I tried to stick to players that actually played that position(the Buff thing is a little bit of a stretch since he mostly played wing for the Hawks, but whatever).

 

I thought about Teuvo, but people forget how solid of a player Versteeg was during his 1st run with the Hawks. And again in this scenario, these are all players playing at their peak. Bolland for example, is shot.

 

Even with that said, this team playing together now would CRUSH.

It's a great list. You could do Teuvo or Versteeg considering their roles on their respective teams were similar (the "potential young phenom"). I just hope Teuvo turns out better.

I think Ladd is the better player over Anisimov, although I agree it'd be tough to split that line up. Maybe put Ladd at 3C and Vermette at 4C

Good News: Blackhawks scored again

Bad News: My wife is going to use this to justify putting on the Golden Globes

 

In exchange for watching football all day, my main TV is on Minnie Mouse's Pet Salon right now . #DadLife

Hawks are within 4 points of the #1 seed.

Stars don't play again until Friday, so there's a legit shot (albeit without games in hand) that the Hawks could be back on top of the Central by week's end.

Hossa up to 493 goals. Could hit 500 within the next 6 weeks or so. Does 500 get him into the HOF or will he get the Roenick treatment?

I don't think there was ever any doubt Marian Hossa is a Hall of Famer.

The question is, does he go in as a Blackhawk? Or does the NHL not do that sort of thing?

Not to discredit Hossa, but I found this very interesting about Ovechkin. Pretty amazing.

@ckamka

 

Ovechkin scores #500 the day Hossa scores #492 & #493.

 

Hossa had 188 goals at the time of Ovechkin's NHL debut.
