Chicago Blackhawks Greatest 100- #79 Brian Campbell
It’s hard to believe we have knocked out 20 players/executives in our countdown and for the first time we are in the 70’s! Today’s player is one that recently retired like in yesterday!
This recent era of Championship Chicago Blackhawks hockey all started in 2010, but the groundwork was really laid down between 2006-2009 when Dale Tallon made some very good free agent decisions, and made some sensational draft choices.
One of those free agents was Brian Campbell who the old Chicago Blackhawks GM signed in the summer of 2008 right before the Hawks took their giant lead into being one of the best teams in the NHL for a decade.
