The Blackhawks will play the Flyers for the second and final time this season when Chicago wraps up its seven-game homestand Thursday night at the United Center. The Flyers claimed the first outing 4-3 in the season opener for both teams in Prague thanks to two goals by Travis Konecny.
Chicago (2-3-2) will be without defenseman Connor Murphy (groin), who was placed on long-term injured reserve Wednesday, like it was in the season opener but they’ll have Calvin de Haan in the lineup this time. De Haan will slot up in the lineup alongside Duncan Keith, while Slater Koekkoek draws in on the third pairing with Erik Gustafsson.
