Don't get me wrong, there's always a lot of stories of NFL, MLB and NBA players participating in their communities, but it seems as if NHL players go above and beyond.
Absolutely....the Blackhawks taking a side trip to their GM's father's funeral this season was a prime example.

Like I said, I have gone from disliking Scott Stevens to being a fan for life.

No real blockbusters at the deadline, Hawks picked up Sammy Pahlsson from the Ducks as a center in exchange for a 6th D-man, no real big improvement as I see it.
