Puckin Hostile

Chicago Blackhawks hockey with a heavy metal edge, served with general abrasiveness and doused with sarcasm.

In 2010, with a name drawn from the legendary classic Pantera tune F*ckin Hostile, this pragmatic blog was spawned. The initial goal here is to share a dose of reality and teach fans that it's not all doom and gloom or conspiracy theories. New fan doesn't have to equal ignorant fan.

If you can't understand sarcasm, just leave while you can because you will, no doubt, be offended. If you have a sense of humor, please stick around and enjoy. Laugh, and maybe learn a thing or two along the way.

In early 2014, our reach was expanded to the podcast community with the Puckin Hostile Shoutcast, available on iTunes, Google Music, Soundcloud, and all of your favorite podcatchers.

In 2017, Gatekeeper moved over to the newest and hottest Hockey news website, The-Rink.com.  Please follow that channel, as well
