Meh.

Oh my God, what a boring game.
I couldn’t even get angry with the outcome, because I just sat there apathetic through the whole thing — you know, like the majority of the team did. I think the only people that showed up were Crawford and Toews.
Ugh, fine, whatever. If the Blackhawks had to lose, I’m glad it was to an Eastern Conference team that they’ll never have to see for the rest of the year.

Post-Game Quote via nhl.com:
Joel Quenneville: “We got dominated in all areas of the game tonight. They were the more determined team. We were still 1-0 in the third period and they got motivation (after the) power play or something, and the second goal was certainly not good.”
