Plenty of story lines surrounding the Blackhawks as season enters its final week. Chief among them: Jonathan Toews' future; Rockford playoff hopes.
When a team misses the playoffs by almost 40 standings points, it normally limps to the finish line with nary a story line in sight.
Still, there will be plenty of tough goodbyes to behind-the-scenes employees -- ones like equipment manager Troy Parchman, head athletic trainer Mike Gapski, strength and conditioning coach Paul Goodman and even parking attendant Frankie Tomaselli. How does Toews say thank you for everything they did to help make his life easier for 15 seasons?
"I feel like it's one of those things that doesn't fully sink in until after it's over," he said."And you reminisce to the big moments when you win the Stanley Cup and you know everything happened around you is going to be a memory before you know it. Rockford is just 1 point ahead of the defending champion Chicago Wolves for the fifth and final spot in the Central Division. Both teams have four games remaining, including one against each other at Rockford on Tuesday.
Richardson really hopes Reichel -- and all of the IceHogs -- get to experience the postseason.
Anaheim lost its last two games in OT, which gave the Ducks 2 points and pushed them into 30th overall.
