in Game Two of the Western Conference Final during the 2014 Stanley Cup Playoffs at United Center on May 21, 2014 in Chicago, Illinois.

Heading into Game 3, Chicago Blackhawks captain Jonathan Toews used some colorful words to describe his team’s motivation. If nothing else, he’s holding up his end of the bargain so far against the Los Angeles Kings.

Toews made his first big play of the first period when he disrupted an early Kings’ power play for this nice 1-0 goal:

The Kings highlighted their ability to bounce back when Slava Voynov tied it up on that same man advantage, but Toews scored his second goal on his second shot to regain Chicago’s one-goal lead:

Toews now has eight goals and 13 points (and possibly counting) in 15 postseason games so far. He already boasts four game-winners in these playoffs.
