It’s been just over five months since Blackhawks legend Patrick Kane underwent a hip resurfacing procedure, a surgery that was expected to shelf him for four to six months. News of the procedure came after he played out the last few games of his eight-year deal, originally signed by Chicago, with...
Maybe Connor Bedard’s mom, Melanie, should attend every road trip. The 18-year-old led the way as part of a huge Blackhawks scoring outburst Thursday night in Tampa Bay, as Chicago rolled over the Lightning 5-3 on the first night of “Moms Trip”. Bedard tallied four points in the tilt - two goals...
Though the Tampa Bay Lightning find themselves in second place in the Atlantic Division at this point in the year, they’ve certainly had their share of struggles on the defensive end. When the Blackhawks took the ice in Amalie Arena Thursday night, they wasted no time giving that unit all they...
As the Blackhawks began a season of unknowns a month ago, much of the focus of the fans, media, and experts was on the young group of forwards led by Connor Bedard. It was commonly assumed that the defensive units and goaltenders would be subpar at best, and the real question was whether the...

It’s been two and a half years since former Blackhawks prospect Kyle Beach revealed he was “John Doe 1”, the player who reached a settlement regarding alleged sexual abuse from video coach Brad Aldrich.

It’s been an up-and-down season so far for the Blackhawks, though not many can say they didn’t see it coming.

It’s been exactly three weeks since Connor Bedard made one of the most highly anticipated debuts in the history of hockey, and the first month of the Blackhawks’ season is now officially in the books. Bedard got the unique pleasure of facing off against some of the most talented teams in the NHL in...
The Blackhawks were 3-5-0 coming into Monday night’s game in Arizona, but morale was higher than ever. Though the team found themselves dead last in the Central Division through eight games, each opponent on their record had been a true contender. They faced the Bruins, who are coming off the best...
The Blackhawks picked up a nice overtime win Friday over the Vegas Golden Knights on the road, but the celebration was hampered slightly by the fact that rookie defenseman Alex Vlasic was sent to the locker room after this hit in the second period:...
The Blackhawks are seven games into the 2023-24 season, and head coach Luke Richardson has already switched up his squad’s lines too many times to count.

Throughout the beginning of this NHL season, the focus of the media and fans alike has been on the beginning of Connor Bedard’s career, and rightfully so. But another rookie is now two weeks into his career, and with an arguably bigger storyline - Kevin Korchinski. And after Monday’s practice, head...
The United Center was rocking Saturday night even before the puck dropped. After an entire afternoon filled with pregame festivities, a red carpet arrival, exciting introductions, and a touching tribute to late chairman Rocky Wirtz, it only took the Blackhawks a minute and a half to get on the...
