Well, it isn’t exactly 2 goals in 17 seconds on the road in Game 6 of the 2013 Stanley Cup Finals, but 3 goals in 34 seconds ain’t too shabby. We were flipping around, and just like that, it went from 1-0 Capitals to 3-1 Blackhawks in the 2nd period; bam! I was able to tune into some of the 3rd period; I saw what I thought was the game winning goal by Brinsky Cat, but… the game went to OT after another last second game tying goal by the opponent, but just like the last time, the Hawks prevailed in OT. Nice… we’re kind of getting used to this.
The Hawks have went to OT six times since King became the head coach, and 6 times the Hawks have prevailed. There have been 3 OT winners and 3 Shoot Out winners; that’s pretty impressive… or is it just dumb luck? I think at this point it’s more than just dumb luck… it’s more than just that new coach adrenaline, although since that 4 game winning streak to start King’s tenure, the Hawks have alternated losses and wins 6 times. That’s right L, W, L, W, L, W, L, W, L, W, L, W… what comes next? Well, Friday at the UC against the Preds, if the pattern holds, we’re looking at a Blackhawks loss. Players make your bets…
If the Hawks really want to turn it around, as I’ve mentioned before, and as King has now mentioned, they need to string them together; there’s no better time than now. The Blackhawks had 3 days off before this OT win against the Caps due to a postponed game due to the Calgary Flames and COVID; fun stuff. Yes, it was no Bulls, and no Hawks, until this hump day battle. Glad to see them back. They will play again before we see the Bulls back.

In the 10 wins since King became coach, Fleury has won 8 of them. In the 6 losses since King became coach, Lankinen has lost 3 of them. So 8-3 for Fleury, and 2-3 for Lankinen… have to play your backup goalie though right? And the last time we played the Preds, which was the inaugural King game, it was Lankinen getting the W… in OT! Love digging in these #s.
The Hawks have been shutout 2x in those 6 losses, which is 1 more time than the first 11 losses under Colliton. 4 of the losses… only 2 goals, while the most recent loss, a nice comeback against the Leafs in Toronto, the Blackhawks scored 4 goals. Morale of the story: 2 goals won’t get it done, although it has 2x out of the 10 wins, while 1 goal got it done 2x as well. OK, where am I going with this?
Honestly, nowhere in particular, although… I’m kind of feeling like the boys will break that pattern on Friday night; I’m leaning more towards the likelihood of a winning streak than a losing streak… of course I am. Let’s Go Hawks!!!
