Review: Paramount Room
For the first time in a long while, Chicago is seeing success from both the Chicago Blackhawks (NHL) and the Chicago Wolves (AHL). The Wolves are off to a 13-1-1 start, giving them the best winning percentage in the league--which should come as no surprise to their faithful fans.
On the other hand, it is a surprise that after a quarter of the season, the Blackhawks aren't breaking their fans' hearts. The Hawks have skated to an 11-8-1 start, which puts them in second place, behind the Detroit Red Wings, a team they have owned thus far this season. On Saturday, the Blackhawks snagged their fourth consecutive win against the Red Wings this season, something they last did during the 1985-86 season.
Unfortunately, the Blackhawks will be without one of the stars of Saturday's game. Winger Rene Bourque will be out for the next month or so after he injured his thumb blocking a shot on Saturday. Bourque scored not one but two short-handed goals in the game, his second and third for the season.
The team continues their six-game road run with a Thanksgiving evening game against the Flames then have road games on Saturday (Oilers) and Sunday (Canucks) before returning to the United Center on Wednesday, November 28 to host the Lightning.

Does anyone see a paralell to the Hawks success and one less Wirtz? Seriously, Hawk fans have been held hostage here for the better part of 30 years (that's all I can remember). Glad to see that the great sport of hockey is back in Chicago, hope it stays.
