Down 3-0 late in the 3rd. Hawks getting swept in the 1st round by the lowest ranked playoff team is the biggest surprise of the playoffs.

Lol. My bracket is done thanks to this series, too. I had the Hawks losing to Pittsburgh in the final.

Whoa baby, never expected a sweep! No, not Chicago. Not a sweep, nope, no one could foresee this coming.
Congrats to the Preds. Great franchise-boosting victory.

Toews had 1 goal and 1 assist in Chicago's 4 games. Malkin has 11 points in 5 playoff games this year.

Jesus Christ. Chicago's bottom 6 this year consisted of guys like Dennis Rasmussen, Ryan Hartman, and Tanner Kero. Yeah, I don't know who they are either. Oh, and Jordan "there's literally no way this guy is still playing in the NHL, wait seriously?" Tootoo. Chicago's "deepest and strongest" years are so far behind them that claim is hilarious.
Not to gloat or anything, but I picked Nashville to beat Chicago. I also picked Minnesota to win the Cup though...

Hartman actually had 19 goals this season as a 21 y/o rookie. He's not exactly the scrubbiest scrub to ever scrub. The others, though . . . scrubs.
The Hawks did have six 20+ goal scorers this seasons, so, their top 6 was as deep as a top 6 is realistically likely to be. Unfortunately for them, other than Hartman, no one else scored more than 6. So, their bottom 6 was, well, ungood.

It's an impressive feat, although when one of your regular top-6 players is Richard Panik I just have to wonder a little about the actual quality of the group.
