The war of attrition in the Western Conference Final has been a battle of two different types of strengths: Anaheim’s depth versus Chicago’s skill and survivalist instinct.
The Blackhawks are so good in big moments and important games. It’s when they’re at their best. They proved this yet again in Game 6, riding an early 3-0 advantage to vanquish the Ducks 5-2 at United Center and send the series to Game 7 Saturday in Anaheim.
Duncan Keith led the charge for the Hawks, controlling the pace of the game, and notching three assists in the process.
