Blackhawks Parade and Rally-- Part 2: Even Tommy Hawk!!
A big question, who gets the Cup first? It would be the player with the most games played (and probably game time in a tie-breaker).
An interesting story about the first night of the NHL Lockout when some Hawk players were at the United Center to see the band Rush play. When Hawks owner Rocky Wirttz found out they were there, he asked them to leave. NHL players are not allowed at any NHL facility during a lockout.
Toews was holding the Stanley Cup in the first bus. The mayor of Chicago and state governor were also on buses.
Our governor, Pat Quinn, was also at the Orange Bowl in Miami for the NIU-FSU reception and game. Must be nice to be governor, but a little later, during the speeches, it wasn't so nice.
Mascot Tommy Hawk (get it?) was also in one of the 26 buses for the event.
It's Good to Be a Hawk Fan Right Now. --RoadDog
