Why the Blackhawks’ Gamble on Jeff Blashill Could Change Everything
The Chicago Blackhawks now present Blashill a second chance at doing just that.
Blashill, 51, has been hired as the Blackhawks’ head coach, the team announced Thursday, making him the 42nd head coach in franchise history. He replaces Anders Sörensen, whom the Blackhawks promoted to interim head coach after firing Luke Richardson early last season. Sörensen was considered to be among the Blackhawks’ candidates for the permanent opening.

Sörensen and Michael Peca will be two of Blashill’s assistants, a league source said. Peca was an assistant coach for the New York Rangers for the past two seasons.
