“Having Chris join and lead our broadcast team moving forward will help push us to the future of Blackhawks hockey. “As we continue to ‘reimagine the potential of hockey,’ we have found that our broadcast is a key element to connecting with our fans,” Faulkner, the Hawks’ business president, said in a statement. His earnest, easygoing personality and fresh, youthful perspective were surely appealing as the Hawks enter a rebuild and seek to appeal to a wider range of fans. In 2018, he was ranked among the “Top 30 Sportscasters Under 30” by the Sportscasters Talent Agency of America. He called events in three Olympics, including hockey and sled hockey in this year’s Games.
Vosters, 30, a Wisconsin native and University of Wisconsin alum, was previously best known for his work on Big Ten Network and NBC Sports.
