It was not even five minutes into the game and the Pittsburgh Penguins were up 2-0. The Blackhawks were running around leaving opponents wide open in the slot, no one was battling hard in front of the net, and it just felt like one of those games in the middle of our long losing streaks in November. At one point in first period, NBC Sports put up a couple interesting stats. Hawks have given up the most goals in the NHL in the first period with 59 goals against. They also have 17 losses when the opponent scores first, which is tied for second in the NHL.
3 up, 3 down from Blackhawks’ 5-3 win against Penguins
