The Blackhawks, one of the NHL’s “Original Six,” have been building a storied legacy since their founding in 1926. The Hawks have produced dozens of stand- out stars, from Hall of Fame goaltender Mike Karakas in the ’30s to Bobby “The Golden Jet” Hull in the ’60s to current team captain Jonathan Toews, who has led the team to a remarkable three championships since 2010. This comprehensive collection includes archival photos, original reporting, player profiles, timelines, statistics, and more—all curated by the Tribune’s sports department from the newspaper’s vast archives.

To find more stabilize the economy.” information about the mayoral candidates, go to chicagotribune.com/mayorsrace. Let’s step back and realize what our current situation is. First, the average wage for workers, adjusted for inflation, hasn’t increased since the 1980s while basically all the growth of our economy has been pocketed by the rich. Second, a large percentage of workers live paycheck to paycheck. Third, there are companies that pay so little that their employees rely on welfare — which comes out of our pockets; we are essentially subsidizing the corporations. Now, the voices screamed when Seattle proposed a $15 minimum wage, but surprisingly, with the increase, more people got hired, and the businesses expanded. A low minimum wage actually allows businesses to avoid paying the wage that our economy requires to function properly. — Lee Knohl, Evanston Let the market decide wages Gov. J.B. Pritzker’s recent endorsement of a raise in the minimum wage is unnecessary and a cave-in to the unions who helped make him governor. While the federal min- imum wage is $7.25 per hour, ask anyone with a Help Wanted sign in the front window what they are really going to expect to pay new hires, if they can find them, and the answer won’t be $7.25. Chicago has increased the min- imum wage, and it has affected most of the businesses outside of Chicago as well. As the owner of Buona Beef points out, in order to make a profit, he has to raise prices 3 to 5 percent to cover the extra labor cost in his Chicago stores. This fact is true for all businesses. Let the market decide what wages should be. — Howard Kirschner, Morton Grove

As we can see, that would not work on this deal. South reasoned that East, who had shown up with the queen-jack of spades and the king-queen of hearts, probably Prickly City By Scott Stantis had the queen of clubs as well. It would be most unusual for West to have led the ace of clubs from a holding of ace- queen. That would give East 10 high-card points, so there was no way he could also have the king of diamonds or he would have opened the bidding. Accordingly, South ruffed the jack of spades in hand, leaving him with only one trump, and led the queen of diamonds. That did it, as it held West to just one diamond trick and South had his contract. Well played!

BLACKHAWKS Strome, DeBrincat are acing chemistry Ex-juniors teammates feeding off each other to help Hawks’ surge By Jimmy Greenfield Chicago Tribune

The puck arrived on Dylan Strome’s stick in such a way that he had to turn from the play, seeming to end any hope of finding an open teammate. Instead, Strome kept his body rotating and sent a backhand pass across the slot that found Alex DeBrincat for a one-timer and a vital goal in the Blackhawks’ 4-3 overtime win over the Canucks on Thursday. Eyes in the back of his head? Nah. “It’s chemistry,” Strome ex- plained. “He’s usually over there.” Despite each being only 21, Strome and DeBrincat already have a long history together. They were teammates for three years with the Ontario Hockey League’s Erie Otters, where they estab- lished themselves as major NHL prospects. Strome was drafted by the Coyotes, DeBrincat by the Hawks, and their careers diverged until November, when the Hawks ac- quired Strome in the trade that sent Nick Schmaltz to the Coyo- tes. The duo have played 31 games together since the deal, but de-

BLACKHAWKS Kahun still has a shot at setting NHL mark By Jimmy Greenfield Chicago Tribune

