OT - How about those Blackhawks!!

[-=Efrain=-]

I have been a fan since I was 10 and my favorite player was Dennis Savard and now he's coaching, how much fun is that.. The buzz is growing this season and they are looking good.

I met my husband watching the Blackhawks, Dennis, Al Secord, Doug Wilson, and youngster Roenik were skating and Alain Chevrier was in net
Roenik lost both eye teeth that night, got his face skated across and then scored a goal

I think they were playing the North Stars

Ah yes good ol Dino Cicarelli, man did we hate that guy!

[karenL]

Oh Man, haven't heard that name in a while
I always hated Theo Fleury

and it's on TV!!! I sat down with my 3 year old boy and watched a little. He was mesmerized!

Too bad the Black Hawks lost a generation of fans with that stupid bozo and his no TV policy.

Great game! Now 2nd place St. Louis tomorrow.. This will be a great test..

just like old time with Denis and Wayne
bring on the Blues

I'm still following the Hawks despite being in Hawaii. I finally get to watch "home" games too. Kane and Toews are unbelievable to watch. Now if they could only beat some losing teams, that would be great. I think I smell playoffs this year. Gotta come back to see that.

My a fan too. My new wife had season tickets when we first met...I think that sealed the deal, thinking, what a cool chick.... She gave up her seats after the lock-out. I hope the youngster does a better job. I don't think the old man was dead for two days and I saw a blackhawks billboard off the e-way....talk about getting to work fast.

Lot of home games coming up...This will be the test!

Within days they were putting flatscreens in the locker rooms and hooking up the players too!

How about those ticket prices? $80 for anything decent.

[moon jelly]

i've been a hawks fan since the bobby hull, stan mikita, tony esposito days! i used to have season tickets at the old chicago stadium and the first couple years at the united center. i have traveled to several out of town games to see them play including a trip to montreal to see them play their last game at the forum (another iconic hockey ice arena). go hawks! btw, you can't beat savard's spin-o-roma

Joe,

I went to the game yesterday with some friends and we got pretty good tickets for $20. Great game, 5 goals in the first 10 minutes. Going again this coming Friday.

I miss Foley calling the games.
I'd love to hear Foley and Eddie O do the games.

[karenL]

wasn't that Pat that made the "wee knee" comment

[-=Efrain=-]

I thought I heard on sports radio that there is a push to get him back.. Here is an article in the suntimes by Mariotti.

There is even a petition online to bring Pat back.
