Some news and notes from Friday morning ahead of the game this evening between the Chicago Blackhawks and the Ottawa Senators.
The Blackhawks lines and defensive pairings at Friday morning skate were the same from the Toronto Maple Leafs game. Petr Mrazek was unsurprisingly in net.
Blackhawks lines in morning skate in Ottawa are unchanged:
Kurashev-Domi-Kane
TJohnson-Gutttman-Raddysh
Dickinson-Lafferty-Athanasiou
Katchouk-RJohnson-Blackwell
McCabe-SJones
JJohnson-Murphy
CJones-Mitchell
