Chicago Blackhawks: Potential Playoff Horror Awaits

Chicago Blackhawks: Potential Playoff Horror Awaits

April 6th, 2013 The Chicago Blackhawks have found the road to the NHL Stanley Cup playoffs a little more rocky over the past month. Since beginning the season with a record 24 game unbeaten streak in regulation time and 30 games over two seasons, Chicago is 6-6 in their subsequent 12 games since the streak came to a crashing halt on March 8 in Colorado.
Kane And Able? - Teuvo Will Be A Nice Addition To The Madhouse

Kane And Able? - Teuvo Will Be A Nice Addition To The Madhouse

March 27th, 2013 When Brandon Saad stepped to the podium on June 22, 2012 to announce the Blackhawks first round selection in the National Hockey League entry draft, many were expecting a different name to be called. Maybe Malcom Subban perhaps. But instead, the team might have secured the steal of the summer when they selected then 17 year old Teuvo...
The NHL Shootout and Other Potential Changes

The NHL Shootout and Other Potential Changes

March 20th, 2013 Hockey has been in my blood for over three decades. I started playing at age six and watched the New York Islanders on WHT television with my dad after the Uncle Floyd show. My first game was a tense affair between the Islanders and cross town rival New York Rangers at Nassau Coliseum. I was fortunate enough to be present at the...
Salary Cap Reduction Will Tomahawk Chicago

Salary Cap Reduction Will Tomahawk Chicago

March 15th, 2013 When you look around at the financial landscape of professional sports, you see a frightening example of why it is so difficult to create and keep together a team that can win multiple championships. The Montreal Canadiens of the late 1960s extending into the mid-1970s were one of the greatest legendary dynasties in professional...
Blackhawk Down?

Blackhawk Down?

March 11th, 2013 They say that good things don’t last forever. While being nothing more than an assumption, of course, it mostly rings true in the sports world and particularly, the National Hockey League, where parity reigns supreme and you are not the best until you are hoisting the Stanley Cup in June.  There are no trophies or awards given out...
Chicago Blackhawks: Midseason Grades

Chicago Blackhawks: Midseason Grades

March 8th, 2013 At the midway point of a remarkable run, the Chicago Blackhawks are still undefeated. Of course, this means nothing at the end of the day, as you do not get to rise the Stanley Cup over your head for winning regular season games. But impressive? Absolutely. And no matter where the rest of the season takes the Hawks, one thing is for...
Can You Win and Still Lose? Hawks Extend Streak

Can You Win and Still Lose? Hawks Extend Streak

March 7th, 2013 The Chicago Blackhawks took the ice last night looking to extend their NHL record of consecutive games to start a season without a regulation loss. The opponent on national TV would be the Colorado Avalanche, playing their second game of a back to back after bowing to the Detroit Red Wings on Tuesday 2-1. GAME RECAP Prior to the...
Coaching or Talent - Which is More Responsible?

Coaching or Talent - Which is More Responsible?

March 6th, 2013   The merits of a head coach in the National Hockey League are well documented, from Scotty Bowman to Al Arbour to Glen Sather and Fred Shero. Not to mention the late Roger Neilson, who personally introduced the hockey world to the wonderful technology that is game tape to scout an opponent. I have always been enamored with...
