The Blackhawks are paying tribute to late team owner Rocky Wirtz. The team held a public memorial at the United Center last night. Family and friends and hundreds of current and former Hawks players were in attendance. Wirtz died last month after a brief illness at the age of 70. He took the team over in 2007 after the death of his father, and he oversaw three Stanley Cup titles during his tenure.
