Nothing is more frustrating than being a Bears fan on Sunday

[Chicago Blackhawks @NHLBlackhawks]

a new letter on the chest, a new chapter ahead ❤️

introducing the 37th 𝐂𝐚𝐩𝐭𝐚𝐢𝐧 of the Chicago Blackhawks, 𝐂onnor Bedard!

[Michael Folkard @derekfolkard]

@RizNHL Give me one good reason why he wouldn’t offer sheet Robertson on July 1

[Michael Folkard @derekfolkard]

@OviClapBomb @FriedgeHNIC GOVE IT TO ME

[Michael Folkard @derekfolkard]

@BarstoolChief Give me Bo Byram and let’s rock. Let’s be young, fun, and competitive and see where we are at in a year.

[Michael Folkard @derekfolkard]

@BarstoolChief thoughts on the Hawks packaging Mikheyev and their second round picks to get another pick in the first round?

[Michael Folkard @derekfolkard]

@CHGO_Blackhawks @jayzawaski @GregBoysen Easy to say that this trade has aged poorly given the resume that Hagel has built for himself since being traded to TBL. Only time will tell with this trade. Moore and Boisvert have higher ceilings given where they were taken in the draft…maybe they end up better than Hagel

[Michael Folkard @derekfolkard]

@OviClapBomb I need Lardis to switch his jersey number to 67. Frank and Connor would be so happy

[Michael Folkard @derekfolkard]

@BenPopeCST Love how the Hawks are using the weak side D in transition and on OZ entries. D are also active, jumping up in the rush and extending plays at the blue line. Fun hockey to watch this afternoon.

[Michael Folkard @derekfolkard]

@BenPopeCST Lack of or slow to support pucks on PP - CGY being hyper-aggressive on every 50/50 puck and working in tandem to get stalls

[Michael Folkard @derekfolkard]

@SnarkMessier Don’t disrespect Ryan Greene like that - heck of a play by #20 in red

[Michael Folkard @derekfolkard]

@BenPopeCST Bertuzzi has had 2 egregious turnovers this period

[Michael Folkard @derekfolkard]

@BlackhawksFocus Hawks are competitive this year and are fun to watch. Matched Colorado’s speed tonight step for step.

[Michael Folkard @derekfolkard]

@Sportsnet I want my money back now

[Michael Folkard @derekfolkard]

We pay how much for Sportsnet and it crashes during the World Series??? This is a joke. I want my money back @Sportsnet

[Michael Folkard @derekfolkard]

@BenPopeCST One more because I’m on one today and I don’t know if anyone is reading these but I’m having fun. IMO Stan Bowman’s late round selections were better than his top picks. Mind you, for the majority of his tenure he was drafting outside the top 10 picks.

[Michael Folkard @derekfolkard]

@BenPopeCST Great article. That’s another one of Stan Bowman’s picks that the Blackhawks have moved on from in the Davidson era.

[Michael Folkard @derekfolkard]

@BenPopeCST And Landon Slaggert (79th) and Drew Commesso (54th).

[Michael Folkard @derekfolkard]

@BenPopeCST For irrelevant context: Wyatt Kaiser was taken in the same draft as Reichel. 17th and 81st overall respectively.
