The team is so good... The series is tied and going to 6 at a minimum. Lets see what happens tonight.
Why is the series tied 2-2 ? Because of two OT games which are coin tosses by historical statistics. No team has a .600 lifetime ot record. Not even close to it.
While this doesnt mean anything on the actual scoreboard, what the Hawks are trying to argue is hypothetically being tied 2-2 while losing the regulation games and being outshot every OT game is some recipe for success and they should hold their head high.
The Ducks on the other hand are saying, yeah we got burned in the OT games but hey, we dont seem to be able to be beaten during the 60 min game.
I would suspect the Ducks have the higher position in terms of confidence. The Hawks cant rely on Duncan Keith playing 50 min per game all series just to eek out an OT game.
It simply will not last.
