The Chicago Blackhawks have had legendary players in the mix for a lot of their recent years but where does Patrick Sharp stack up?
The Chicago Blackhawks were an elite team for ten years. It very well might go down as the greatest stretch in the history of the franchise. It is also one of the greatest dynasties in the history of the National Hockey League. They also had to do it in the salary cap era which makes it even more impressive. The fact that a player like Patrick Sharp was their sixth-best player says a lot about how good they were.
Sharp was a brilliant NHL player and was extra special in his year with Chicago. He spent the first two years and change with the Philadelphia Flyers. They traded him to Chicago 22 games into his 2005-06 season. He played in 749 games for the Blackhawks and scored 249 goals and had 283 assists for 532 points. It was a brilliant trade for Chicago as he was a key piece to their three-time championship core.
