Sports fans love their “what if” scenarios, and Chicago Blackhawks rooters have never been any exception. During the ongoing 2017-18 season, however, it seems a lot more of those “what ifs” are trending in the negative direction.
And that’s probably fair. The Blackhawks, outside Corey Crawford, haven’t looked real great of late. Maybe the biggest indicator of this is Artem Anisimov, who looked about ready to keel over two weeks ago, suddenly being the hot hand at forward.
So not all the “what ifs” surrounding the Blackhawks are fun to think about these days.
