Do Ducks fans exist Max? I do no think they do.



Around the Network

my sister is in the LA area and one time when I was visiting I took my nephew to a Ducks game because they were playing the red wings and I just missed the Blackhawks...

To answer your question, no Ducks fans barely exist. They always have ticket deals to try to get more revenue on ticket sales because they have a hard time selling... I think they had like buy 3 games for half the price and get a drink and hot dog each game when I bought the tickets. (they still have the deal)

The 3 Stars Pack gives you three great games and includes a hot dog and drink voucher for each game. For $66... The same level tickets at United Center would be $105 without the $10 per game for the food.



So, trade deadline... what do you think they Blackhawks are going to do?

They don't need to do anything really. Maybe if there is an injury in the line up they could pick someone like Iginla or Boyle up but they are overall a solid line up.

They could use some depth at center. Particularly a strong faceoff guy. Bolland and Kruger are both brutal in the faceoff circle. Other than that they don't really have any glaring weaknesses.

You both said what I was pretty much thinking. However... I was trying to use it as a conversation starter for your teams also

Chicago is my team =) My dad is a die-hard Blackhawks fan, and like any good father he had me brainwashed by the time I was 4 yeasr old!

I've been following them religiously ever since Roenick and Belfour burst onto the scene back in 1990 or 91. I was so heartbroken when they got swept by the Penguins.

He's my favourite goalie of all time. Such a great goalie, and such a vicious streak! I despise the Maple Leafs, but I even loved Belfour when he went to Toronto. I remember one game in particular where he made 75 saves in a triple OT game in Toronto and they still lost. Felt so bad for him lol. Fucking Maple Leafs.



I love how suddenly there are more Blackhawk fans than home team fans in most western arenas.
