Chicago Blackhawks Tag

This month’s Sports Traveler blog takes us to the “Windy City” in which I reside, Chicago! The city has its fair share of amazing sports venues, and this month’s blog highlights “The Madhouse on Madison.”
The United Center hosts both the NHL’s Chicago Blackhawks and the NBA’s Chicago Bulls, two teams always competitive in their respective divisions. And it was last Friday I attended a Blackhawks game right at the United Center. From the moment you pull unto Madison Avenue on the West side of Chicago you can feel the energy radiate from the fans on the street all marching towards the United Center! Half of the fun of the night was interacting with other fans, including fans of the opponents at the game.
I was just getting into the arena a few minutes late, side note always leave early to guarantee stress-free parking, and walked into a guttural rendition of O-Canada. One of the most famous traditions at the United Center came next, the cheering of the national anthem! The UC literally was

Whoa! The sports world is going crazy right now! So much going on and it is all too exciting to miss. To catch up with the sports world I have harnessed all the major news/results from the recent events. I am going to briefly hit on each sport and give a few predictions for the Masters, MLB, NBA, and NHL. Ready? Lets go!
NHL
Seems like the season just started but it will shortly be coming to an end. But I guess that's what happens when you are in a shortened and compressed 46 game season. Thanks lockout. The story early on in the season was the winning streak by the Chicago Blackhawks and then both the Anaheim Ducks and Pittsburgh Penguins went on their own winning streaks. Although no one has matched a start like the Blackhawks, it seemed for a while like the Penguins might be the best team. Now that Crosby is out the battle for best appears to be between the Ducks and Blackhawks.

The Chicago Blackhawks have started off the 2013 NHL season like a house of fire. Going into a lockout shortened season, I'm sure every team has a lot of questions as to what level the team could perform at. Many of the players had been playing in other countries but I would imagine that conditioning played a role for all players. Being rusty to start this season would almost be expected. Not for Chicago. The team has come ready to play since the first puck dropped.
Through 19 games the Blackhawks have accumulated 35 points and also set the record for most games without a regulation loss to start a season. The record continues to grow after last night's 1-0 win over Edmonton. Their record currently sits at a robust 16-0-3. The Hawks 16 wins are most in the NHL and 3 more than any other team. The next closest team in the West is the Anaheim Ducks with 27 points and a record of 13-3-1.
*The Blackhawks are 8-0-1 at home in the United Center and 8-0-2 on the road.
