from Melissa Isaacson of Hey, Missy at the Chicago Tribune,. A note from a reader follows…
In response to your article of Blackhawks going to Northbrook, see the attached picture of the day the Hawks practiced at Northbrook Sports complex in 1970 when my dad took me out of school and had my picture taken with Bobby Hull when I was 10.
When I sent a copy of this picture to Brett when he was with the Red Wings in 2000 and said my son was now 10 and would love to get same pic taken, he flew us up to Detroit, took my son to a practice and game (against the Hawks, a 3-3 tie) and then came out and took same pose with my son Jake, who was 10 at the time.
more with two great pictures of Bobby and Brett Hull…

I wonder if Jake’s dad owned a donut factory or something? I keed, I keed. That’s a great story.
I’m thinking it’s just a typo, but Hull was playing for the Stars in 2000...and you’d assume the guy would know how old his kid was in a given year. The Wings and Hawks did play to a 3-3 tie in Detroit on April 10, 2002, so that part makes sense.
