Before Sunday’s game, I said my attention was on more than the final score of the game against the NHL-best Colorado Avalanche. On paper, the Blackhawks should have been boat raced out of their own barn. Especially coming out of a game in Buffalo in which they gave up nine goals. I wanted to see the young Blackhawks turn their worst performance of the year into a nothing and compete.
The Blackhawks did that on Sunday.
And, while I know I have never been one to preach moral victories ...

In another busy back-to-back weekend set the Colorado Avalanche concluded their road trip with another divisional foe in the Chicago Blackhawks. In the past this matchup has been a bit of trouble but Scott Wedgewood was up to the task, crafting his own shutout on the weekend with 22 saves in a 1-0 Avalanche victory. […]
The Blackhawks were shut out for the first time this season at home on Sunday night, losing 1-0 to the Colorado Avalanche.
Chicago had some golden opportunities in the opening 20 but the first period ended scoreless. Colorado took over in the second and then opened the scoring when Cale Makar fired this rebound home with 1:39 left before the second intermission:

The top team in the NHL standings will be on the ice at the United Center this evening, as the Blackhawks host the Colorado Avalanche on Sunday night.
The Avalanche are burying opponents on a nearly nightly basis, with just one regulation loss in their first 21 games (15-1-5). They enter this game on an 8-game winning streak, most recently beating the Nashville Predators 3-0 on the road on Saturday night, which means the possibility of heavy legs for the visitors does exist. Still, this t...
Sunday night’s game starts the “second chapter” of the Blackhawks’ Centennial celebration. With that, they released the second episode of their Centennial docuseries, titled “The Madhouse.” It celebrates the amazing atmosphere at the Chicago Stadium.
Narrated by Eddie Olczyk, they talk about the anthem tradition (with an appearance from Wayne Messmer) and the history of the old barn. They did a great job. This will stir your heart and make your ears ring a little if you were ever fortunat...
Today presents the biggest early test to date for the young Blackhawks’ building process. The Blackhawks were playing well, but collapsed in the third period on Thursday night and never got off the bus on Friday in Buffalo. Two deflating losses in which they were exhausted, undermanned and, on Friday, not competitive for most of the night. How the Blackhawks bounce back from their last four periods will be telling. This is where the veteran teams of the past couple years would struggle to righ...

When the Blackhawks announced they were bringing back the black jerseys last week, most Blackhawks were ecstatic. The team’s online store broke its single-day sales record in the first hour the jerseys were available, and some sizes were sold out seemingly immediately.
But there are some out there who aren’t in love with the black sweaters. Some will point out that there are too many black jerseys in the NHL. Others will remind us that the Blackhawks weren’t especially good during the era...
The Lukas Reichel Experiment in Vancouver has been a disaster. Per a report from insider Rick Dhaliwal, the Canucks are already looking to move on from the beleaguered forward, and are ready to flip him in another trade.

The Chicago Blackhawks fell 9–3 to the Buffalo Sabres Friday night in what was easily the worst loss of the season. Honestly, just pretend your TV accidentally shut off and never think about this again.
The Sabres opened the scoring at 13:57 of the first. Tage Thompson sent a slick pass to a wide open Josh Doan in front and he tucked it through the backdoor on his second attempt to make it 1-0 Sabres.

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!).

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...
The Blackhawks took to social media on Friday morning to announced that the all-black home uniforms from the 1990s and 2000s are returning this season for select games at the United Center:
