To all those Blackhawks fans out there worried about the salary cap and the future of this dynamic team, chairman Rocky Wirtz had some advice on the day the club signed not one, not two, but three franchise cornerstones in Duncan Keith, Jonathan Toews and Patrick Kane to long-term contract extensions. chicago blackhawks jersey
The gist of Wirtz’s message? Sit back, relax and enjoy the ride the rest of this season and worry about next year when it’s time. “What the fans have to realize is if you have the nucleus, you can fill in,” Wirtz said Thursday. “But what would happen if we hadn’t had this nucleus and let these three gentlemen go to another team? Then they’d (fans) really be nervous. “We’re lucky to have players that want to play for us. Any other team in this league would have taken these players off our hands. They would have no problem doing that.” The Hawks certainly have what they believe is their core locked up now for at least the next two years and well beyond in some cases in Keith, Toews, Kane, Marian Hossa, Cristobal Huet, Brian Campbell and Kris Versteeg.

General manager Stan Bowman knows he has some tough decisions ahead after the season, but there’s a Stanley Cup to be won first, and the Hawks would like to think they have a great shot at getting it. “People fall in love with this team and we do, too, but this is not a phenomenon that just the Blackhawks face,” Bowman said. “We’re playing under the same rules as Pittsburgh, Detroit and Washington, so when you say we’re going to have tough decisions this summer, that’s correct, but last summer we saw teams let players go. “I’m sure they weren’t thrilled about it, but those are the rules and we’re all playing under this system. “Decisions have to be made and we’ll make the right ones at the right time, but we don’t need to get ahead of ourselves now.” These definitely are not Rocky Wirtz’s father’s Blackhawks, and the son knows it. chicago blackhawks for menIn signing Keith for 13 years at $72 million and Toews and Kane for five years at $31.5 million each on the heels of Hossa’s 12-year, $62.8 million deal, Wirtz admitted they are the kind of bold moves that wouldn’t have happened in the past when Bill Wirtz, his father, was the boss. “I don’t know if the Hawks would have made a commitment to players in the past, and I think it’s important to do that,” Wirtz said. “If you looked at where we came from two years ago, if I said we’d be standing here in the Stadium Club talking about signing two players for five years and another for 13, you’re thinking I’m drinking all the whiskey we sell, or smoking some. “But what it’s really been is if the fans didn’t show up, we couldn’t do it. If we didn’t have the outpouring, the 14,000-plus season-ticket holders, if we didn’t have standing room being sold every night, if we didn’t have this real excitement, we couldn’t do it. “With that commitment it certainly made the decision easy for us.” Bowman said that despite numerous reports claiming the Hawks needed to clear “tagging room” salary-cap space for next season, the numbers for Keith, Toews and Kane fit into the NHL’s complex formula. That doesn’t mean making it work was easy. Bowman and assistant GM Kevin Cheveldayoff even flew to Toronto to meet with the league’s cap people in order to get the contracts approved. “There is a league formula and we spent days going over this with the league making sure we understood how they computed it and making sure that everything would work, and it did,” Bowman said. “This today is not impacting the current team at all. We can play with this team for the rest of the year, and we may choose to do that. We’ll evaluate things as they come and if we find a way to do something that would help us we’ll go down that road, but we may not.” Keith’s contract will take him to the age of 39. “It’s great knowing I’m going to be a Blackhawk for the rest of my career,” Keith said. Toews and Kane will be unrestricted free agents when their deals end following the 2014-15 season. “I can’t envision playing anywhere else,” Kane said. “To be blessed to be in this city, I can’t think of any better place to be drafted to when I was 18 years old,” Toews said. “There’s not a better place to be as far as the fans go, the way we’re treated in this city and the atmosphere we get to play in every day is incredible.Men’s Detroit Red Wings “To me, it’s not about the business side and all that stuff. I’m just happy to know I’m going to be part of this organization for a while longer and hopefully a lot longer after that.”

