Good morning Chicago Blackhawks fans! Finally, after a ridiculously long week in the middle of February, the Chicago Blackhawks are back on the ice tonight!
The Chicago Blackhawks had a week off, and if you want to know what the Chicago Blackhawks did on their week off here is a small list of some of the Blackhawks stars vacation trips.
#Blackhawks bye-week travels:
— John Dietz (@johndietzdh) February 17, 2017
Joel Quenneville went to Vail.
Corey Crawford went to Salt Lake (he did NOT ski).
Patrick Kane went to Mexico.
The one thing to be wary about tonight is that no team has won their first game back after their bye week so far this season.
Carolina lost to Colorado tonight. So teams coming off their bye are now 0-5-1 in February. The Avs had been 4-23-1 in their last 28 games.
— Mark Lazerus (@MarkLazerus) February 18, 2017
Of course, there always a first, so I’m all for the Chicago Blackhawks winning tonight, and becoming the first team to win after their bye week.
The last time we did see the Chicago Blackhawks on the ice they were dominating tonight’s opponent the Edmonton Oilers as they were coming off their bye week.
Want your voice heard? Join the Blackhawk Up team!
The Blackhawks are now 7 points behind the Minnesota Wild with no games at hand, so every games a big one when it comes to playoff seeding that the Hawks can’t just throw out tonight because it’s the first after the break.
