On this special edition of PuckChatter~Radio, we tribute Tim Sassone, the former 25-year veteran sports writer at the Daily Herald, who covered the Chicago Blackhawks beat for the vast majority of his professional career. Sassone sadly passed away on March 25, 2014 after battling illness. He had just turned 58 years old. We're joined by 4 former friends, colleagues and competitors of Tim Sassone in this 2-part podcast in tribute to the Sassone. Our guests are Chris Kuc of the Chicago Tribune, Brian Hedger of NHL.com, Al Cimaglia of Sirius/XM Radio and Lindsey Willhite, former teammate of Sassone's at the Daily Herald and current Public Relations Director for the Chicago Wolves. Kuc joins Chris Block toward the end of Part 1, recorded and posted April 1, 2015, to discuss the latest Blackhawks news including Patrick Kane returning to practice with his teammates for the first time since fracturing his collarbone in a game on February 24th. Part 2 rejoins the Kuc conversation as he shares his experiences and stories of his great friend, Sassone. Then Lindsey Willhite calls in to recount following Sassone around the day the Blackhawks clinched the 2010 Stanley Cup in Philadelphia and much more. Chris Block, lead writer and editor of TheThirdManIn.com / PuckChatter.com hosts.
