The Chicago Blackhawks have yet to be defeated this season
winning their first six games. I just
wonder if they will stay on top or are they just playing hot and jelling
well. Corey Crawford was just named the
second star of the week throughout the whole NHL. Marian Hossa is tied for second with five
goals this season. Hossa was injured in
the playoffs last year when Torres hit him illegally and he looks as if he came
back with a vengeance. One big question
mark I thought Chicago would face this season is goaltending but Crawford is
putting up a 1.78 GAA and a .933 save percentage. If Crawford can continue to play at this
level I think the Blackhawks will go far into the playoffs.
The way I see it they have no weaknesses and the chemistry
is there. The team is playing well
together and they have a lot of depth. Chicago
would have to go through some serious injuries to key players to have it really
affect them. I like the perfect mix of
toughness and outright skill they put out on the ice. They have a young captain who is ready to
lead his team to another Stanley Cup.
A look ahead to a week from now Chicago faces of with San
Jose another undefeated team. I consider
San Jose very similar to Chicago just with a little more toughness then
skill. I think it would be an awesome
game in general, but what if both teams were still undefeated?
