2015-2016 Chicago Blackhawks...

the Chicago Blackhawks are the defending Stanley Cup champions,and will be a playoff team,in 2015-2016,but besides that,they are an enigma... with Patrick Kane in legal limbo,are the Blackhawks like the Green Bay Packers in the NFL??? does one player make a big difference,as in the case of the Packers,who knows??? in the case of the Blackhawks,unless you have a player like Pittsburgh Penguins' Sidney Crosby, the answer is no... the Blackhawks are a very good offensive team,and with Duncan Keith,on defense,they should be fine,even though,some pundits have said that Keith is not the same player,as in years past... they have many players from the 2010 Stanley Cup champions,who beat the Philadelphia Flyers in six games,for a good core of players... Corey Crawford does not get much respect outside of Chicago,but he is a very good goaltender... expect Kane to be punished,by the NHL,but after the legal process works itself out(if Kane gets in trouble with the law),but again,it is Chicago,you know,ha ha... expect a very good Stanley Cup defense from this team...
