Going into last night's action at home against the Flyers, the Blackhawks had gone from a fantastic road team, to one of the worst. When they entered Philadelphia with a two games to none lead, many fans and experts alike figured the series to be finished in four games, as the young Hawks led by rookie goalie Antti Niemi and offensive stars Jonathan Toews and Patrick Kane, looked to win the first cup in half a decade for the original six franchise. Instead, the Hawks were severely out played by the Flyers and going into last night's game at the Madhouse on Madison, the series was tied with all the momentum, like in a good UFC 116 betting match up, shifted to the  Flyers and and the Free Sports Picks being on their side.

Further, although now on different lines, the Hawks top players of Kane, Toews and Byfuglien finally made their mark on the series, as all three combined for seven points.
