It's been fun seeing Chicago get back into that championship frame of mind. Sure, there are an awful lot of new Blackhawks jerseys out there.

But there are also hockey prayers in the comments of our breaking sports coverage.

This one comes from reader "Mrs MMMM" on May 18:

"Good time for this one...

Our father who art in Chicago, hockey be thy name.
Thy will be done. The Cup will be won. On the ice, as well as in the stands. Give us this day our hockey sticks, and forgive us our penalties, as we forgive those who cross-check against us. And lead us not into elimination, but deliver us to victory. In the name of the fans, Lord Stanley, and in the name of da Blackhawks. Amen!"

Two wins down, two to go. Mrs MMMM's hockey prayers -- so far -- look like they're being answered.
