Actually, the Blackhawks have a policy of not showing home games on local TV no matter how the team is doing. This is because the owner is an asshat who believes that if you show home games on local TV, that downgrades the value of the product because no one will want to come...they will all want to watch on TV.

And it's working SO well, let me tell you.
