It was billed as How do the defending Stanley Cup Champions stave off elimination? Then it was the Blackhawks in order to have a shot needs offensive output from either Patrick Kane and Jonathan Toews or both!

Well 5 frames into Game #5 it was the St. Louis Blues letting the Bison City Mullet #88 dance with the Frozen One and it cost them game #5 and just like that we have a Hawks Winner and a game #6 back at the Madhouse!

Patrick Kane weaving through traffic goes around the goal crease to beat Blue Notes blue-paint tenant Brian Elliott for a 4-3 game-winner as the Hawks still down 3-2 in the series has life. St. Louis out shot Chicago 46-35 but don't tell me how many shots but tell me how many went in and at what juncture into the game!

Both net minders played their tales off as Corey Crawford and Elliott each made some serious stops leading up to Kane's game-winner.  Now we have the Blue Notes coming back to the scene of the crimes in game #3 and #4 as the Hawks lost both of those games. The pressure has to be on the Blackhawks to get a "W" on home ice but more on the Blue Notes to close out the defending Stanley Cup Champions!

Let's go Hawks Nation as the Magic Number in the grand scheme of things is down to 14 but I won't start counting until we get to single digits....Lol!
