Learning, Top Line Success, Nazar’s Speed, Dickinson’s Perspective, and Other Blackhawks Bullets

The Blackhawks lost a game last night. I really like this paragraph from Mark Lazerus’ postgame for The Athletic after accounting for Minnesota’s three-goal comeback: None of those was a ghastly, unforgivable miscue by the Blackhawks. The Wild are just good. And they fought back. Sometimes that’s just how it happens. Hockey’s not always a zero-sum game. Earlier this morning I wrote about the idea of “good losses” for the Blackhawks right now. This roster will undoubtedly evolve i...

Two protestors, Renée Nicole Good and Alex Pretti, were openly murdered by ICE agents and smeared as aggressors by Donald Trump and his administration. Unsurprisingly, the billionaire owner of the Twins, when asked to […]

Blackhawks 3, Wild 4 (SO) — Three Stars, Key Takeaways

If you were wondering how the new-look top line would do for the Blackhawks, they scored the game’s first goal only 79 seconds into the game (on their first shift). The Hawks then proceeded to out-skate the Wild for most of the rest of the opening period, and doubled their lead almost 14 minutes after the first goal. Chicago took a 14-8 shots on goal advantage and 2-0 score to the room after 20 minutes. You knew the Wild were going to push back in the second period, and they did. The next...

Common Cold: Blackhawks at Wild Preview

The Hawks are up north this evening for a Central Division matchup against the Minnesota Wild.
