We’re back to Chicago for Game 3 of the Western Conference Finals and it might as well be an elimination for the Blackhawks. While a comeback down 3-0 would be epic against Detroit, this isn’t a movie and it just won’t happen. Must win tonight. Bullets…
Both teams are having some trouble getting production from their [...]

Game 4 could have been a chance to put a choke hold on this series for the Blackhawks, but after a loss Tuesday the Hawks need a win to stay competitive.
After falling behind early, just like every other game this series, the Blackhawks couldn’t complete the comeback and now find themselves in a 2-1 hole [...]

This is the time of the year where you’ll hear every game called “pivotal” and “all-important” in playoff series. It’s not that they’re wrong, it’s just that we know they’re important. It’s the playoffs! So the Blackhawks will be in Calgary again tonight for a regularly-vastly-important Game 4. Bullets!
Patrick Kane says he’s ready to go [...]

The Blackhawks will make their way to the Saddledome tonight to try and put a stranglehold on the series against Calgary. The Hawks were 2-0 at Calgary this season, but the playoffs are a whole different animal.
Calls don’t go your way on the road, momentum is nearly impossible to create and even harder to sustain, [...]

When I woke up yesterday, I didn’t even really think about the fact that all 4 Chicago teams were playing that day. I mean I knew I was going to watch the Bulls game and I was really excited about going to the Blackhawks game, but I just didn’t put it all together. Here is [...]

What an unbelievable start to the Stanley Cup Playoffs for the Blackhawks in their return to the postseason. After a slow start the Hawks got it together in the second period and ended up beating the Flames in overtime to take a 1-0 lead in the series.
After the slow start, the Hawks managed to tie [...]

Well that was a little more fun to watch than the last two games. The Blackhawks dominated the Blues at the United Center and moved back into fourth place in the Western Conference. The Hawks are now one point away from clinching that elusive playoff berth and it would be great if they could do [...]

After losing five straight games and seven of the last eight, the Blackhawks got a win on Sunday night against the Los Angeles Kings. The highlight of the 4-1 win was the return of Patrick Sharp, who scored two goals and should give the Blackhawks a much needed lift offensively.
However, the Hawks have been jockeying [...]

The Chicago Blackhawks have lost five of their last six games and are really looking to turn things around to gear up for the playoffs. Chicago hasn’t won in regulation since the first of March and while Khabibulin gets his legs back, they could struggle some more.
The spotlight for the night was thankfully stolen from [...]

The Blackhawks really needed a win last night and finally got one when Cristobal Huet stopped Sergei Samsonov in the shootout. After giving up a goal with less than 30 seconds remaining in regulation, not coming out of the game with two points would have been very disappointing.
Carolina got on the board first, but the [...]
