Chicago took game 1 of the Stanley Cup Final 2-1, keeping the score close and the fans in it for all 60 minutes. I hope they all go like this (especially since I'm not a stakeholder). It also came up that the Penguins are for sale, maybe? I ssumed they had gone bankrupt yet again, but it could be the owners just want out or a partner to help absorb all of the losses having an NHL team in the Mecca of Hockey brings about. Speaking of did you know that the Chicago Blackhawks haven't turned a profit yet under new owner Rocky Wirtz? That's crazy, I mean if the post-cap dynasty Blackhawks can't do it, why bother?
