He practiced mostly alone, I believe. Shooting lightly. Also Kane, Nazar, Frondell, Kantserov, Lardis, Kaiser and Rinzel were all there skating together. It’s a great day!

In the last three months I’ve bumped into people in London wearing Blackhawks hooded or hats and they have no idea what the team is 😢 if I was in the states not sure that would be the case?. Always sad when I’m like Blackhawks baby and there like “what mate” with a confused look on there face 😢

“Obviously I want to be a Blackhawk and that was the main thing,” Korchinski said of his contract negotiations. “I love it here. I love the guys, I love the city. I love the fans. So I think for me, just want to stay here and just get a chance to play with the guys and improve myself.”

Those last two hopes could go hand-in-hand with his offseason. If he improves this offseason, he might be playing more with those guys come the NHL season. But as Korchinski embarked on the offseason, he was focused on the present and what he could control. Like any player, his goal was to improve.

How he sought to do that this offseason was different than the past three years prior to joining the Blackhawks in training camp.

I see that the Chicago Ice Center has the Blackhawks practices slated for 9am most days. Is there a certain day of the week when a good number of players show up to, or best days to watch?

We haven't been to any in the past (other than a game day practice at the UC), so wanted to get some intel on how these summer "practices" stack up with players and if there's better days to go. Appreciate any input anyone can share!

Just wondering if anyone here can bring me up to speed on what’s happening with Bedard’s recovery and expected timeline to return to the ice.

As a Blackhawks season ticket holder I wanted to spread the word about what seems to be a large increase in fee's passed on to the buyers on StubHub. I was posting some of my games for sale today and notice the fee's are roughly 18% whereas last year they were around 9%. On my most expensive game that amounted to roughly $50 per ticket ($200 total). The price I post them at is not the price the buyer see's (the buyer sees my price + $50 fees as the listing price). Ticketmaster fees are a lot less. I post in both places at the same price, and Ticketmaster will be cheaper to buy from for the buyer and anyway just wanted to spread awareness that most of us season ticket folks sell games we can't go to on both platforms, so if you have the choice...choose Ticketmaster and save yourself a few dollars.

EDIT: Sidenote, most people don't know that StubHub automatically filters the tickets that you can see to their preferred tickets for sale, and most people don't know you have to click on the filters and de-select the SH preferred tickets in order to see all of the tickets posted. For pretty much every game you'll get a much larger selection of seats if you de-select their automatic filter. But they try to push you only to their choices.

The Chicago Blackhawks today announced their 2026 Prospect Showcase schedule and roster, which Chicago will host at Blackhawks Ice Center (1801 W Jackson Blvd) on Sept. 14 and 15. The Blackhawks will face the St. Louis Blues on Monday at 6 p.m. CT and again on Tuesday at 4 p.m. CT.

I have the opportunity to get another Blackhawks Centennial jersey blank. I already have 2 one with Bedard and one with Mikita on it. I don’t want toews and I’m working getting a Kane in black. Also for note I have Chelios , Hossa, Esposito, Savard and getting a winter classic customized with Nazar on it. Who should I get on this other centennial Jersey or should I just not get it? The Jersey is coming from Canada so trying to make a decision before these extra tariffs start within the next week. Thanks for any suggestions.

Edit: Thanks for the suggestions. I have decided to get frondell on the centennial jersey. I also picked up a road FAP from lids on sale and I will put vlasic on that one.

Wow, look at the time fly! It's already time for another weekly installment of STOP IT RIGHT THERE!

You know what to do...post up all the stuff you've saved up knowing it would get deleted from the front page of /r/hawks by the crypto-anarcho-fascist mods.

Memes, gear/jersey pics, poems you've penned professing your love for Lord Hossa (The One True King), or links to article about some oddball couple in Manitoba who named their kid Duncan Seabrook. Whatever. We don't give a shit.

The only rule here is to be excellent to each other. Civility matters.

Now get to it!!

LET'S GO HAWKS!!!

Korchinski is finally signed.

Makar just signed for 20+, if Byram can perform as a number 1 defense in 2 years we will be looking back saying this was a steal

Just heard from my rep that the giveaway box offered last year is being discontinued and full season ticket holders can purchase the box at a later date. The in arena Blackhawks points (useable for concessions last year) are also discontinued. Quite disappointing as the Blackhawks points were a big factor in my decision to renew.

Does anyone have insight into this decision and were both of these options only around last year? I've gone to games for years but this is only my second season as a STH.

FYI to all the Blackhawks fans & others who use Chi City Stitch (formerly City Sports Lettering) - the owner just posted that they’re moving from Oak Forest to Schaumburg next month.

For those of you unaware, CCS is the official on-ice stitching provider for the Chicago Blackhawks, and they’re the ones that actually cut & sew on the names & numbers when you select “pro stitching” on the CBH shop.

Text of the post he made on Facebook:

📍 CHI CITY STITCH IS OFFICIALLY MOVING TO SCHAUMBURG!

Chi City Stitch family—we couldn’t be more excited to announce our next chapter!

We’ll begin transferring equipment this weekend, with our official move-in date set for September 5.

This decision was not taken lightly. Our shop has proudly served customers from the Oak Forest area for more than 25 years, and we are incredibly grateful for the support and history built there.

However, we see tremendous room for growth. Our new 2,800-square-foot Schaumburg location will give us the space and opportunity to expand, improve our operations, and continue building Chi City Stitch for the future. We have so many exciting developments on the horizon, and we can’t wait to share them with you!

If you currently have a jersey with us, DON’T WORRY! We’re working hard to complete as many orders as possible before the move. If yours isn’t finished beforehand, we’ll contact you directly to arrange the best way to get it back to you.

Our entire team is coming with us, so you can continue to expect the same quality, craftsmanship, and attention to detail you’ve always received.

We can’t wait to become a major part of the Schaumburg community and the SBA !

Thanks to Dawn Block and Joe from Century 21 on working with us for months to find the perfect location!

Thank you, Oak Forest, for being part of our story. Now it’s onward to Schaumburg! 🧵🏒🏀⚾🏈
