Is it my imagination, but didn't the hockey season just end a few months ago? It seems like yesterday that the Carolina Hurricanes captured the Stanley Cup in a thrilling series against the Edmonton Oilers.
Here it is September, a mere three months later, and pre-season hockey has already begun. It’s hard to fathom a nine-month season in any sport, yet a new hockey season is just around the corner.
Locally, the Chicago Blackhawks are playing well, posting a 6-1 pre-season record with one more pre-season game to go. Not bad for a team that will require fans to carry a score card to find out who is playing each position. Supposedly, Hawks management improved the team in the off-season, but I’ll believe it when I see it.
The Hawks begin the regular season October 5th at the Predators.
