  1. Hawks talk of town

    <strong>Dan McNeil</strong> previously had been muzzled for much of his two-decade plus sports talk radio career when it came to discussing his passion, hockey. The WSCR-AM 670 late morning host even received an edict once when the team was in a Stanley Cup Final.

  2. Blackhawks got lucky

    I agree with the adage that suggests "luck is where hard work meets opportunity."
    I agree with the adage that suggests "luck is where hard work meets opportunity." It was coined by a first-century Roman philosopher named Seneca, but I always attribute it to former Blackhawk Richie Preston. It's more colorful that way and it's a way...

  5. Blackhawks-Red Wings rivalry fades

    So this is the dreamy, second-round match up that was to titillate the senses? The type of grudge match that was to rekindle all the deep-seeded ill feelings Chicagoans and Detroiters had for each other in the days of the old Norris Division?

  8. Presidents' Trophy can be a curse

    Another Presidents' Trophy banner will be raised to the rafters of the United Center next fall. With their victory Wednesday night in Edmonton, the Blackhawks ensured home ice throughout the playoffs, a distinction that can be dubious.

  9. Hawks didn't need to make moves

    If Stan Bowman spent Wednesday on the golf course instead of on the telephone, all I can say is I hope he broke 90.
    If Stan Bowman spent Wednesday on the golf course instead of on the telephone, all I can say is I hope he broke 90. There wasn't any reason for the Blackhawks general manager to make a move as the NHL's trade deadline approached. The Hawks are as...
