The Chicago Blackhawks dug themselves a three-goal hole in the first period, then climbed all the way out of it to beat the Anaheim Ducks 5–3 on Sunday and finally snap their five-game winless skid.
The Ducks blitzed the Blackhawks early with two goals in the first 47 seconds. First, Cutter Gauthier buried a cross-ice feed from Troy Terry just 15 seconds into the game.

The Chicago Blackhawks wrap up their current homestead on Sunday afternoon against the Anaheim Ducks, aiming to put an end to their five-game slide.
The Ducks have been one of the surprise stories of the season, charging out to one of their best starts in years. They currently sit at the top of the Pacific Division thanks to having the second best offense in the league, a production rate that is primarily derived from having one of the most productive under-25 groups this season. The defe...
The Chicago Blackhawks’ 4–3 loss to the Nashville Predators on Friday night at the United Center marked their fifth straight loss. Not great, Bob.
The Blackhawks opened the scoring with 50 seconds left in the first, thanks to a sharp little sequence in transition. Sam Rinzel pushed the puck ahead from the neutral zone, springing Ryan Donato, who stepped into the top of the circle and ripped a snap shot home.

The Chicago Blackhawks look to end their four-game losing streak on Friday as they host the Nashville Predators at the United Center.
The Predators limp into the weekend sitting second-to-last in the NHL by points percentage (.391), with only the Calgary Flames keeping them from claiming the league’s basement suite. Their recent form hasn’t helped matters — a 2-6-2 skid over their last 10 has done a lot of the damage — but they at least arrive with something resembling momentum after a 6–...
The Blackhawks started strong, faded late, then lost 4-3 in overtime on Wednesday night against the Minnesota Wild.
After a dominant first period, the Blackhawks were finally able to beat Minnesota goaltender Filip Gustavvson at 5:41 into the second period when a bad turnover by the Wild bounced to Jason Dickinson in the slot, and he fired it five hole:

The Chicago Blackhawks continue a four-game homestand Wednesday night, welcoming the red-hot Minnesota Wild to the United Center.
The Wild looked like a mess early on, but they’ve been having a lot of success lately, riding a five-game winning streak and an 8-1-1 heater in their last 10, capped off with back-to-back shutouts against the Pittsburgh Penguins (5-0) and Winnipeg Jets (3-0) in their most recent wins. This current run has vaulted them to third in the Central Division and inject...

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...
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.

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 Chicago Blackhawks fell 3–2 to the Seattle Kraken on Thursday night, coughing up a two-goal lead by allowing three unanswered goals in a rough third period.

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 ...
