The Chicago Blackhawks are on a west coast swing in this early part of the season. The marathon that is 82 game has begun and won't end until sometime in the Spring. This team looks different from last year's team. This team is hungry.
They won in Phoenix and are leading Colorado. It looks like a good start to the season. The Hawks trail the Red Wings by a point in their Division. The task right now is getting familiar with players on lines, and honing your skills. The points will come. First you have to play as a team, something the 'Hawks didn't do until they were 0-3 vs. Vancouver and almost pulled off a historic comeback. That was last year, now it's a new season and a new team.
