Blackhawks continue playoff quest at Jets

Two straight overtime losses, including a controversial finish in Thursday's defeat to the Boston Bruins, left the playoff-hopeful Chicago Blackhawks with two points out of a possible four.

That certainly counts for something, though, as Chicago chases a Western Conference wild-card spot. That's how the Blackhawks are choosing to view things entering Sunday's visit to the Winnipeg Jets.

Dwelling on what might have been can be a dangerous proposition, and a path on which the team doesn't wish to travel as it opens a five-game road trip through western Canada.

"Don't want to look into games in the future and say that those are ones we gave away that could have been the ones that could have helped," defenseman Connor Murphy said.
