Sherri West+FollowWhy the Blackhawks still get national TV loveDespite sitting near the bottom of the Central Division, the Chicago Blackhawks are getting 15 nationally televised games this season—matching last year’s total. That’s more than other rebuilding teams like the Sharks or Sabres. The big draw? Connor Bedard’s star power, Chicago’s massive market, and the team’s Original Six legacy. While some of these games are only on ESPN+/Hulu, the Hawks are still front and center against top teams and rivals. Do you think it’s fair for struggling teams to get this much national attention, or should TV slots go to contenders? #Sports #IceHockey #Blackhawks00Share
