A televised home game in the Chicago market?

I was flipping through my satt. channels and saw the Hawks were on
Comcast sports net tonight.
I haven't kept up with what is happening with the Hawks in years
because Wirtz won't allow home games to be televised in the Chicago
market. For some reason I clicked on the channel to see who they were
playing. Hawks were playing the Blues....it had to be an away game. To
my amazement it was a home game at the United Center. What gives. Did
someone have a gun to Wirtz's head?
Dan.

Years ago I did some research and found out that basically the Hawks
were the *only* team in the entire NHL with no televised home games!!
For this and many other reasons I continue questioning whether the
Hawks are even an NHL team for that matter.
