Seeing the Blackhawks live is an unbelievable experience. Just imagine 22,000 people who start screaming and never stop. By far the most boisterous fans Ive ever seen. This year was special because it was the first year old man Wirtz "owner" wasn't around. The old man ruined that franchise and till the end didn't allow the home games to be telecast. Well, he croaked, and Now his son is in charge and every home game is on good old channel 9 and every game was sold out at home for the 1st time since I was a kid.
It was the biggest game in town when I was growing up and hopefully the team, one of the 6 NHL originals, will be restored to greatness.
Vancouver is tough but were a team that doesn't quit.
