After the first two games of the season, two things looked pretty clear. The Tampa Bay Lightning offense was firing on all cylinders and the Chicago Blackhawks were in for a long season. The Lightning scored ten goals in those two games while only allowing three. It was a total defensive breakdown on Chicago’s part as they hung out both Malcolm Subban and Collin Dellia to dry with coverage breakdowns and turnovers.
Chicago went on to lose their next two games in Florida, starting the season 0-4 and allowing twenty goals during those four matches.
