The Blackhawks made a statement in taking game 1 in a comeback victory on the road in Tampa Bay. The Hawks found a way to battle back for 2 third period goals after trailing since a first period Alex Killorn strike. But as the Blackhawks are always so dangerous, they solved Ben Bishop and their own keeper (not facing crowd chants) Corey Crawford stood tall. But it was a tight game and the rest of the series should prove entertaining as it should be a very competitive Championship. Plenty of Stanley Cup news to get to today.
We'd also like to wish a speedy recovery to our own writer, Dakota Case.