The Montreal Canadiens were chided by some critics for their seemingly endless celebration of their centennial, but when you’ve got the richest history of all NHL teams and a legacy that stretches back before the birth of the league itself, there’s a lot to celebrate.Pittsburgh Penguin for men
The Habs history certainly has been impressive with 24 Stanley Cup championships and 45 players in the Hockey Hall of Fame but since winning their last Stanley Cup in 1993, the subsequent seasons have not been good ones for this proud franchise. From 1993 to 2009, the Canadiens made the playoffs only nine times and made it past the first round five times. Little wonder they put so much hype upon their glory years.Most Canadiens fans believe the Habs’ decline started with the 1995 trade of goaltending great Patrick Roy to the Colorado Avalanche, but it actually goes back into the early 1990s.Their draft and trade record over the past 20 years reveals poor decisions by a series of general managers resulting in over 15 years of mediocrity. From Serge Savard to Rejean Houle to Andre Savard to current general manager Bob Gainey, the Canadiens have not drafted well and for the most part failed to acquire quality talent via trades or free agency. Savard did build two Stanley Cup champions teams, in part because from 1984 to 1987 he selected a superstar in Roy plus players like Eric Desjardins, Mathieu Schneider, John LeClair, Stephane Richer, Petr Svoboda and Lyle Odelein, who formed the core of a solid Canadiens team in the late ’80s and early ’90s. But from 1988 to 1995, Savard never achieved the same level of success at the draft table as in his earlier seasons, which set in motion the Habs’ inevitable decline. He was also responsible for two of the most lopsided deals in NHL history. The first was dealing away superstar defenseman Chris Chelios to Chicago in 1990 for fading scorer Denis Savard, the other was packaging LeClair and Desjardins to Philadelphia in 1995 for forward Mark Recchi.Those trades significantly improved the Blackhawks and Flyers respectively but did little to help the Canadiens.Houle took over for Savard as GM in 1995 and was forced to trade Roy following his falling out with then-head coach Mario Tremblay. The return of Jocelyn Thibault, Martin Rucinsky and Andrei Kovalenko was another blunder for Montreal while Roy went on to further pad his Hall of Fame resume with the Colorado Avalanche.cheap Pittsburgh Penguins The Canadiens were heading into decline prior to the Roy trade but that move accelerated the process.Other notable players dealt away by Houle, including Schneider, Pierre Turgeon, Craig Conroy and Darcy Tucker, also went on to better things with new teams while Montreal got little in return. Houle’s draft record — save for 1998 when he selected Andrei Markov, Mike Ribeiro, Michael Ryder and Francois Beauchemin (the latter three, of course, no longer with the Canadiens) — is considered among the worst in team history.Houle was — and still is — a nice guy who did his best but was ultimately ill-suited for the role of general manager.NHL News Flyers’ Carcillo suspended 4 gamesFlyers replace coach with LavioletteNHL to hold 2010 draft in L.A. Photos:Evolution of the goalie maskBest goalie masks todayHot hockey mamasAndre Savard (no relation to Serge) took over from Houle midway through 2000-01 and, after stepping aside as GM in 2003 for Gainey, had a hand in the Canadiens draft selections until 2006.The club spent most of this decade rebuilding through the draft and in recent years publications and Web sites that track young hockey prospects consistently ranked the Canadiens depth in promising talent among the top five or 10 teams in the league. Unfortunately, the reality is few notable players during this decade have come through their system and none could be considered franchise players. Mike Komisarek, Tomas Plekanec, Mark Streit, Carey Price and Andrei Kostitsyn are the few notables selected since 2001 thus far to go on to NHL careers with the Habs.Price is still trying to establish himself as a starting goalie, Plekanec is a solid second-line center who could depart next summer via free agency and Kostitsyn’s performance since a promising 53-point effort in 2007-08 has sharply declined. Komisarek and Streit were lost to free agency.Men’s Chicago Blackhawks This season, the Habs’ best players came from other teams via unrestricted free agency last summer and likely because they were among the few teams willing to spend the big bucks to land them.In previous years, the top free-agent talent shunned Montreal for a variety of reasons, but the biggest factor was the fish bowl existence of a Canadien as fans and media seemingly watch their every move on and off the ice. It’s been almost impossible in this decade for the Canadiens to land quality players via trades, partly because of the salary cap but also because they’ve had little to offer up in return. Great management was why the Canadiens for much of their 100 years consistently had great teams. But going on 17 years since the last Stanley Cup parade in Montreal, it’s apparent their management over that time has been anything but great. Until the Canadiens resolve this problem, they’ll remain mired in mediocrity and wallowing in past glory.

