Chicago Blackhawks Tickets

The Chicago Blackhawks continue to dominate as the 2013 season rolls on, which, considering the majority of the early schedule is comprised of road games, is excellent news. Soon, though, fans will be demanding the hockey team make its way back to the United Center so they can use Chicago Blackhawks tickets to cheer on a victory from the seats. Luckily the back half of the schedule will give those fans plenty of opportunities to wear out those vocal chords and pound on the glass.

Coach Joel Quenneville enjoys mixing and matching the front two lines of forwards, keeping the opposition guessing until the puck first hits the ice. Wing Patrick Kane is a dangerous man with the puck, equally likely to find the back of the net as to set up a teammate. He actually leads the Blackhawks in assists. The second-most dangerous man in Chicago is Jonathan Toews, who is a center in much the same vein as Kane. Kane and Toews often play together on the first line. Patrick Sharp and Marian Hossa are the next two big names on the roster and are typically the men switching lines. Sharp is an assist man and Hossa is another player with stats equally impressive a scorer as a passer.

The blue line has a couple of stars of its own in Duncan Keith and Brent Seabrook. These two-way players keep the offense moving and the puck out of the back zone. This makes the first line as dangerous as any in the NHL.

Goalie Corey Crawford has been a Top 5 netminder so far in 2013. Part of it is his terrific glove hand and the other part is the amount of time spent attacking the other end. Ray Emery is a backup who is playing like a starter. The Blackhawks switch out these two with great regularity, at a 2-1 ratio to this point. These guys are going to be fresh and at the top of their game in time for the postseason.

At this time it appears a certainty the club is going to be playing in the Stanley Cup playoffs. They are the favorite to win the whole thing at this time too. That would be just the fifth Stanley Cup in the history of the franchise.
