The Breakaway reveals the untold story of the Wirtz Family, offering an insider's view of a family empire held tightly throughout one generation while suffering a loss of control through the next, documenting in gripping detail how that empire came together—fell apart—and came together again.
When Rocky Wirtz took over the Wirtz Corporation in 2007, including management of the Chicago Blackhawks, the fiercely beloved hockey team had fallen into a humiliating nadir. As chronic losers playing to a deserted stadium, they were worse than bad–they were irrelevant.
Rocky’s success in turning around not only the Chicago Blackhawks, but also the family’s holdings in banking, real estate, wine, beer and liquor distribution was a dramatic shift but not without controversy. Behind the scenes, it would trigger a father, son and brother-against-sibling drama of Shakespearean proportions.
