The Chicago Blackhawks have fired Chris Vosters and hired a new broadcaster

One thing we know is that our fans value a deep hockey knowledge and experience, and it was important to us that our broadcast reflect those values,

We knew it would be difficult to replace someone as loved and talented as Pat Foley when we first started the process three years ago. Of everyone we looked at and available at the time, Chris was the clear favorite, and we were convinced we had found our voice. Chris did a tremendous job calling Blackhawks games, and while it's certainly unfortunate that it didn't work out with him in the end, we're confident that Rick is going to help our broadcast reach new heights and we're excited for him to join the team,

Chris is a tremendous broadcaster with a very bright future ahead of him,
