Blackhawks at Ducks — Lineups, Broadcast Info, Game Thread

The Blackhawks spent three days in Los Angeles and came away with one win — in the first of the two games. Last night’s game saw the Blackhawks skate a good first period and then the wheels completely fall off. They’ll look to rebound against an Anaheim team they haven’t seen nearly as recently as the Kings; it’s been one full week since the Blackhawks and Ducks squared off. The Hawks won’t have a morning skate again on Sunday, but we can safely assume Arvid Söderblom will get the start b...

Ben Johnson spurning Tom Brady’s advances and choosing to coach the Chicago Bears instead of the Las Vegas Raiders has turned out to be a landscape-shifting decision. One of the things I love about a late-afternoon Bears kickoff is that it allows me to poke around and see what is happening around the NFL. With Chicago’s football team having a 3:25 p.m. CT kickoff in Green Bay, I have time to check in on games and spend some extra time reading news and notes from reporters and league insid...

Bumpuses!: Kings 6, Blackhawks 0

The Chicago Blackhawks were thoroughly steamrolled Saturday night, surrendering six goals to the LA Kings and being shutout while offering all the resistance of a revolving door. Gross. Warren Foegele opened the scoring 1:55 into the second period, dropping to one knee and hammering home a one-timer set up by Trevor Moore. Tyler Bertuzzi coughed the puck up along the boards trying to kick it out of danger and too many other Blackhawks were puck watching, leaving Foegele wide open. Mo...
