ST. LOUIS – Another game, another victory for the Blackhawks.
They’re putting together more complete games, and they eked out another tough road win with their 2-1 overtime victory over the St. Louis Blues. Let’s just save everyone some time and get to the Five Things to take from the Blackhawks’ seventh consecutive victory.
1. Artemi Panarin gets the Gordie Howe hat trick. Yeah, that’s the guy you picked to get that, right? But there was Panarin, fighting with Scottie Upshall – Upshall wasn’t happy with Panarin hitting him face-first into the glass – assisting on Marian Hossa’s goal and then scoring the game-winner.
