Column: Blackhawks hope to win Stanley Cup this season

The Blackhawks have been nothing short of amazing this season.

Fans have cheered on the Blackhawks as they defeated the roughest teams, such as the No. 1 seed San Jose Sharks.

Canadian Patrick Sharp became an asset to the team this season as he teamed up with fellow hawks like Patrick Kane and Marian Hossa.

The crowd goes wild when each of these three men score, and it will only get better during the finals.

The Blackhawks haven’t won the Stanley Cup since 1959, and it’s about time they win it again.

Critics speculate that the Blackhawks will win due to how well they have played this season.

While they have lsot their fair share of games, the Blackhawks usually don’t take hockey as a light sport. They are in it to win it.

Their opponent, the Philadelphia Flyers, may be an easy target for the Blackhawks.

The Flyers have lost many of their games as opposed to their wins, and this may give hte Blackhawks a fighting chance at the cup.

If we were to go off their wins this month, then the Blackhawks and Flyers would already be in overtime.

The Hawks would be likely win, though, because the Flyers have double the losses.

But as always, it also depends on how well the Blackhawks will work as a team.

Each time the Blackhawks have scored against San Jose, the crowds have gone wild.

They have booed San Jose each time they atacked a Blackhawk with their hockey stick.

THis type of poor athleticism only ruins the sport and loses interest.

I will always be a fan of the Blackhawks whether htey bring home the Stanley Cup or lose to the Flyers.

THe Hawks have become too great of a team.

I’ve seen every one of their games and cheered them on.

They are deserving of the Stanley Cup and they will bring it home.
