Something has to give. I'd like to think PK will show up on Saturday and TB will blow up as they've done once in each of their three previous series this year. Could go either way thoughGame 3 road winners in the final after a 1-1 tie are undefeated or something.

the stuff about "Team that wins game 1 wins blah blah % of the time" is kind of dumbAll these previous statistics are so dumb. Has nothing to do at all with the present series.Something has to give.

but, the stuff about the Blackhawks having a phenomenal record in games 5 through 7 over the past handful of seasons seems pretty relevant since it's mostly the same players/coaches.
they are hurting a bit on D, but this group of players has a pretty strong track record in these situations. They are great at closing out series.
Was surprised they blew game 5 against Anaheim when they gave up 3 early goals, but they dominated from that point forward and played their best hockey in games 6 and 7. They seem to get better late in series.
This Tampa group has finished strong as well. They just haven't had as many opportunities in the past. We knew this going in that one team had a ton of playoff and championship experience and the other team didn't. Typically it seems like most young teams that make runs like this hit a roadblock at some point. Will be interesting to see if Tampa can push through and prove to be the exception.
Pretty sure Chicago won't be very easy at all to beat in 2 out of 3 games at this point, but Tampa has carried play for much of the series so far. I'm expecting Chicago to figure things out a bit, but maybe the defense issues will limit what they can do.

It's largely irrelevant because none of those games came against Tampa. Same with the whole Rangers are x and x in elimination games since 2012 or whateverstat we heard from last round.
Chicago is obviously a great team and going to be hard to beat. I can tell that from the multiple cups. Some dumb stat isn't needed. They have lost before.

Here was an article from last year:

When you put up those records in the playoffs while mostly playing strong teams in the West, it's not meaningless (IMO). It's pretty amazing.
