Joel Quenneville attracted attention as soon as he entered United Center, with television cameras and a few of us writers following Florida Panthers coach down the hall to the visiting coaches room.

I actually sensed that Quenneville's return to United Center on Jan. 21 for the first time since he was fired as the Chicago Blackhawks coach on Nov. 6, 2018 would be my favorite memory of the season -- and it is.

Quenneville was 452-249-96 in 11 diy sports iron on transfers seasons with Chicago, leading the Blackhawks to the Stanley Cup Calgary Flames diy decal sticker in 2010 2010, 2013 and 2015. His go back to United Middle was a big deal and even before the game began, emotions were high.

When the Blackhawks honored Quenneville with a video tribute during the first tv timeout, the crowd gave him a roaring position ovation. Blackhawks and Panthers players provided him stick taps as Quenneville waved to the masses and the cheers only grew louder.

Quenneville never has a problem showing feelings during a game but seeing him misty-eyed through the video tribute was surprising.

There was already plenty riding on the Panthers-Blackhawks game. Each team was on a five-video game winning streak. The Panthers were third in the Atlantic Division and the Blackhawks had been three points behind the Arizona Coyotes for the second wild card into the Stanley Glass Playoffs from the Western Conference. The Panthers defeated the Blackhawks 4-3, with Vatrano scoring his second NHL hat trick and goalie Sergei Bobrovsky covid-19 Iron On Transfers making 32 saves.

After Quenneville wrapped up his postgame press conference in which he allowed me to ask the initial question -- it became a tradition in my time here -- he talked with Blackhawks defenseman Duncan Keith, Toews and Kane. For Quenneville, it was a great return to Chicago, on and off the ice.
