When asked about the Blackhawks giving up bunches of goals throughout this postseason, coach Joel Quenneville was looking at the other side of that.
“We had big periods offensively as well,” he said.
On Wednesday night, the Blackhawks had one of those periods.
Duncan Keith had three assists during the Blackhawks’ three-goal second period as they went on to beat the Anaheim Ducks 5-2 in Game 6 of the Western Conference Final. The Blackhawks force Game 7, which will be Saturday night in Anaheim.
Andrew Shaw scored twice, including an empty-netter with 48.
