I am loving what the hawks have been doing the past year or so. Sorry to say, but the passing of the GM last year might have been the best thing for them. It allowed new owners to take over, and turn the team around by spending money.
In 2007, the Blackhawks were voted the worst team in sports... ouch...
Last year, the hawks were two games away from reaching the playoffs again, and they need to go out and pick up an another all star player. I strongly believe we need a goalie who can contribute game after game, even though the boulin wall had a good year last year, we can't rely on him to do it again. He has been our achilles heel since he came here. Release him, save money, and (if that rumor was true) pick up emery.
As for Hossa, i think he is a good player, and definitely did not seem to fit in Pittsburgh. I watched most of the games in the playoffs, and it always seemed like Hossa had chances, and never contributed. I don't know how well he would fit with the Hawks. If we can go out and get a young phenom, it would fit better in the hawks lineup. I don't know who, but i know he has to fit into the young/fast system.
