The Blackhawks

I was fast asleep. I made it through the first overtime, but I couldn't stay up any longer. It didn't end until the third overtime. Here's a portion of the AP report from Yahoo...

They played for 101 grueling minutes, beginning Tuesday night and running into early Wednesday morning. The Chicago Blackhawks, looking for control of the first-round series. The Nashville Predators, searching for a split of their first four playoff games. Enter Brent Seabrook, a physical defenseman with a penchant for big postseason goals.

Seabrook scored on a booming slap shot 1 minute into the third overtime, and the Blackhawks beat the Predators 3-2 in the longest game of this year's NHL playoffs so far.
The Hawks only need one more win to get to the next round, but let's face it, they aren't playing great. This Nashville team is missing some of their best players.