Every time Dominik Kahun takes the ice, he’s risking his chance to make NHL history. The 23-year-old rookie has played in each of the Blackhawks’ 55 games and has not committed a penalty. If that continues, Kahun would become the first player to play in every game of an 82-game season without any penalty min- utes. In 1973-74, the Sabres’ Craig Ramsay didn’t commit any penal- ties, but the NHL schedule was 78 games then. The Islanders’ Butch Goring played 78 games without a penalty in 1980-81 but missed two games of the 80-game schedule. The NHL went to an 82-game schedule in 1995-96. Kahun rarely went to the penal- ty box during four seasons in Germany’s top league. In 157 regular-season games with EHC Red Bull Munich, Kahun had 16 penalty minutes, including just two last season. “I just try to skate as much as possible so I don’t need to hook somebody or trip somebody,” Kahun explained. “Sometimes if it happens, it’s just because there’s no other way.” Kahun has company in his bid to set the record. The Avalanche’s JONATHAN DANIEL/GETTY Sam Girard is the only other Alex DeBrincat, center, celebrates his second-period goal Thursday night with his Blackhawks teammates, including Dylan Strome (17). player who has played in all of his team’s games this season without committing a penalty. “It’s impressive he hasn’t taken any penalties,” Hawks coach Jere- my Colliton said of Kahun. “When Strome, DeBrincat meshing you’re a rookie, a lot of times they’ll let a veteran get away with Blackhawks, from Page 1 “We’ve had a couple of close DeBrincat.

BULLS NOTES Lopez won’t ‘rock boat’ by seeking buyout (yet) By K.C. Johnson Chicago Tribune

NEW YORK — Other than making fun of his twin brother and terrorizing NBA mascots, Robin Lopez doesn’t like to create a fuss. “I never want to rock the boat too much,” Lopez said. “My main goal when I’m on a team is to make everybody else’s job easier, to help everybody else out. That’s my No. 1 priority.” And so, as of Friday, Lopez said he hadn’t talked to his agent regarding a potential buyout from the Bulls to join a contender. “I’m not worried about that,” Lopez said. “While I’m here, I’m going to contribute how I can. I’m going to relish the opportunity. I enjoy playing with these guys. I enjoy being on the floor with them. Any chance I get to play, I’m looking forward to it.” Players have to be waived by March 1 in order to be playoff eligible. Could Lopez’s stance change? “Who knows, man?” he said. Even if it did, there’s no guaran- tee the Bulls would comply. Speaking at the Advocate Center on Thursday, executive vice presi- dent John Paxson reiterated the franchise’s dislike of the practice. He did say, out of respect to Lopez’s professionalism, that the Bulls would at least have dialogue if Lopez and his agent approach him.

On point: Paxson on Thursday also acknowledged the inconsis- tent play of Kris Dunn, who is eligible for an extension this summer but isn’t even guaranteed to be the starting point guard next season. “The point guard position is a critical position. It’s a tough one to play,” Paxson said. “You have to be a leader. You have to be a distribu- tor. You have to be a scorer. It will be interesting to see now as we’ve added another legitimate wing in Otto (Porter Jr.) how Kris handles that role with scorers. And we’re excited about that. “We’ve said all along that this MARY ALTAFFER/AP process is about learning who fits, Bulls forward Lauri Markkanen, right, goes up for a shot as the Nets’ Jarrett Allen defends during the second half Friday night. who doesn’t. We still like Kris a lot. I mean, he’s had some ups and downs this year in terms of his consistency. And that’s always a challenge for players. He’s been Porter’s opportunity competitive. He can still defend. And he’s playing hard. So we’re going to keep evaluating him.”

BASEBALL

BASEBALL NOTES Cubs could play in London next year Associated Press

Major League Baseball is con- sidering one of two matchups for its 2020 series in London: Cubs versus Cardinals or Mets versus Nationals. Two people familiar with the discussions told the Associated Press of the potential matchups. They spoke on condition of ano- nymity Friday because no an- nouncements had been author- ized. An announcement is ex- pected after opening day. MLB’s first games in Britain are scheduled for this summer, when the World Series champion Red Sox play the Yankees at London’s Olympic Stadium on June 29-30. The venue was built for the 2012 Olympics and reconfigured for the Premier League club West Ham United. Baseball’s collective bargaining agreement calls for a 2020 opener in Asia, April games in Mexico, May games in Puerto Rico or the Dominican Republic and June games in Britain.
