Blackhawks Deny Rumors Of Locker-Room Strife
It's been a very weird week for the Blackhawks, which kicked off with a broken collarbone for Patrick Kane that will see their leading scorer out through May, closed with a pair of significant "we're going for it" trades, and in between saw some thinly sourced rumors take on a life of their own. It'...

Bulls GM Says Derrick Rose Will Be Back In Time For The Playoffs

Teuvo!
Alright, so maybe it's unrealistic to expect Blackhawks prospect Teuvo Teravainen to fill the skates and the scoresheets of the injured Patrick Kane. But the heralded 20-year-old, in his return to the big club, scored on his very first shift. And it was nasty....
Here Are Some Cool Derrick Rose Dunks
Given today's news and the way he was playing this season, it's kind of hard to believe that this version of Derrick Rose ever existed at all, let alone just four seasons ago. That third dunk remains one of the most absurd things I've ever seen in a basketball game....
Patrick Kane Injured, Could Be Out A Long While
If you're a Chicago sports fan, you are not reading this, because there's no way you're getting out of bed today.

Patrick Kane Turns Marc-Andre Fleury Into A Pile Of Limbs In Shootout
Fine, shootouts are bad at determining the outcomes of games, but let's shelf that argument for another time and instead watch Patrick Kane punk Marc-Andre Fleury with the same effort required to put together a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. Actually, you probably exert more effort making a peanu...
The Blackhawks Somehow Managed To Not Score Here
Major weirdness in the closing seconds of overtime in what would turn out a 3-2 shootout win for the Coyotes in Chicago, as the Blackhawks had two sterling chances—one of which I'm still not convinced wasn't in—get waved off, one of them even surviving a video review....

Cool 1930s Home Video Shows A Day Out At Wrigley Field
This is a pretty cool home video of a bunch of guys sitting around in fedoras and smoking cigars while watching a Cubs game at Wrigley Field, shot in either 1937 or 1938.

David Blatt Plunked By Errant Pass
Cleveland handily dispatched Chicago tonight for their third straight win, continuing to right the ship after going 1-7 with that LeBron James fellow out injured. But while the heat on coach David Blatt's seat has somewhat dissipated—and he's not been moved around by James in a few nights—his life i...
