00:00Bob McKenzie reports that the Blackhawks, in search of that veteran leadership that
00:04they really need with a young team, have signed Alec Martinez to a contract, a one-year contract
00:12for a 36-year-old defenseman, been around forever, played with the Kings and won a title
00:21in Vegas.
00:22Winner, good guy for the dressing room.
00:25Now I think that Alec Martinez is a big name in Blackhawk history, because without him
00:33there might be different Blackhawk history.
00:35They may have been talking about back-to-back-to-back championships.
00:39He scored the game-winning goal for the Kings in the 2014 Western Conference Finals in Game
00:467.
00:47That knocked the Hawks out that year.
00:49Okay, we got to get to a break.
00:51I want to leave you with a question that you can answer when we come back.
00:55Does bringing in a veteran player like him, a 36-year-old on a one-year contract, indicate
01:01to you that their first-round draft pick will be with the Blackhawks?
01:07Am I reading too much into that?
01:10Charlie said maybe he has to go to Rockford, maybe he's on a two-way, I don't know.
01:15I want you to answer what this means in terms of a young defenseman drafted second overall.
