3 Chicago Blackhawks To Watch Vs. Backes And Co.

Ah, it’s that time of the season: The first of five regular-season meetings between the Chicago Blackhawks and the rival St. Louis Blues. The Blackhawks snapped a two-game skid with a 4-2 win against the hot Los Angeles Kings on Monday. The Kings’ loss ended their seven-game winning run, so they turned right around Tuesday and defeated the Blues 3-0 at Scottrade Center.

Thus, the Blues are coming off no rest and a loss at home, so they should be ripe for the picking for the Blackhawks. Still, St. Louis is ahead of Chicago in the Central Division standings, boasting an 8-3-1 record for 17 points compared to the Blackhawks’ 7-5-0 mark for 14 points.
