Chicago Blackhawks Win The Stanley Cup
The Chicago Blackhawks have won the Stanley Cup-
For the first time since 1961.
I am still absorbing the realization that they have won.
This young class of hockey players have the chance to dynasty.
Jonathan Toews, Patrick Kane, and Antti Niemi are more than
Jeremy Roenick, Tony Amonte, and Ed Belfour.
Without Roenick, Amonte, and Belfour these current
Blackhawks could have never been built. The organization
learned through mistakes and have advanced into the modern
era of franchise management :
1] embrace the former players with respect and honor.
2] recognize the fan base and dignify them with what they deserve.
3] draft very wise and develop young talent.
This is the beginning of something big.
If done correctly this should be a run akin to the Chicago Bulls
run in the 1990’s. Which if you remember was an extraordinary
time to be living in the city of Chicago.
On the 26th anniversary of Randy Rhoads’ death, Chicago defeats Washington 5-0 as future Blackhawks goaltender Christobal Huet watches from the Capitals’ bench. It’s a bittersweet day in metal history but a great day for the Punk Surgeon and Evil Vince as they leave the arena in a euphoric state after the win! The Blackhawks Organization honors former goaltender extraordinaire Tony Esposito on this night!

Christopher, how can I get a copy of this photo in higher resolution emailed to me?
I am attending an event this weekend with the Chicago Blackhawks and would love to have a copy printed out for autographs. It is the best picture of the UC/ Blackhawks that I have come across! Fee?
Thanks,
Chris
