stanley cup finals schedule 2009

stanley cup finals schedule 2009

Tonight is do-or-die night for the Chicago Blackhawks, as they find themselves in a 3-1 series hole and facing elimination tonight against the Detroit Red Wings in the Motor City. Without the services of G Nikolai Khabibulin, the Hawks were decimated on their home ice by the Wings by the count of 6-1 on Sunday afternoon to give Detroit the comfortable advantage. He’ll probably be out once again tonight, though HC Joel Quenneville hasn’t totally ruled out his starting goaltender. After the embarrassing results of Game 4, the Blackhawks have been lined as hefty +200 underdogs, while the ‘total’ has been set at 5.5 over -135. You can find all of the great Stanley Cup betting lines at JustBet.com right now!The youthful Blackhawks got a big time dose of reality when they were trounced by the Wings in Game 4 on their home ice. Absolutely nothing went right for G Cristobal Huet, who was making his first career playoff start in relief of the injured Khabibulin. He only stopped 21 of his 26 shots faced, which simply isn’t good enough to get the job done against anyone at this level in the postseason. Even worse for Quenneville’s squad, his top offensive players never really got shots on the Detroit net either.
