Chicago Blackhawks Morning Links- Stadium or United Center

Good morning Chicago Blackhawks fans! The other night on Twitter I posted the question, Chicago Stadium or United Center, and I was kind of surprised by the responses.

Just for reference, the reason to pick Chicago Stadium is that you felt like you were on top of the ice, there was something about walking into the old barn that was magical, it’s the loudest arena I’ve ever been in, and there is always something mystic about a place that no longer exists.

The United Center is a place where it’s way modern and it’s where the Chicago Blackhawks have won 3 Stanley Cups and it’s the arena most fans really know.

When I posed the question, i expected the Chicago Stadium replies, but I have to be honest, I was kind of shocked more fans weren’t for the United Center.  Here are some of the replies we received the past few days.

Thanks again to everyone that responded to the question on Twitter this week, and here are some morning links to kick off the shortened work week!
