There will be no postseason for the Chicago Blackhawks. Not even a little bit like last year, but that doesn’t mean the final games won’t matter. As a fan, it’s hard to watch, but whether or not the team wins isn’t the issue. In fact, the losses will benefit the team in the long run.
“Sacrilege!” You might be thinking as the team drops game after game, but it’s true. After the team’s 6-3 loss to Carolina, the Chicago Blackhawks are firmly in control of 21st place in the league.
