The Chicago Blackhawks only took 6 games to sent the Vancouver Canucks home for the rest of the year. The Blackhawks had to come from behind 3 different times in this game to keep it close enough to finish off the Canucks 7-5 tonight. So now they wait for the winner of Detriot Red Wings and Anaheim Ducks. The Red Wings are currently up 3-2 in that series.
It doesn’t seem like it was too long ago that Chicago was one of the worst teams in the league. I think I even remember reading that junior hockey teams in Chicago were drawing more fans than the Blackhawks were. Going from that to conference finals is a pretty big turn around.
What is the closest to worst to first that your team has done recently. Ok – I know the Blackhawks haven’t won anything yet, but it is still an impressive change in a couple years time.
