NHL: SJ Sharks 2 Chicago Blackhawks 6 recap and analysis

1st Period

Slow start of the game for both teams till the Sharks got a man advantage and right after the 1st face-off they scored a goal with Pavelski who deflected the puck into the net but the referee behind the net called goalie interference so the goal didn't go on the board. The Blackhawks reaction came right after the end of the PP on a breakaway when Sharp scored on his second try after Niemi stopped the 1st one, the game slew down a lil bit but the home team tied it with a Karlosson's goal from the goal crease with a snap shot after a rebounded puck.

2nd Period

This has been a way more funny period to watch then the 1st one thanks to the numberous scoring chances especially on the Chicago's side who had the control of the puck for the majority of the period in fact they went ahead thanks to a Keith PPG with a beautiful snap shot from the high circle but the Sharks tied it with one of their rare scoring chances and they did it in a lucky way because the Thornton shot that would go far away from the net has been deflected by Seabrook behind the Crawford's back. The Blackhawks continue to play better than their opponents for the rest of the period but they haven't been able to find the net again.

3rd Period

The Chicago's rise continued in the 3rd period with a very fast start that saw them go ahead after just 1:21 with a Saad's breakaway goal and then took off wit the snap shot goal scored by Bickell after a perfect puck movement in the offensive zone, the Chicago's domination continue till the end of the game and brought them to score other 2 times, 1st with a Sharp's slap shot from the high circle and then an empty net goal with Hossa that ended the game in favor of the Blackhawks.

This has been a very well deserved win for the Blackhawks because after a balanced 1st period both their defense and offense improved and put in serious difficulties especially with their forecheck and puck movement.
My 3 stars of the game are: 3 Bickell, 2 Keith, 1 Sharp.
