Yes, and thank you very much for them! Flyers would be nothing without that line.

Funny how Chicago never managed to do anything with them, though.

Well, at least Tucker punked Kapenen. Easily one of the hardest hits I've ever seen. Do you think Sami realizes that they've won yet?

Hawks had Amonte (i think) , Roenick, Chelios, Belfour. not sure bout the others, but they were quite decent.

The Blackhawks made the playoffs for 16 or 17 straight seasons. They were in the Stanley Cup Finals in 1992 (swept by Pittsburgh) and they made the western conference finals in 95 and lost to the wings 4 games to 1, all 4 of Detroit's wins were by one goal. That 95 team had Cheilos, Amonte, Belfour, Bernie Nichols (who still had some left in the tank at the time) Joe Murphy (same) Keith Carney, and Bob Probert. Jeremy Roenick was on the team but he missed most of 95 after Darien Hatchetman Hatcher destroyed his knee in a game (I think that was the knee year, but it may have been the jaw year, I don't remember.)

ESPN recently named the Blackhawks the worst franchise in sports and I couldn't agree more. They simply refuse to spend money, and they now average just over 10,000 people a night. This from a franchise that used to sell out every single home game.

The ownership here is so spiteful; the home games aren't even televised.

As if all that wasn't enough to make hawk fans puke, right when that team was coming together in 1992, their coach was Mike Keenan. He was fired because he wanted control of personal. What did he want to do?

He was going to trade Ed Balfour for Joe Sakic, and put his faith in his backup goaltender.......
