As an original six franchise, the Chicago Blackhawks have a storied past and had elite level rosters along the way. Unfortunately, star players don’t always enjoy successful seasons.
Recency bias, with three Stanley Cup wins last decade alone, would suggest that the Chicago Blackhawks teams of the 2010s stand well above the rest. But the Blackhawks of the 1990s were packed with stars, too.
Throughout those years, Chicago had players like Jeremy Roenick, Ed Belfour, Steve Larmer, Denis Savard, Steve Thomas, Chirs Chelios, and Bernie Nicholls all producing at all-star levels.
