Bill Wirtz' Passing
Milone: He died last night. As sad as that is, somehow I feel
closer to a Stanley Cup.
Leheney: As a human being and an American, I mourned the passing of a great capitalist this morning. He lined his pockets like few others, and you have to appreciate that.
As a Blackhawks fan, it only makes me hate this man all the more. Now that he's passed, there is a chance we could have gotten an owner who would have acted like Chicago was a big market team and spent the dollars. Of course, he was instrumental in getting the salary cap passed, and now we can't even leverage the fact that we're in a big market. He even fucked us on the way out. Good riddance.
