chicagotribune.comIs desperation just another word for panic? Tribune sports editor Joe Knowles talks with beat reporter Chris Kuc about the Blackhawks' must-win Game 5.

I'm predicting the postgame facial expression for Blackhawks head coach, Joel Quenneville, to look like THIS:

...and NOT like this.

Let's not re-create this. Not at all tonight, mmk? I don't want to hear Brent Seabrook have to mutter the words, "This f#@*ing guy..." while down on the ice. (Scott Strazzante/Tribune Photo)

Remember, the Hawks have been in this situation before. Last year against the Red Wings. They were down three games with Game 5 at the United Center. Bickell, Toews and Shaw all scored to win it 4-1.

GET OFF YOUR PHONES AND LOOK UP, GOOD SIRS. YOU ARE AT THE UNITED CENTER FOR A POTENTIAL BLACKHAWKS ELIMINATION. YOUR INSTAGRAM FEED CAN WAAAAAAAIIIIIT. NO X PRO II FILTERS NECESSARY IN REAL LIFE.

by sely 5/29/2014 12:10:30 AM
That was quick. 30 seconds into Game 5 and the Blackhawks have a power play. 2 minutes for being an idiot .... err, Doughty got a tripping penalty.

by sely 5/29/2014 12:12:19 AM
Wow. Wow. Wow. Seabrook rips one on the PP, scores 73 seconds in. 1-0 Blackhawks EARRRRRLY into Game 5.

by sely 5/29/2014 12:14:42 AM
Did the game even start, though, seriously? Seabrook strikes first, 1-0, Blackhawks.

[Insert "Oduya?" play on words] 2-0, Blackhawks, in the first three minutes of game 5.

by jgalliart 5/29/2014 12:26:38 AM
Kings wanted that one more. Puck just wouldn't leave Crawford alone. 2-1 Blackhawks, with a goal by Jarret Stoll. We have 10 minutes to play in the first period of Game 5.

by sely 5/29/2014 12:31:05 AM
And now? We're at 3-1. Saad with the goal. THERE IS SERIOUSLY A GOAL EVERY 3 MINUTES. Now this is hockey.

GO IN GO IN GO IN GREAT THANK YOU. Saad takes the Blackhawks to 3-1.

by jgalliart 5/29/2014 12:38:11 AM
It's now 3-2. If you're a math major in school, you'll know that's 5 goals in a 13 minute span. Meaning, like, a lot of goals have been scored in a short amount of time. WHY IS NO ONE SAVING ANY SHOTS OR WHATEVER?

Well that was an absolutely insane 1st Period. Blackhawks lead 3-2 after 20 minutes. Take a breather, crack another brew and we'll see you again in 17 minutes.

In case you were wondering —> Blackhawks still winning 3-2. 15:30 to play in the 2nd period. Quiet period so far. But...at any minute...

3-3 tie. Wow. The lead is gone. Blackhawks need to play with more care. Letting a lot of silly rebounds bounce into Kings' laps.

End of 2. Blackhawks down 4-3. 20 minutes left to make this end happily, and not like an F'n Taylor Swift breakup song.
