But he was not scoring when he got wharcked by Raffi Torres. He had 77 points in the regular season. When your star players can't score a goal, that's a recipe for an early exit. But coach Dave Tippet's plan is working to a near perfect scenario. This has been a close series, only because the Coyotes don't have the big guns as Chicago does. I wouldn't be suprised if the Hawks tie this game up late, and go into another OT, only to lose. And, it looks like Phoenix is about to do just that. It doesn't matter if you win 2-0, or 2-1, as long as you win and advance. Maybe, that's what you need in late April. They do have an outstanding goalie in Mike Smith. This team does nnot have the firepower or the superstarrs that Chicago has. They are getting outplayed by a feisty, determined team. This is great news for those fans, decked out in white in the stands out there. The Hawks trail 3-1 in games and if the Coyotes win, it will be the first time they will advance beyond the first round in Franchise history. They trail 1-0 going into the 3rd frame in the pivotal fifth game.

If they can get contributions from them, they have a good chance to head back to Phoenix for a day in the sun and game 7. The Hawks also need a good game from Dave Bolland and Marcus Kruger. It would also help if Patrick Kane got on the scoreboard. The Big stars need to continue to play big and that includes Patrick Sharp, Duncan Keith and Brent Seabrook. Let's hope it sends the message and let's hope that Marian Hossa is on the road back to a healthy recovery from that cheap shot. He has been effectively removed from the Series when the NHL suspended him for 25 games, a stiff penalty. One thing for sure is Raffi Torres won't be on the ice.
