How to Host a Blackhawks Party:
Step 1. Invite fun-loving and creative fans to the party! My amazingly crafty sister MADE this adorable wine-sleeve!

Step 2. Ask each guest to bring a dish to pass. The catch is that the dish must be somehow related to a player on the team. Allow your guests to pick their player and see how creative they can be! (Note: Our guests were VERY creative!)
