Verdi on the Hawks' chances to repeat

I have to endorse this, by Bob Verdi, on the chances of my Blackhawks repeating as Stanley Cup champs.

Ok, so they lost some depth this summer. But they're stronger in goal with Turco and Crawford than they were last year with Niemi and Huet, they're just as good (if not a little better) on defense, and the rookies are capable of picking up most of the slack- if not all of it (Byfuglien had a tremendous playoff, but not all that hot a season- or career- previously).

Diss them all you want. It will just keep them hungry. In the meantime- all hail the champions!
