When you are the brother of the legendary Phil Esposito, it is easy to stay in the shadows.  While it didn’t hurt that Tony was a Goalie, there was no doubt that the younger Esposito carved his own career, and when it was all said and done, he wasn’t Phil’s younger brother.

What bothers us quite a bit is how Pierre Pilote has become a forgotten legend among even some of the Chicago Blackhawks faithful.  Now granted, he played with Stan Mikita, Bobby Hull, and Glenn Hall, but this is a player who, for many, was regarded as the first blueliner to adapt to a two-way game, which makes him not only a top Chicago Blackhawk but one of the most influential players in the game of hockey.

Duncan Keith's run with the Chicago Blackhawks was so brilliant that we feel confident that he is the best Defenseman in franchise history.

Glenn Hall is one of the greatest Goaltenders of all time, and it was in the Windy City where he proved himself to be among the elite not only of his era but forever.
