Hog Butcher to the World to see local team get butchered
I went to a Blackhawk reservation with my wife Helene. They had teepees and everything Indian you can imagine.
Is there anything Rocky Wirtz can’t do?
Soon after his old man was rotting in the ground, he got the Blackhawks on TV, made them relevant in Chicago again, oversaw a complete overhaul of the team’s attitude and image, and now he’s bringing his team’s fans an outdoor game.
“We have said from the start we are going to do everything possible to bring the Chicago Blackhawks back to the forefront of sports for our fans and the city of Chicago. This is indeed an historic announcement for the Wirtz Corporation, the Chicago Blackhawks, for our players, fans and for Chicago,” stated Blackhawks Chairman W. Rockwell “Rocky” Wirtz.
This season’s Winter Classic will be played between the Blackhawks and Detroit Red Wings at 1 p.m. on New Years day at Chicago’s Wrigley Field, where the Curse of the Billy Goat and probably Henrik Zetterberg will cause the Blackhawks to lose in calamitous fashion.
Martin Havlat is already scheduled to miss the game due to injury.
