The Chicago Blackhawks came back from the Lord Stanley Playoffs Dead on "Hump Day" as that boisterous Nashville Crowd in frame one was as quiet as a the Nashville Public Library the rest of the way. The Hawks already stealing game one looks to do the same in game 2.

"Frozen Talk Hawks" Game #2 T.G.I.F. April 17, 2015 @ 9:30pm ET
from
"Big Tire Rack" dba Bridgestone Arena
Nashville, TN

What to look for in Game 2:

The Indian Head will not be looking for that switch to turn on as that early 3-0 deficit in game 1 woke them up and its full throttle ahead. Hawks blue-paint tenant Corey Crawford has to forget game 1 as Coach "Q" believes in him as does that roster including game 1 winner Scott Darling. The "Preds" will be looking to jump o him early and often to see where his "Thinking Cap" is and rightfully so.

The "Preds" need to capitalize more on scoring the puck then getting a hit on a Hawks Player. That cost them after frame one as they appeared to be a little bit too interested in hitting then playing the puck. Yes they had 42 SOG on Darling after one period (12 SOG Crawford in Period 1) but the Hawks skill level and skating took over the rest of the way. Pekka Rinne played well in net after his horrible 2nd frame and we will see how both net minders handle game 2 as the first ten minutes will tell the tale for game 2.

Players to watch in game 2:

#CHI
Crawford
Rozsival
Kane

#NSH
Rinne
Wilson
Fisher
