Ackward dance moves…
Yes, this is their series to lose. Broad Street doesn’t have anything on the talent of the Hawks.

move your arms man!
- OneMan - Friday, May 28, 10 @ 10:54 am:
Yes they will win it all… Then only two Chicago teams will the be longest without a championship in their leages.
The Cubs and the Cardinals (yes they are in Phoenix now but they started out as the Chicago Cardinals)

I take back what I said about Niemi’s experience. This last round gave me a lot of hope. We should win in 6.
- OneMan - Friday, May 28, 10 @ 10:56 am:
Also is it just me or does Quinn see to bump awkwardly into the woman next to him…

He’s almost as good a dancer as he is a poker player
- Coach Q - Friday, May 28, 10 @ 11:15 am:
everyone’s a hockey fan now. cute.
- Stones - Friday, May 28, 10 @ 11:23 am:
The swagger of a champion is unmistakable. Blackhawks in 5 games.
- Rich Miller - Friday, May 28, 10 @ 11:25 am:
OneMan, my eyes saw her trying to playfully rub her body on the guv and he moved away after a bit. But not immediately. Funny stuff, but he’s single, so no biggie.
- OneMan - Friday, May 28, 10 @ 11:27 am:
Nothing wrong with it… After Rod it’s nice to see a governor lacking in smoooooth
- Fan of the Game - Friday, May 28, 10 @ 11:37 am:
Best chance in ages. I say they win.
And the world would be a better place if we all danced a little more.
- unclesam - Friday, May 28, 10 @ 11:44 am:
He should have just started dancing with the woman next to him — would have been a classy move to use a dance partner.
Also, Rich, you should close the comments today with the full video of “Chelsea’s Dagger” in honor of the Blackhawks. The Trib posted it yesterday, I think.
- Coach Q - Friday, May 28, 10 @ 11:49 am:
if you’re going to promote the hawks on here, don’t play chelsea dagger. play the playoff intro: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kdZFG1REV3c

Great picture.
Quinn, “We owe wha???”
- just sayin' - Friday, May 28, 10 @ 12:01 pm:
That says it all. The only thing Quinn really has going for him is that he’s a lovable loser. He’s the political version of the Cubs.
Quinn makes Buzz Aldrin look like Denny Terrio with those moves.

I can kind of understand why the man is currently single.
- wordslinger - Friday, May 28, 10 @ 2:36 pm:
Hawks in five.
Niemi has been standing on his head, but Toews is the guy. He’s like a young Messier — whatever needs to be done, he can do it. He makes everyone around him better.

I think I’ve said this here, but at the final buzzer after the Red Wings lost in the Cup last year, I picked the Blackhawks to win it in 2010. I’m sticking with my pick.

But did you see Pelosi presiding over the House in a Sharks jersey? Of course not…
