Good question I thought JJ has a 2006 date. So was there another hawk blogger 1st or they didn't have one back then?

I believe

Al

was the first Hawks blogger on this site.

I have a vague recollection of reading that Al was the blogger at some point back in the day, but I'm not certain about that.

Edit - what Paulish said...

Saw someone with an Olesz jersey last Friday at the Pigs game. Not the name/number T-shirt, not a replica jersey, but the full on authentic, $250+ Real deal Rusty Olesz jersey.

If it was a regular team sweater, then it was probably won in a raffle.

Oh Q !

Thanks to both u and mohel. Al makes sense. Still wish we could go back almost 10 years and see this place. I'm sure it had nowhere near 1,000 posts a topic

Maybe on Playoff EVE jj would grace us with a couple of links from the past . Who knows ?

No, just means the ice might be better which benefits Chicago.

Ah, well that's nice.
So, no naked mole rat singing the night before = better ice

Chris Kuc...always showing great insight on all things blackhawks...instead of asking Q why he chose Zus and Vsteeg over Morin and Regin we are spoon-fed playoff mullet stories.
- UnnamedSource

He's a moron. Horrible beat guy....just another knee pad advocate for McDonough.

I would think so, since they won't have to cover the ice for the stage and the building will be empty today, so the temp won't get as warm either.

If you go digging around in the underpinnings of the site (My HockeyBuzz, I think), I remember finding some old user-stories from 2007 and 2008.

I found those when I first joined though, perhaps the site has improved and archived that old clutter by now.

Saw a post saying they weren't convinced Toews was the right pick and they didn't expect much going into the 07-08 season. Good thing whoever that was ended up being wrong, eh?

What do you think of Mark Lazerus, Rainman?

Thanks. Should be interesting. I think I may have been rooting for Kessel. I'm glad I was wrong, too.

Mashinter, sounds like something that happens during Passover.

Red font.

What do you think of Mark Lazerus, Rainman?
- prd797

I have no issues with him. Tracey Myers at least gets a little critical and sarcastic on twitter. This is where I miss Sassone. Very hard to get SOLID Hawks coverage and questioning organizational decisions when all the beat guys are in the team's back pocket.

I mean come on......The tribune ran a full page spread on Teuvo who played all of how many games? That's what am I talking about....McDonough worked for the cubs, owned by the tribune, tight with WGN...so are we surprised that the tribune kisses the organization's @ss each and every chance?

Cheers Eli

I get enough abuse. And not the fun kind.
Also, apparently he revealed himself in the vid on the main page.

That Julie Robynheimer is pretty easy on the eyes. I didnt need more than a minute or so of that stupid video though before i got bored.

I'm in.....and i'll give you all a preview...I picked a certain Chicago team to go all the way....so much for the pessimism.....

Cheapest round 1 seats at the UC from Ticketmaster are $137 face....

It was one of the many specialty sweaters
