[Paul Sullivan @PWSullivan]

Rocky Wirtz was the Chicago Blackhawks savior. “To say he revitalized the franchise probably doesn’t do him justice. You can say he saved it.” https://t.co/3KS1U4UQpM

One thing about Rocky Wirtz- he really did build an empire; one that not many thought was possible for the #Blackhawks. He helped transform them into a forever premiere NHL destination. Condolences to his son Danny & the rest of the Wirtz family.

Sending condolences to the Wirtz family and Blackhawks organization regarding the passing of Rocky Wirtz. Yes, his legacy will be forever tarnished, and rightfully so, but it is a legacy that includes 3 Stanley Cups and making a forgotten franchise relevant again.

Don’t have to agree with how it all went down the last couple years, but he’s still a human being and we’re all imperfect. I credit him for bringing hockey back to the city after his father had passed . He was committed to making the #blackhawks a power house. Never imagined I’d see one cup , we were blessed to see 3 . Rest easy Rocky

[Ben Pope @BenPopeCST]

Rocky Wirtz celebrated the Blackhawks’ draft lottery win on May 8 with a glass of wine at dinner.

Today’s news of his death comes incredibly suddenly. His legacy isn’t without faults, but this is a huge loss for the Blackhawks organization.
