Yeah, Vicki, the Hawks could break out at any time, sort of like the Penguins did last night in the 3rd vs the Senators. Somehow I don't think the Wings will let them though. As you say, they (Wings) have a history and tradition of playing tough.
Likewise, the Rangers are a much better team than has showed up against the Bruins so far, and tonight at home may be their night.
As to the Sharks, I hope they stay fired up and pull off a series upset of L.A.
Isn't playoff hockey fun?
