I’ve been writing about the St. Louis Blues for St. Louis Game Time since March 2021. But, unlike my fellow staff writers, I didn’t grow up as a Blues fan and I wasn’t from Eastern Missouri or Southern Illinois. I was actually a really big Chicago Blackhawks fan. I knew everything there was to know about the Blackhawks — both on and off the ice.
But, like most other people in this country, the pandemic forced me out of my (journalism) job. I covered the San Jose State Spartans’ football and men’s basketball teams in San Jose, California.
