Anyone that thought the Blackhawks would have a three-game winning streak that included taking four points from two games with the Stars is lying.
Pretty much everyone was ready for a long and difficult season, that was mercifully going to be a shortened one. Those fears haven’t played out, and now people are considering Chicago could be in the mix for the postseason.
Personally, I’m not ready to say the Chicago Blackhawks are a playoff team. Even if the team made it into the NHL’s top 16 power rankings.
