That aforementioned decision was luring John McDonough away from Chicago Cubs to become president of the Chicago Blackhawks.

McDonough, then 54, spent 24 years with the Chicago Cubs organization before agreeing to become part of the Blackhawks family. He left at a time where the Cubs had just finished winning the Central Division in front of a packed house at Wrigley Field.

What McDonough has done since he has come to the Blackkhawks has been nothing but find success. When McDonough came on, you could get 300 Level seats for 10 in some sections, $15 in others, and have that entire section to yourself.
