The Blackhawks have played 5 more games. True... but the Hawks threads have picked up considerably in the past week. We had a 250 post lead or something and the Bulls caught up... now that more of us are watching and participating... ;) Also, the Winter Classic should help us out some. I post in both anyways, and don't see at as a competition, but more of an accomplishment. Speaking of the Winter Classic, with baseball and football already handled, Wrigley will play host to a third major sport. As last year's game was in a football stadium, I doubt they can claim the same. Does anyone know of any other venue to host three of NFL, NHL, MBA, and MLB? Isn't Wrigley the first MLB stadium to host an NHL game? Regardless... Wrigley is the smartest possible venue to ever host a Wings/Hawks game (or any O-6 teams).... what a great pull by McDonough.
