Blackhawks Team Report (Yahoo! Sports)

Fri, 18 Jul 2008 22:53:37 PDT

Since coming into the NHL as an Original Six franchise in 1926, the Blackhawks have hardly been trend-setters. In recent years, in fact, they've generally been considered to operate well behind the times.

The arrival of president John McDonough 10 months ago is changing all that, however. McDonough's latest project is a fan convention—the first in the NHL. It will run July 18-20 at the Hilton Chicago Hotel and representatives of many of the other league teams are expected to attend to see how well it works.

It was during McDonough's 24-year run in the front office of baseball's Chicago Cubs that he devised a fan convention. The first was held in 1986 because McDonough "simply wanted to expand the market-sales cycle to 12 months.
