Let’s not make it five in a row. How about it, Chicago Blackhawks?
The team is currently mired in a four-game slump during which it has compiled just one point. Tonight offers a chance to break that negative run, as the Blackhawks travel to Winnipeg to face a Jets teams that is well out of the playoff hunt.
The Jets are ahead of only the Edmonton Oilers in the Western Conference, though both teams have 63 points. They traded their captain, Andrew Ladd, to the Blackhawks ahead of the trade deadline for a package that sent Marko Dano to the Jets.
