The replies to a tweet about Jordin Tootoo leading the Chicago Blackhawks in shot attempts and shots on net after the first period Monday were what you would expect.
They included: “That’s scary stuff.” “Halloween scary.” “Uh … what in the world.”
While it’s understandable fans aren’t expecting Tootoo to be leading the Blackhawks in offensive categories and it will still be likely rare in the future, Tootoo and the Blackhawks’ fourth line have been one of the early-season surprises.
There are reasons why the Blackhawks are having inconsistencies right now, but Tootoo isn't one of them.
