Hawks 5-0 in Preseason Surprise

Despite all the offseason negativity, it appears at least on the face of it that Dale Tallon's moves have paid off: The Blackhawks, despite some injuries to key players, are 5-0 in the preseason and have pretty much dominated all 5 games. Having said that, the prospects have not been getting much playing time and the victories have come at the expense of such teams as Columbus, Florida, Minnesota & St. Louis, none of which can be considered NHL powerhouses.

Time will tell if this is all just a mirage or the real thing.
