These outdoor games are more about the atmosphere than the outcome, and that’s why the Hawks’ first remains the most memorable. The Red Wings still held the upper hand in the rivalry, and they proved it by beating the Hawks for the second time in three days. The Hawks squandered a 3-1 lead and allowed the Wings to score the next five goals. “We let them off the hook,” Brent Seabrook said. “They're the best team in the league, the Stanley Cup champions. We have to step on their throat and put the game out of reach when we have a chance." But Chris Chelios, the former Hawk and Chicago native who was wearing the colors of the enemy, summed up why this game was so special. “Standing on the ice, looking at the surrounding rooftops and the bleachers and being on an ice surface in the middle of Wrigley Field is not a normal, everyday thing,” Chelios said. “You're never going to get a better setting than this.”
