no. just its frowned upon to have an indian chief running around scaring kids
- Gramps28

with the Indians now named the Guardians, any worries that the Blackhawks would need to change their name as well, or is that one acceptable?

Told you he played C

In the past but not recently. Drouin

I am sure he played more C than Drouin

not a very good solution to put a guy at C who hasn't played that position regularly for years, even if he played more than Drouin

blackhawk is fine. how is that demeaning? the logo has never been a cartoon and there was an actual chief black hawk in this area

maybe we shouldn't mention native americans were here at all. they have/had a close relationship with the local tribal leaders for years. Tho, i believe some of them have changed.


but because 4 people complain loudly...who knows.

its far different than calling them indians/redskins to me. so, who the (frank) knows

I won’t be surprised if that’s what MB and DD decide to do

I don't find it demeaning at all, and I didn't find Indians was demeaning either. I thought they could give some sort of "grandfther clause" to the latter, but then again I'm not a native american so who am I to say.

I do hope they don't ever touch the hawks' name or logo, it's an original 6 team with a beautiful jersey and it would be a shame if they were forced to change it in the name of wokeness...

Lol this is what rds saids, unless that is (frank)ed up

Perreault, un ailier gauche pouvant également jouer au centre, a accepté une offre d'un an et empochera un salaire de 950 000 $ lors de la sa saison 2021-2022.

- habs88888

key word is "pouvant jouer au centre" lol...not arguing that he can't, but as I said he hasn't played that position on a regular basis recently, so why would they consider this as a serious option

- mr.peanut

yes. the unit the original owner was in. named after, you guessed it, Black Hawk, a Sauk chief from this area

Capable of playing centre, they certainly won’t put that for anyone lol

Having said that the Atlantic division is wide open next year.

TB is a lock for playoffs, prolly BOS as well

TOR, MTL, FLA will be battling for 3rd and OTT will be breathing down our necks

if anything, it would be the logo and not the name. and the original logo is a pretty fair likeness of the chief.

yeah and it isn't cartoonish or caricatural, unlike the Cataractes de Shawinigan logo



I don't find it necessarily offensive but I could see this one being canceled at some point lol
