Black Hearted: Avalanche 4, Blackhawks 3 in OT

The Chicago Blackhawks lost 4-3 in overtime to the Colorado Avalanche on Tuesday at the United Center, overcoming a 2-0 deficit along the way. It continues a five-game losing streak for the Blackhawks.

The game started with a fight between Connor Murphy and Gabriel Landeskog after Landeskog hit a kneeling Kirby Dach into the boards, which looked very rough on slow-motion replay.

About five minutes later in terms of game time, the Avalanche scored first as Erik Johnson got a shot from the point past Marc-Andre Fleury.

Later in the first, Alex Newhook got the puck in the left faceoff circle after a failed zone clear and after some stick handling elevated a puck above Fleury’s shoulder, making it a 2-0 game in favor of the Avalanche.
