Re: Wisconsin Hockey Part 3: Just win, baby!
Well... the Blackhawks don't have a rival in Wisconsin. But they are captained by a Sioux player. Yuck.
And the Blackhawks (or rather, $ Bill Wirt$) are probably the primary reason Milwaukee never got an NHL team. They could have kept Borque, promoted Dowell and Skille to the main club and had them on board with Burish, and I'd still hate the Blackhawks. Plus, I was a North Stars fan as a kid, so the Hawks can just burn as far as I'm concerned.
Any chance Milwaukee had of getting an NHL team was already spent up in the late 80s and early 90s. Thank the Wirtz and Gund families for that. The closest we'll ever get to the NHL are the owned-by-a-guy-from-Racine Minnesota Wild.
