First things first, the game is being broadcast on WGN for both TV and radio at 7:00 p.m. central. Chicago is taking a one game trip up to Minnesota for this one before returning to the United Center for their second matchup of the season with the St. Louis Blues.
Here’s how the Chicago Blackhawks lines shape up this evening.
Offense:
- DeBrincat-Toews-Kahun
- Saad-Schmaltz-Kane
- Kunitz-Anisimov-Fortin
- Hayden-Kruger-Kampf
Defense
- Keith-Jokiharju
- Gustafsson-Seabrook
- Manning-Rutta
Ward is starting in net.
Looking at these, the top-six clearly still sticks out after their red-hot start.
