With Pat Maroon’s impending retirement, I thought I would write about what he has meant to the #Blackhawks  in a short time. He’s meant a lot. thehockeywriters.com/blackhawks-g...

It’s the Eve before the 2025 trade deadline. It might be the calm before the storm for the #Blackhawks . Here are my 10 thoughts before the deadline—- just thinking out loud thehockeywriters.com/blackhawks-t...

We’re one week away from the trade deadline. Questions linger that will likely be answered in the offseason, but there are 3 questions I keep pondering. #Blackhawks #THW thehockeywriters.com/3-blackhawks...

Just like us, the #Blackhawks  watched the 4 Nations Face-Off, and took some notes. The tournament could bring another blueprint for their rebuild. thehockeywriters.com/blackhawks-s...

Good morning #Blackhawks fans! We're getting a little antsy during the break, so we put together a roundtable article discussing all things Blackhawks! With input from @brookelofo.bsky.social, @jimbay-thw.bsky.social, our colleague Hunter & myself! #THW thehockeywriters.com/blackhawks-d...

Happy Valentine’s Day!❤️ In honor of Love Day, here is my annual “3 Players Blackhawks Fans Have Fallen in Love With This Season” story! Which #Blackhawks  player gets your vote? thehockeywriters.com/3-blackhawks...

Artyom Levshunov always carries a glass-half-full attitude. As shown at practice. So, I wanted to look into how his mindset (& others) can correlate on ice for individual & team success in the future. #Blackhawks thehockeywriters.com/blackhawks-a...

Anders Sorensen described both Landon Slaggert & Ryan Donato’s games as being like “a dog on a bone” I kept thinking their games looked similar against TBL. Maybe, that’s something #Blackhawks  are looking at come the trade deadline. thehockeywriters.com/blackhawks-s...

The success rate of a 7th-round pick recording 1+ NHL points is 18.8%. Yet, Louis Crevier knew he would make the most of his opportunities, and he has. His #Blackhawks  season has been one of the best storylines. thehockeywriters.com/blackhawks-c...

This game seemed predictable. #Blackhawks  beat the red-hot Habs. Then, get smoked by a floundering NYR team, who were on a back-to-back, & whose goalie played his first game of the season. Wonderful effort The Bears finally beat the Pack!

Oliver Moore has had a short-handed opportunity in every game this tournament. Would have been a huge tying goal for USA, but encouraging to see him create those chances. Very good penalty killer #Blackhawks  #WorldJuniors

After researching Ilya Mikheyev the past few days, I noticed he was continually regarded throughout his career as the guy to help another guy. His recent play proves he can help himself just as much. #Blackhawks  #THW thehockeywriters.com/blackhawks-m...

Merry Christmas, #Blackhawks fans! Hope you are all enjoying your holiday season with loved ones!🎄

That was a WIN! CHI has always been capable of beating the best & continues to show that. Ilya Mikheyev has been a driving force in their last two wins- Scored the opening goal against the Isles & that short-handed goal against the Caps. Also Donato- Insane!!! #Blackhawks

Frank Nazar has such great hockey IQ. Really smart plays. Passes are right on the money, too. Fun to see! #Blackhawks

Teuvo Teravainen went from talking about his lack of confidence last month, to sounding encouraged after his big game against the Isles. Hopefully, it continues tonight against the Capitals. thehockeywriters.com/blackhawks-t... #Blackhawks

The #Blackhawks  penalty kill has been the best aspect of their team this season. Saved their butts in the third period, and allowed Connor Bedard to get that winning goal with 54 seconds left. HUGE. Big win for them.

Feel like it has been a while since we have been able to say Teuvo Teravainen had a good period. And now we can finally say it! 2 assists so far today. That’s the way! #Blackhawks

Dinner-time content! The #Blackhawks are finally getting the player they expected when they signed Tyler Bertuzzi And that is very encouraging! @chihockeynow.bsky.social chicagohockeynow.com/2024/12/13/b...

I will take that messy and entertaining-type hockey game all day! That performance wasn’t as beautiful as the Mona Lisa, but dang it, it’s a #Blackhawks  win! Great effort & first NHL win for Anders Sorensen! Team did everything he asked of them. 👏

Yay for Kevin Korchinski to get recalled- missed watching him play! Happy to see him back for a bit, and looking forward to seeing his development. I really hope Drew Commesso succeeds as the backup, too. Tall task for him, but it’s an opportunity! #Blackhawks

First period jump wore off quickly. Lots of kinks for the new coach to iron out, as expected. Those last 2 periods were just really bad hockey. But again, it didn’t have to be that way. They had the lead at one point. Is what it is. #Blackhawks

Well… at least the game is tied, and the Jets are not leading 3-2 because they missed the open net earlier. It’s the little things. But this second period is not it. #Blackhawks

I really hope Petr Mrazek is okay. The #Blackhawks  had every reason to get rattled with Mrazek leaving the game. But they didn’t. Shows the confidence in themselves and Soderblom in this game. Even got a 2-1 lead. Like the response. Hope it lasts!