In acquiring left winger Jiri Tlusty from the Toronto Maple Leafs, the Carolina Hurricanes essentially threw in the towel on a player they drafted just more than five months ago — center Philippe Paradis, who went the other way in the trade.Men’s Detroit Wings
I understand you have to give up one asset to get another, but five months? That doesn’t seem like a long time to evaluate the long-term impact a player can have on your franchise.Read more at… Hands off NHL award history Time to update award names For profiles, news and views from the hockey world, check out The Hockey News.At 6-foot-2, 205 pounds, Paradis is projected to be a power forward and has already demonstrated in his junior career with the Quebec League’s Shawinigan Cataractes he’s willing to go to the net and pay the price physically for his points. But as with many players of his ilk, it will take several years for him to get the necessary strength and explosiveness to be effective at the NHL level. The weight room is going to be Philippe’s best buddy.Tlusty has already played in the NHL with the Leafs, but didn’t have the presence or results to stay up last year. He was an offensive machine for the American League’s Toronto Marlies last season, but seemed to be in the Jason Krog/Brett Sterling category; great in the ‘A,’ not in the NHL.Perhaps a change of scenery will buttress Tlusty’s success, but in terms of upside, Paradis is ahead right now because he’s younger than Tlusty and hasn’t already failed at cracking an NHL lineup on a consistent basis.Giving up top draft picks in trades has become relatively common lately and you can feel the collective collars of the team’s fans tighten when the names of those prospects are dropped. The Hurricanes are hoping a change of scenery does Jiri Tlusty well. (Dave Reginek / Getty Images) Ryan McDonagh. Eric Tangradi. Tuukka Rask. All were traded two years or less after being drafted. None of the returns for these prospects would denote a “steal” for the team that jettisoned the youngsters.Tangradi, who was on fire with the Ontario League’s Belleville Bulls when he was traded, went to Pittsburgh alongside Chris Kunitz for Ryan Whitney, who became an Anaheim Duck in the process. Kunitz was nearly a point-per-game player for the rest of the regular season for the Pens and helped them win the Stanley Cup. Whitney’s a great young defenseman, but I’m sure Pittsburgh’s not sweating the deal right now, especially since Tangradi is only a year or two away from the NHL.Another Ducks pick gone via trade is center Eric O’Dell, who was sent to Atlanta at the trade deadline a year after he was drafted for Erik Christensen, who was waived by Anaheim earlier this season.Detroit Red Wings for menMcDonagh, a Montreal Canadiens first-rounder in 2007 whose inclusion in the Scott Gomez trade immediately caused indigestion for Habs fans, is another example of a player gone too soon. A defenseman who plays a balanced game, the University of Wisconsin junior is on pace for his best offensive totals yet and it cannot be said either team won that deal. Both the Habs and Rangers are struggling, with Gomez posting the worst offensive totals of his career and Chris Higgins (who went to New York) doing the same on Broadway. But at least the Rangers can pin future hopes on McDonagh.Rask was infamously dealt by the Maple Leafs for fellow goaltender Andrew Raycroft, whose tenure in Toronto was an overall disaster, even if he technically holds the team record for wins in a season (playing 72 games certainly helps, as does the introduction of shootout victories).So why give up so early, given the history? I can understand giving up draft slots in exchange for players; the other team will likely choose a completely different player, so you’re not forever married to one particular name. But someone in the organization saw something in these young men and they weren’t wrong when they saw it. A little bit of patience would help enormously.In fact, Carolina has precedent for this when it traded Jack Johnson away when the defenseman didn’t want to leave the University of Michigan early. Johnson may not be the third-best player taken in the 2005 draft (Anze Kopitar and Paul Stastny would follow Sid the Kid), but he’s still a regular NHLer with high upside.I guess history does repeat itself after all.Ryan Kennedy is a writer and copy editor for The Hockey News magazine, the co-author of the book, Hockey’s Young Guns, and a regular contributor to THN.com.Men’s Boston Bruins His blog appears Mondays and Wednesdays.

