After a four game loosing streak, the Hawks got back on track and have been winning many of their recent games. One of their recent games was on Sunday December 11. This game was at home against the San Jose Sharks. The game was close until the last 2 minutes. The Sharks led the game the whole way. With 1:30 left on the game clock, the Blackhawks are out in front on a breakaway. They shoot.... and goalie Anti Niemi can't stop it. The game is tied!!!! The Hawks keep the score tied until the end of the 3rd period. The game is going into overtime. Minutes tick by and nothing exciting happens, but then Jonathan Towes and
Patrick Sharp are 2 vs. 1. Towes shoots, stop by Niemi, rebound shot by Sharp. HAWKS WIN!!!
The game was incredibly exciting and definitely intense. It was a great game and was a good game to get the Hawks back on track. Currently, they are in 1st place 40 points and a record with 18-8-4. They have a really good chance of making the playoffs. There are 7 games over winter break and I will be sure to watch every single game and cheer the Hawks on to victory.

WOW! This sounds suspenseful! These kinds of games are always the best because you are hooked the whole way through!
ReplyDeleteI recently went to a volleyball game where the two teams were one to two points apart the whole game! We were switching off standing and sitting (cheering for our team) every two seconds, but it was a ton of fun! The game was a nail biter, but our team ended up winning!
Anyways, I really want to go to a Hawks game. It sounds so intense and apparently hockey is one of those sports that everyone gets very into (lots of cheering and chanting and stuff!). I hope I can go in the future.
Thanks for the post! Your blog really helps me keep up to date with sports even if I don't have time to watch the actual game, so thanks for that too :D Awesome blog!
