Despite Brian Campell's power-play goal at 11:09 and outshooting Vancouver, the Blackhawks weren't able to come back.
Vancouver's Roberto Luongo looked more like an All-Star by making 23 saves tonight after allowing five goals in the second half of Game 2.
Vancouver now leads the series 2-1, but the Hawks will have their chance to even the series at home for Game 4 Thursday night.
Canucks fans are so excited, they're counting down the number of games left to the cup:
Ryan_the_Iowan Sad that the internet outage meant I missed the @jimlee00 do-over, but glad that the Canucks stomped the Blackhawks!
Lorna_Vespa MMMM. Wings for dinner.... But I'm not looking past the Blackhawks. Go Canucks! Great away game!

BebeZed So wooohooo! Mah #canucks did it again! I almost had it right - I said 3-2 Canucks, it ended up 3-1 Canucks. All good! :)
Blackhawks fans were disappointed with their teams performance:
Schaumy Well, that loss certainly shakes my confidence in the #Blackhawks winning this series.
jeffcagle it would be nice if the Blackhawks would stop making two and three extra passes before the shot.
Lh08 I am not at all happy with the outcome of todays Blackhawks game.
stevewsop Devastating #blackhawks loss. They simply cannot handle the trap in the neutral zone. That was just sad to watch.
But there are always those typical optimistic Chicago fans:
4wesome yeah, well...Chicago teams are always best when they come from behind. #Blackhawks #slightlynaughty

Do the Blackhawks have another comeback in them?
The Vancouver Canucks are leading the Chicago Blackhawks 3-1 in Game 3 of the NHL playoff series at the beginning of the third period.
The Canucks have a 2 point lead but their fans are getting nervous:
rjdempsey Second period done. Canucks looking good. Blackhawks starting to show some energy. 3-1 #Canucks keep it up!
TeamCanada2010 Canucks playing a smart controlled game so far up 3-1

Are Blackhawks fans livin' on a prayer? They're hoping for another comeback:
ChelseaLScott Come on Blackhawks... make that comeback!
RyanK And to the 2nd intermission... #blackhawks in a hole, but its 'ONLY' two goals... right?
JacobyStieneker A blackhawks comeback would be nice
JanisMabalay is going through a bit of anxiety because of the Blackhawks. I wanna throw my tacos at the TV!!!
LevNaginsky Glad my day is pretty much over, hoping the #blackhawks come back in the 3rd.
Oblivion These freakin' Blackhawks better kick it in for the 3rd Period. If I can run when I'm dog-ass tired and unmotivated, they can win at home.:D
