The Blackhawks’ fourth line trio didn’t have their best performance in Chicago’s 4-3 win in Game 3 on Wednesday.
The trio of David Kampf, Ryan Carpenter and Matthew Highmore had just a 23.08 Corsi For rating and 22.22 percent shot share at five-on-five, and a 2.36 expected goals percentage (Natural Stat Trick) or somewhere in the low teens (Money Puck).
But despite only playing 7:38 only player stood out among the trio — Highmore.
The undrafted forward scored his first two playoff points of his career in only his third postseason game.
