In the worlds of Aaliyah... if at first you don't succeed, pick yourself up and try again. The Canucks weren't even trying. They got a goal on a bit of puck luck with the shot block and then puck luck did them in on Havlat's tying goal. They had coasted through the entire 3rd period (and let's face it, about 80% of the entire game) and left it up to Luongo. The Hawks had to keep trying, and it worked out for them in the end.
I don't think the Hawks "deserved" to be ahead after 3, but they didn't deserve a loss, that's for sure.
Khabibulin needed to make one big save for Chicago. Luongo needed to make about ten. That's not a winning strategy. Say what you will about the Hawks having to come from behind and how that's not a sustainable strategy, what the Canucks did tonight was also not a sustainable strategy.
The Canucks' D got away with a lot of holding up of Hawks forwards after they dumped the puck in (the chase part). Add the two missed calls on Bolland's late chance... the Canucks just weren't moving out there.
This series deserves to be tied. Let's see who benefits the most from tonight's game.
And Av, you obviously haven't realized that Havlat is Jesus Christ. He continually saves the Hawks, brings them back from the dead. Look it up, it's a fact.
