The Blackhawks might regret spending the last days of training camp and first two games of the regular season in Europe. It’s been a taxing trip on the players, what with the eight-hour time change between Chicago and Helsinki. It was a good project for team bonding and good for the NHL to expose its product beyond North America, but now the Hawks have to adjust their body clocks all over again for the return to the U.S. and still another road game in Detroit on Thursday. This little stretch of three games is the first good measure of the Hawks this season.
added 2:08pm, from Mike Kiley of Blackhawks Confidential,
Shut up about the Stanley Cup finals being within reach. Shut up about One Goal. Shut up about Cup or Bust.
Once again, the Blackhawks have to learn a hard lesson from the Detroit Red Wings. Drop the puke and play.
