The first time my family walked into a Ponderosa Steakhouse was in the late 1960s. It was new and the experience was great. Like other new restaurants, if the management doesn't stay on top, the quality of service can decline. The location we went to did change through the years, but in the beginning, it was great.

According to Shakey's website, this pizza parlor is only in California, North Carolina, and Washington state in the U.S. now. This was my family's go-to pizza joint when my father was stationed with the Air Force outside of Omaha, Nebraska. We liked it so much, that when we were transferred again, it was hopeful we'd find another one.

The Blackhawks have a type. If you haven’t been paying attention, there are elements in every one of these players’ games that are similar when you actually read the scouting reports. And they’re consistent with what the Blackhawks have drafted in the previous two years under general manager Kyle Davidson.

The Blackhawks Have a Type

With the 27th selection in the 2024 NHL Entry Draft, the Chicago Blackhawks select Marek Vanacker from the Brantford Bulldogs of the Ontario Hockey League (OHL) Marek Vanacker is another player in this draft class who saw his game go to another level in his second season of junior hockey. Offensively, his production jumped from a total of 16 points last season to 82 this season. He showed off a strong all-around offensive game, highlighted by some strong playmaking with 46 assists. His goal-scoring also saw a massive boost in production, as he tallied 36 goals for the Bulldogs. His play on the man advantage had a big impact in Brantford’s success this season as well, putting up 18 power play assists to go along with four goals. He did earn a spot on the Canadian U18 World Junior team but did not necessarily factor in a ton for the Canadians.
