With Tuesday’s introduction of Marty Turco as the new starting goaltender, The Chicago Blackhawks appear ready to enter the season. Stan Bowman announced that the Blackhawks would make no more moves this offseason, and that he believes the club is good enough to win again this season. After a whirlwind summer, the final picture is starting to become clear, and we can predict, with reasonabl...

Fernando Pisani signs with the Blackhawks
Posted on 18 Aug 2010 by Trent Kondo.
Former Edmonton Oiler Fernando Pisani has signed a 1 year deal with the Chicago Blackhawks worth $500,000 per year. The deal is definitely an affordable one for Chicago and Pisani should fit nicely on the 3rd or 4th line this season. This of course means another roster spot will be taken away and will more then likely be Kyle Beach who won't be getting an opening day roster spot unless he has...

Bowman’s word is no good! Niemi gone…Turco in.
Posted on 2 Aug 2010 by Trent Kondo.
It's Official, Stan Bowman's word is not one to be trusted. Bowman earlier had stated that Niklas Hjalmarsson and Antti Niemi were not going anywhere, his word was bond with Hammer but I guess he spoke to soon on Niemi and now realizes he should not open his yap to Hawk fans sending them promises he can't keep. The Hawks chose to walk away from Antti Niemi whom now becomes an unrestricted fr...

Posted on 29 Jul 2010 by Trent Kondo.
This is just a summary of what I feel are the top 10 players in each category in the NHL to date. Sure there will be many arguments for and against what I have inserted here but let's take a look at what I have and see if we agree. Center: Sidney Crosby- should not be any argument here, the "kid" is hands down the best center and possibly the player in the game today. Pavel Datsyuk- he...

Marty Reasoner dealt to the Panthers
Posted on 22 Jul 2010 by Trent Kondo.
In yet another salary dumping move the Chicago BlackHawks have dealt Marty Reasoner to the Florida Panthers for Jeff Taffe. This move will approximately save the Hawks around 600k per year. Marty has been known for being a decent face off guy and more of a 4th line specialist. Marty makes 1.15 mill/year and I can think about 100 guys that can do his job for half that price. Reasoner was a...

Cup victories – RIP Bob Probert – Prosportsblogging draft party
Posted on 18 Jul 2010 by Liam Maguire.
As the dismantling of the Chicago Blackhawks began within hours of their fourth Cup victory I immediately thought of the legendary Jack Adams and how he disemboweled the Detroit Red Wings after their seventh Stanley Cup in 1955. Adams, then GM, vowed he would not stand pat with a winning line up if he felt movement, any movement, would continue to insert new blood and keep the core hungry f...
