The Chicago Blackhawks wrapped up another successful fan convention on Sunday. This marked the 6th year the Hawks have held the convention for their fans which includes many current players and Hawks favorites from the past. The convention doesn’t do much for me mainly because the team gets enough of my money during the season. Another reason I have not attended since the first year is that the format has gotten stale. How many times can you sit and listen to the same exact panels? There is only so many times I can pay $75 to hear Patrick Kane and Jonathan Toews make jokes about each other. So I have complied a list sessions, panels, seminars or whatever you’d like to call them, that would spice up next summer’s convention.
