With a three day break courtesy of NHL schedulemakers, several members of the Chicago Blackhawks got to spend some quality time with their families on Christmas, and some of them were nice enough to post pictures of their holiday celebrations.
Forward Andrew Shaw made a gingerbread house with his girlfriend that is remarkably well-constructed:
A lot of time put into the ginger bread house from @Chaunetteb and my self but best house I've ever seen! #champs pic.twitter.com/BimhGbk6AP — Andrew Shaw (@shawz15er) December 24, 2013
Defenseman Nick Leddy posted with a gift that puts the traditional homemade gift from grandma to shame:
Glad he liked his Christmas present #twinz? @ledpipe08 pic.twitter.com/AdK1mPOvue — Caitlin Reilly (@babycaitz9) December 26, 2013

Blackhawks prospect Jeremy Morin spent some quality time with his family, including one pup that decided to make itself at home amongst the Morins’ Christmas presents:

Finally, Hawks defenseman Mike Kostka continued to embrace his resemblance to Avengers’ hero Thor with this gift that he got for Christmas:
Hate to say it @foreverrphoebe but your present was my second favorite... pic.twitter.com/4tCjMHeaxC — Michael Kostka (@Kostka85) December 26, 2013