It’s official; you can now safely watch Minnesota Wild games with your wits intact.With the new tandem of GM Chuck Fletcher and coach Todd Richards promising a whole new, less boring version of the sport in the State of Hockey, this was expected a little bit earlier in the season, but it’s understandable the players needed some time to actually buy into the new system.Read more at…Boston Bruins Jerseys
 Hands off NHL award history Time to update award names For profiles, news and views from the hockey world, check out The Hockey News.Perhaps that’s why it shouldn’t be surprising some of the key Wild players in the team’s recent five-game win streak are relatively new to the organization.We all know the Minnesota teams of the past were defense focused, but players such as Kyle Brodziak and Guillaume Latendresse grew their games in the Edmonton and Montreal systems, respectively, so they don’t have that baggage. Hence, Brodziak and Latendresse were quite effective against Anaheim on Friday, banging and crashing away, forechecking deep in the Ducks zone (sometimes both at the same time — it’s a miracle!).Andrew Ebbett has been another sparkplug since coming over to the Wild. Picked up on waivers from Chicago just a couple weeks ago, the speedy center has made an immediate impact in the Twin Cities, scoring three goals in six games while only playing third-line minutes. Again, Ebbett cut his teeth elsewhere, spending most of his career in the Anaheim system before catching on with the Blackhawks this season. The undersized pivot proved last year he could bring the offense, gelling with Ducks star Teemu Selanne on a potent second line late in the season. Men’s Calgary FlamesThe fact neither Anaheim nor Chicago had space for him this year has been a boon for Minnesota so far and his type of game is the one they want to be playing.Early on in the 2009-10 campaign, the Wild clearly struggled with its identity, leading to the team’s horrible 3-9-0 start. References to the culture change were everywhere in the Minnesota newspapers and I got the sense veterans were still “recovering” from the yoke they had been under while playing Lemaire hockey (and this isn’t an indictment of Lemaire — New Jersey has shown how to execute his master plan and the Devils’ 19-7-1 record despite a raft of key injuries is proof). The Minnesota Wild have played much more exciting hockey this season. (Bruce Kluckhohn / Getty Images) Now, the heavy veil has been lifted. One of the first to buy in was center Eric Belanger, who had seven points in his first five games this year and is still on pace for career offensive totals. Mikko Koivu and Andrew Brunette soon followed.Ironically enough, the offseason seemed to indicate the offense would run through Czech mates Martin Havlat and Petr Sykora, but injuries have devastated that concept. Nevertheless, it’s all for the best. The old Minnesota Wild relied too heavily on Slovak buddies Marian Gaborik and Pavol Demitra and look where that got the team.Now, Havlat does need to get on track, no doubt about that — his 11 points and minus-17 rating through 22 games simply won’t do — but with three points in his past three games he seems to be adjusting to his new team.With solid goaltending and the troops done second-guessing what they should be doing on the ice strategy-wise, the Wild are back on course.Calgary Flames Jersey A playoff berth remains to be seen, but at least the team is now confident in how it wants to achieve that goal.Ryan Kennedy is a writer and copy editor for The Hockey News magazine, the co-author of the book, Hockey’s Young Guns, and a regular contributor to THN.com.
