On a night when on one coast the Miami Heat earned a trip to the NBA Finals by destroying the Indiana Pacers by 25 points (in a game that wasn't even that close), the Blackhawks and Kings continued to show why (in resounding fashion) the NHL produces the better product come playoff time.

Three times the lead changed hands in this one, twice in the third period alone. There was Quick stoning a two-on-none Blackhawks' breakaway in the second to keep it a one-goal game; there was Drew Doughty roofing one in the third to tie the game at 2-2, then dishing to Alex Martinez for a wrister that put the Kings up 3-2.

And then there was Kane in total control, making brilliance look easy by slowing down the world around him.
