get to game seven,but honestly,the way that they are playing,it will be a very big hill to climb,period...