I cannot believe I’m actually counting down the minutes to this game. Considering the #Blackhawks  should have won their last WPG game, I think they’ll be looking for redemption. Also looking forward to seeing if they play with more “tempo”, that Sorensen mentioned yesterday.

The #Blackhawks made the decision to fire head coach Luke Richardson. Now cones the real challenge of moving this team forward. Somehow, someway. @chihockeynow.bsky.social chicagohockeynow.com/2024/12/06/t...

I am in literal shock. I didn’t think the team would fire Luke Richardson. However, this is the correct move. The #Blackhawks  said the aim was for the team to move forward this season, and it wasn’t happening. But Richardson seems like a great human, and I wish him all the best.

Quiet crowds. Limited local television. Fan indifference. Last place in the NHL. This is getting pretty bleak.

The first episode of the ‘Road to the Winter Classic’ for the #Blackhawks was very wholesome. I won’t spoil it if you haven’t seen it, but Foligno shared a joke about himself from his teammates that was gold.😂

Hot take: IF the #Blackhawks  wanted to shake things up, I think Colton Dach deserves a look. He’s been in the pipeline longer, and questions surrounding his future NHL role need answers. @chihockeynow.bsky.social chicagohockeynow.com/2024/12/04/n...

Seeing the recaps of one of the #Blackhawks games against Toronto last season feels like a fever dream. Goal scorers were MacKenzie Entwistle, Corey Perry, and Tyler Johnson. The amount of turnover this team has had doesn’t fully register. And that was only 1 season ago😂

The #Blackhawks  have killed their own momentum all game. They score, and Columbus always has the answer minutes later. That is really what this game has come down to.

Alex Vlasic cracks me up with his skillset. He’s like the defenseman that no one is really prepared for game-to-game. His stick is always randomly, but perfectly placed for blocks, and hey, he’ll just take the puck to the net himself. Hard to stop. He is good. #Blackhawks

The power play has goals in 3-straight games. Heating up🔥 Needed that. #Blackhawks

Yep- Bedard is truly back! Beautiful to see. Got the scoring started early this afternoon!💪 #Blackhawks

I always looked forward to CHI/CBJ games because it was another chance to see Johnny Gaudreau. I noticed in his last game against the #Blackhawks , he had a goal. Feeling the emotions all over again this afternoon. Always for Johnny and Matthew🤍🤍

Another “Where in the World is Jonathan Toews” update from his instagram Says he feels as if his body “returned to factory settings” Great to see the Captain feeling right again! #Blackhawks

Last game, Taylor Hall scored a goal 17 seconds in. Today, the Wild scored 2 goals in 17 seconds against the #Blackhawks . I am really not digging the turn of events with 17 seconds, here!

This Laurent Brossoit news… ouchie. Was originally thought to be ready by the start of the season (or soon after)… to missing a chunk of the season. Hope this procedure does the trick! Interesting goalie carousel, but Soderblom has deserved the role he’s in. #Blackhawks

Happy Thanksgiving, #Blackhawks  fans! I’m so thankful for all your support and interactions.🧡🦃 Nothing like the Chicago fam! Hope you all have a great day and great food— Turkey tastes better after a big win!

I’m going to give a Thanksgiving toast to tomorrow about that #Blackhawks  performance.🥂 *Hall’s 1st hat trick since 2013 *Bedard’s drought snapped *Crevier’s 1st NHL goal *Mrazek made the big saves *They played a complete game They scored 6 goals against freaking Dallas!!!!

Taylor Hall had only 2 goals in 20 games this season… And now has 2 goals in this game alone.🤩 A pre-holiday boost!!! #Blackhawks

Taking a break from Thanksgiving prep to talk about the #Blackhawks  coaching. Kyle Davidson recently praised Richardson. A recent ESPN report made things sound different about his status. These different scenarios remain debatable! @chihockeynow.bsky.social chicagohockeynow.com/2024/11/27/b...

Truthfully, the #Blackhawks  got lucky that it was 2-0 to begin with. Luck sometimes goes their way, but at the end of the day, Petr Mrazek (who deserved another W), can only do so much. Can’t continue to blow leads and expect to win. Rinse. Repeat.

The 4th line is carrying the entire offense on their backs😂 Pat Maroon?! Pat Maroon! #Blackhawks

The boo birds are out in Philadelphia, and for once, it’s not aimed at a Chicago team! Beautiful thing. Nice to be a spectator to it, for once.😂 #Blackhawks

Quick shot. Lukas Reichel. Boom. Had to think the Flyers missing that 2-on-0 chance would come back to haunt them in this period (at least for now). Big goaltending leads to big plays. #Blackhawks

This team makes me laugh. They lose to the Ducks and the Sharks, but beat the Panthers. My goodness. Fun win for the #Blackhawks ! They fought for that one. Broke a lot of curses in that game, too😂 (PP, third period woes, and scoring 3 goals in a game) Bravo

“I said the average age is 95 on our line and we got it done.”🤣👏 - Nick Foligno on him, Criag Smith, and Pat Maroon’s game-winning goal. #Blackhawks

I got mozzarella sticks, so nothing that happens during the #Blackhawks  game can hurt me.😂 Ready for puck drop
