I will be tuning in at chicagoblackhawks.com (plug) for this one. First preseason game and I am excited – I missed hockey!! There are some “bubble guys” here that I will be paying particular attention to, namely Olesz, Smith, Kruger & Stalberg. On the prospect side, I will be looking at Saad, Beach & McNeill. I’ll be curious to see the line combinations too.
