Blackhawks Player Gets Brutally Honest About His Frustrations in an Interview
It is safe to say that the culture in Chicago right now is very negative. The team is in the midst of one its worst seasons in franchise history, as fans prepare to part ways with franchise cornerstones Patrick Kane and Jonathan Toews and the deadline.
The atmosphere in the locker room isn't much better, as it is never fun to be a player in the middle of a rebuild. One player in particular, however, decided to speak out about his frustrations.
Jake McCabe joined the Blackhawks last season, after spending the first eight of his career in Buffalo. After spending nearly a decade on one of the worst teams in NHL history in Buffalo, he hoped for a fresh start with Chicago. Unfortunately, he is now stuck in the same boat as he was in Buffalo.
I don't really give a shit about my personal stats, to be honest with you ... It's all about the team and all about winning. I've lost a lot in this league, and it's getting pretty old. So I wouldn't say that I'm by any means satisfied if I'm playing good or not. It depends on how we're doing as a team.
Approaching 30, McCabe just wants to win for once. On Chicago's side, hopefully all of these losses will be worth it, when they take the stage at the 2023 draft.
