In a must-win game, the Blackhawks played their worst game of the season, losing the game 4-1.

The Blackhawks played their worst game in the season against the worst team in the league.

After the first goal of the game, the Blackhawks found themselves playing flat-footed in the defensive zone, with Dylan Larkin and Filip Zadina skating circles around them. Kevin Lankinen allowed a horrible goal with a badly angled blocker, sending the puck over his own shoulder and into the net. Duncan Keith did score the opening goal, but the team looked to have gotten worse as the game went on.
