We had so much fun doing our Countdown to Faceoff series last season that we decided to do it again. In case you’re new to the series, we’ll do a roster preview as we count down the days until the Chicago Blackhawks raise their 6th Stanley Cup Banner on October 7th season opener against the New York Rangers.
I remember how excited I was the day the Chicago Blackhawks inked Marian Hossa to a deal to become a member of a young, up and coming team, but there was a catch. He wouldn’t start the season right away.
