Blackhawks Make Fourth Straight Postseason

Dallas in seven. Nashville in five. Dallas in four.

Fourth time's the charm?

Remember, it took Vincent Gambini six times to pass the bar in My Cousin Vinny. And he won it all in the end, right? I mean, he won the case, sure - but it also led to him marrying Marisa Tomei, so...

Anyway...

The Chicago Blackhawks are back in the playoffs. It's the fourth time in as many seasons for GM Thomas Gidlow, who resurrected the club after a dead-last finish in the 2016-17 campaign.

But this time, something feels different.

Sure, it's the same old thing in the Central Division. In the toughest division in the EHE, the Dallas Stars are battling for supremacy, this time with the Colorado Avalanche in the Central merry-go-round of contention. That means the Blackhawks will likely have to face one of those powers in the first round.

There's also the slimmer chance Chicago slips to the first wild-card spot. That would give them Arizona or Vegas in Round One.

Either way, there's no easy way out. Chicago needs to find a way. With the team clicking with only seven games left in the regular season, there's no better time than the present. As Mr. Gallo Callo Gambini would say...

"Everything that guy just said is bullshit. Thank you."

Oops. Wrong quote.

"Dead-on balls accurate."

That's better.
