Very heavy sigh of relief.

Fuck yes Toews. Great check into the glass and the gets his damn body in front of the net. Do that a few more times and stop making us so nervous here.

This fucking game is pissing me off. I'm getting tired of the Hawks' pathetic offense.

Selections were: Marsala, Provolone and Roasted Garlic Smoked Wild Boar Sausage with Mostarda di Frutta, Double Crème Brie Cheese and Roasted Garlic Cloves Veal Saltimbocca Sausage with Sage Mustard, Emmental Cheese and Fried Prosciutto Smoked Yak Sausage with Bacon-Garlic Mayonnaise, Ardagh Wine Cheddar Cheese and Crispy Fried Onions Smoked Texas Pork Hot Link with Ancho Pepper Mayonnaise, Garlic-Cheddar Cheese Spread and Smoked Onion Marmalade Five-Spice Kangaroo Sausage with Hoisin Mayonnaise and Asian Slaw Porcini and Parmesan Chicken Sausage with Pesto Aioli, Morel Mushroom Jack Cheese and Sautéed Mushrooms Also split a Foie Gras in the car and taking home a second one.

Take out.

Hey after an hour we're inside now.

Haha yeah, he was there the one time I came here in July. I tend to avoid the summer crowds. I'm mostly just sad about the Foie Gras dog. I've never had anything else like it.

The drive over was horrendous too. This is probably my last Friday or Saturday visit. Much better on Tuesday/Wednesdays.

Yep go figure.

Still the best second round series, by far. I missed the first 58 min of game time only to have to wait another 3 to see that chip-in winner.

Happy birthday Shelly!!

Rangers looked so flat at just 17:00 in the first period. Picking it way up now. Oh and Hawks just sucked last night. Don't want the series to end up a best-of-three.

Ryan - what time? Work's getting in the way of my plans for today but Allison said that maybe we can go Friday. Would be great to see you.

Shelly let me know when you book your flight.

I'm very likely going tomorrow for lunch. Just horrific news.

I still think the Rangers are in a good spot having stolen that first game. Just need to show up at home now. Fingers crossed for the Hawks! Smooth sailing so far. Favorite series right now is definitely Boston and Montreal. Both games have been awesome. Canadians are so resilient despite the Bruins outshooting them non-stop.

What a fucking rocket from Subban. Damn.

Rangers needed to capitalize on Philly's first period fuck-ups. Tonight will be pretty rad, hopefully Allison doesn't need the TV.

Happy birthday Ryan!

Go hawks. Great first round of hockey.

What a sweet pass from Oduya to Kane on goal #2.

Yup. Handzus was really, really great last night. Need to tighten things up for Game 4 and get this series even.

Hawks couldn't convert a penalty if their lives depended on it. LM$#N!

Over the last few years this has become my favorite postseason. A new year, a new thread. Watching Game 1 of Blues and Hawks. Some good 3rd period hits and hawks are just hanging on.
