Through two periods of the NHL Winter Classic, the Blackhawks’ on-ice product couldn’t be much worse. Wrigley Field put on a show, with an impressive visual experience, superstar performers, Hall of Fame appearances and everything in between, but trailing 5-1 after two periods, Chicago’s skating hasn’t matched the event.
While the on-ice product has been brutal to watch, Blackhawks fans were at least able to honor some of the best performers of the 21st century during Tuesday’s Winter Classic.
