About

Lead Blogger: Jeff Bartl

I was born and raised in Chicago, and I “Remember the Roar” in the standing-room-only section of Chicago Stadium during Game 4 of the 1992 Stanley Cup Final as Dirk Graham completed his natural hat trick. I then watched Mario Lemieux skate around the ice hoisting the Cup and hoped one day I would be able to see someone with an indian-head sweater doing the same.

At Blackhawk Up, I’m going to tie in the history of this great Original Six franchise with the present. I’ll be quick to praise when things are going well, but I’ll be just as harsh during a slump. I want readers to interact with me — share opinions, present ideas and share their stories. This isn’t just my site. Blackhawk Up will be the site of every Blackhawks fan out there who shares in the “One Goal” motto as Chicago strives for its first Stanley Cup since 1961. And remember: DE-TROIT SUCKS!
