Blackhawks Visit Walter Reed, Spend Time With Wounded Heroes

The Hawks also made the trip after their 2010 Cup championship

The Chicago Blackhawks are in Washington DC Monday to visit with President Barack Obama at the White House, but before the ceremony to honor them, they visited Walter Reed Medical Center to spend some time with the troops at the facility. 

Fortunately for fans, the NHL posted several excellent photos from the team's visit to the center. Here are Duncan Keith, Patrick Sharp, Patrick Kane, and Nikolai Khabibulin autographing a photo for a soldier: 

Brandon Bollig tweeted this photo of his meeting with a soldier at the facility:
