Unlike last year, the Blackhawks now find themselves in an elimination game where they are the ones capable of sending a team off to their summer homes earlier than they’d hope. It’ll also be the first chance they’ve had at advancing past the opening round of the post season since the year they’ve brought home a bunch of hardware and a party that lasted all summer long.

The 3-0 shutout in last Tuesday’s game wasn’t exactly a dynamic effort but it still showed that the Hawks are capable of taking home a victory without really putting it all out on the table just yet. The Wild have started each of the games on a very strong note but the Hawks have been able to sit out the storm and even if they get behind, find a way to get back into it, even if that did take til just about the very end of regulation in Game 3.

And so it begins. Since Patrick Kane announced the Hawks’ presence to the defending champ Kings on a Saturday afternoon on January 19th, this is the date that Hawks fans have waited patiently for. It’s time for this collection on the ice to prove it’s not the first-round-out it has been the last two seasons, nor is it a hollow collection of records accumulated during an asterisk of a regular season.
