My favorite comment so far is from Elmhurst Patch Editor Karen Mellinghausen Chadra, right after the game: "OMG best game ever!! Hawks!!!!"
But there are so many great comments from Batavia and Geneva residents on social media before and after the Hawks' stunning, come-from-behind, final-minute win in Boston to clinch the Stanley Cup.
From Batavia Patch Facebook page:
- Jill Jensen Olden Yep!!
- Heather Dalmasso Awesome season, awesome series, great win. Such a well balanced team!
- Tim Tumminaro Repaint the water towers !!! Well its a thought ... Ok maybe not.
- Sue Petersen "Oh what a night!! Thank You!"
- Kimberly A Zink-Hedger Epic ... congratulations to our Blackhawks ... thank you for the adrenaline rush!
From Geneva Patch Facebook page, prior to the game, asking if the series would finish Monday night or go to seven games. (I thought it would go seven. :)
- Lynn Shepherd Landberg Please let it be six - too much drama! I love it though.
- Sandy Olsen Hubby and kid say 7...I say it needs to be 6 'cause my heart won't take it!
- Pops Hrdlick Hawks in 7
- Jim Johnson I hope tonight, but feel it will go 7.
- Sue Atkinson Exciting last minute! Wow unbelievable!
