Blackhawks at Sabres — Lineups, Broadcast Info, Game Thread

The Blackhawks hopped on a plane after losing to the Kraken last night and headed to Buffalo, where they’ll play the one road game in a stretch of eight of nine at the United Center. The Sabres will be waiting for them with hopes of getting right; they’re 2-5-1 in their last eight games and gave up six goals to the Flames on Wednesday night (yikes!). The second half of a back-to-back with travel in the middle is always tough. With André Burakovsky not available, and the Blackhawks not hav...

It Remembers: Blackhawks at Sabres Preview

A fortuitous back-to-back arrives on the schedule for the Hawks this week, giving the team a chance to quickly dispense of the unpleasantries from Thursday night when it ventures to Buffalo to face the Sabres on Friday. Buffalo hasn’t been to the playoffs since 2011 and doesn’t appear any closer to bucking that trend this season because it currently sits 29th in the league standings roughly one-quarter of the way through this season. The Sabres don’t do much of anything well: they’re 24th...

Into the Flood Again: Blackhawks vs. Kraken Preview

The Blackhawks continue their home-heavy portion of their schedule in the back half of November on Thursday night, hosting the Seattle Kraken at the United Center. These two teams met a few weeks ago in the Pacific Northwest during a Hawks’ road trip, with the Kraken taking a 3-1 victory in a game that saw the Hawks turn in a decent performance despite that unfortunate result. Chicago seemed to have the better of the scoring opportunities in that game, but Seattle always seemed to have a ...

Blackhawks vs Kraken — Lineups, Broadcast Info, Game Thread

The Blackhawks and Kraken are two of the teams surprising people early this season. They played 17 days ago in Seattle, a 3-1 win for the home team.

The Hawks are going to keep Ryan Greene on the top line, however. Bertuzzi will be on a line with Frank Nazar and Oliver Moore tonight. Let’s see if the Blackhawks can keep the ...

Blackhawks Forward Updates: Nazar, Dickinson, Bertuzzi Questionable, Burakovsky Back

The Blackhawks lost a tough game to a very good Devils team on Wednesday night. It was easy to employ one big excuse for the loss: the Blackhawks were without three key forwards in the game. There was good news from the Blackhawks’ practice on Friday, even if it was only briefly positive. Frank Nazar, Jason Dickinson and André Burakovsky were on the ice for practice on Friday. Tyler Bertuzzi was not. Initially, having three important forwards back with the group was encouraging. But ...

Blackhawks Week That Was and Will Be, 11/14: Hold Fast Hope

I know it’s been several days since it happened, but my mind still keeps venturing back to how delightful it was to spend a Sunday afternoon watching a couple of young stars do the things that Connor Bedard and Caleb Williams did last weekend. It wasn’t long after the final horn sounded on yet another multi-point performance from No. 98 that Williams reeled off a pair of late touchdowns to secure yet another Bears victory. It’s easy to draw comparisons between the two, even if their sport...

Blashill’s Impact, Bertuzzi’s Bounce, Bedard and Celebrini, Hurting Leafs, and Other Blackhawks Bullets

Shayna Goldman at The Athletic did a deep dive on the impact we’ve seen from the nine new head coaches around the NHL thru the first month of the season, a list that obviously includes Jeff Blashill with the Blackhawks. Here’s part of what she wrote about Blashill’s impact: The process is far from perfect in Chicago through the first month of play. The team is still allowing a high rate of shots and chances, even with the shift from zone defense to a hybrid system. The difference now, c...

Blackhawks Working to Get a Better Sam Rinzel

I’m not sure how many people saw it and/or took note when the pregame lines went up yesterday, but Sam Rinzel went from skating on the Blackhawks’ top defensive pair to being the seventh defenseman. Louis Crevier was up with Alex Vlasic in rushes at the morning skate. Then the game happened. The Devils needed overtime to beat the Blackhawks 4-3 . And, when the dust settled, Rinzel had skated only 11:29 — the lowest ice time among Hawks defensemen by almost three minutes. When Rinzel ...

Progress in a Flat Loss, Hot Bedard, Kantserov Scores, Buy Cheli’s House, and Other Blackhawks Bullets

The Blackhawks lost a game last night. They were out-shot again. In the words of their captain, Nick Foligno , the Blackhawks didn’t have their legs and didn’t play their best game. Their head coach agreed with that assessment. The Blackhawks came home from a long road trip and had a fairly flat performance. The Blackhawks didn’t have André Burakovsky, Frank Nazar or Jason Dickinson available. Landon Slaggert got into Chicago a couple hours before the game. Sam Lafferty was skating in onl...

Every Word Handwritten: Devils 4, Blackhawks 3

There was a hat trick scored at the United Center on Wednesday night but it wasn’t by anyone on the home team or anyone you’d expect from the road team, but it led to the New Jersey Devils skating away with both points in a 4-3 OT victory. Late in the first period, a pair of NJ penalties gave Chicago a two-man advantage and a long sequence of sustained pressure ended with this Connor Bedard one-timer for a goal: pic.twitter.com/QImy9pViK9 — BlackhawksFocus (@FocusBlackhawks) No...
