I’m having a hard time distinguishing the 2021 Blackhawks from the ‘18-19 and ‘19-20 versions of the team. Take the “rebuilding” label away for a...

Chicago Blackhawks still have one glaring hole in the lineup
The trade deadline has passed, and for the most part, the Blackhawks did very well. General Manager Stan Bowman navigated the draft and put the team in a good place for next season. No one that left the team will be a significant loss, and the return(s) will likely improve Chicago’s position moving forward. However, […] Chicago Blackhawks still have one glaring hole in the lineup - Blackhawk Up - Blackhawk Up - A Chicago Blackhawks Fan Site - News, Blogs, Opinion and More

Although we don’t see it in this iteration of the series, the forward group should see more changes in playing time and usage in accordance with The Plan™ for the season thanks to these...
