Coach Joel Quenneville is pleased with the play of Patrick Sharp in the early going. "He had a great camp," Quenneville said. "He's skating as good as I've ever seen him skate. Every single time he's hit the ice, it seems he's at a different pace this year. Heƒ?Ts approached the season in a real positive way. It's good. We expect him to be producing at a real nice rate here." Sharp is on the second line with Marian Hossa and Michal Handzus and sees plenty of time on the first power play as he led the Blackhawks in power play time on ice in the first game at 3:43 minutes. If Sharp can remain healthy, a 35 goal, 70-plus point season is easily within reach.
