Defenseman Johnny Oduya and Niklas Hjalmarsson will return to the Chicago Blackhawks when the team goes for its eighth straight win when they host the Anaheim Ducks on Thursday at United Center.
Hjalmarsson missed four games duet to an upper-body but was activated from injured reserve Wednesday. Meanwhile, Oduya is scheduled to play for the first time since Chicago reacquired him from Dallas on Feb. 28. The Swedish duo won Stanley Cups with Chicago in 2013 and 2015.
Nick Schmaltz returns to the lineup after missing two games with an illness.
