The story of the eliminated Chicago Blackhawks reminds me of the Pittsburgh Penguins - the first playoff appearance of Sidney Crosby and Evgeni Malkin ended in the first round. The Blackhawks' dynamic duo - Jonathan Toews and Patrick Kane managed to win two rounds before losing to the Detroit Red Wings. Fortunately Kane, Toews and the rest of Chicago's core players - including Cam Barker, Kris Versteeg, Dave Bolland, Duncan Keith and Brent Seabrook still haven't reached their prime and should be better with each passing year - this is especially true for defencemen. Thus it is safe to say that the Hawks will get another chance to reach the Stanley Cup Finals soon.
