After allowing five goals in the first two periods of Game 1, Niemi has found his game allowing just one goal on 38 shots in the last 80 minutes he’s played. … Philadelphia’s special teams have done the job so far the Flyers have power-play goals in each of the first two games and haven’t surrendered an extra-man goal to the Hawks. Philadelphia’s checkers have done a good job in the first two games Chicago’s top line of Jonathan Toews, Patrick Kane and Dustin Byfuglien has yet to score a goal (Byfuglien has one assist) and is a collective minus-7.
This is the fifth year in a row that a team has started the Final by winning the first two games at home. The only team that didn’t win the Cup was the 2009 Detroit Red Wings. … One of two streaks will end in this game: Philadelphia has lost all six playoff games to Chicago, but the Blackhawks have dropped their last eight visits to the WachoviaCenter since winning their first trip in November 1996.
Chicago is likely to be without forwards Andrew Ladd (shoulder) for a third consecutive game. The Flyers are as healthy as any team could be after playing more than 100 games since October. We will post information about results of this match.. stay tuned.
