CHICAGO - Of all the big games the current crop of Chicago Blackhawks have played and had success in, might Monday night be the biggest of them all?
And the list of reasons is a long one as the Hawks look to close out the Tampa Bay Lightning in Game 6 of the Stanley Cup final.
For starters, they will be attempting to cement the legacy of a modern-day NHL dynasty with a third Cup in the past six seasons, a concept thought to be unheard of in the league's salary cap era.
Then there is the idea of winning it all in Chicago for the first time since 1938, a notion that has the sports savvy city salivating at the prospect.
