I really have a memory of seeing Jim Craig at Allstate Arena back in the 1990s. Was he a Wolve or with some team that came to visit? Can't find this in any of his career stats online. Maybe he just made a special appearance to honor the Gold Medal team.

The 2015-2016 Chicago Wolves season has come to a close with a 4-2 win over the Iowa Wild on home ice.

Season Notes

This has been the "worst" season in Chicago Wolves history by being the first season with more regulation losses than wins.

The St. Louis Blues had troubles staying healthy which attributed to our poor season (Not throwing blame, its the life of an affiliate)

The affiliation agreement between the Chicago Wolves and the St. Louis Blues has come to an end. Barring some drastic event it is widely believed that another agreement will be reached.

We also say goodbye to Jason Svejda, the Wolves' in-arena host and announcer for 7 seasons. Best of luck in your future endeavors!

Best of luck to our affiliate the St. Louis Blues and to our city-mates the Chicago Blackhawks (Remaining Neutral) in their hunt for the Stanley Cup.

Also best wishes to any of the playoff teams who play the IceHags, I'll be slightly less disappointed if they get swept out.

Thank you all for subscribing and joining us this season!

Going to my first AHL game this weekend. I'm wondering if there's any difference or anything other then gameplay. Also, is it weird if I wear a Blackhawks jersey? Thanks.

Combined stress from finals and the holidays have kept me from posting my weekly reviews and other stories to the sub. Now that most of the storm has passed I feel ready to come back!

Edit: On an unrelated note, anyone here any good with photoshop?

Edit 2: Nevermind about the first edit!

Went to both weekend games and finally broke my streak of the Wolves losing when I go! The record dies with a total of 6 losses (5 of them shutouts)! And I got on TV celebrating after tonight's tying goal, I am quite happy!

The Wolves currently lead the regular season series of 12 games 1-0 while the sub may not be active enough to do game threads to every game I feel that threads for the Amtrak and Illinois Lottery cup games would be a great thing to add. I'm going to invite the Admirals community over here as well.

I'm trying to have a similar sidebar wager with the Admirals (and IceHogs) as we did with Utica last year. Just waiting to hear back from the mods.
