The Canes are coming off of a 2-1 win over the Buffalo Sabres on Monday, however, they did lose winger Eric Robinson to injury in that game.<\/p>\n

Chicago (20-22-7) snapped a three-game losing streak on Monday, defeating the Winnipeg Jets 2-0.<\/p>\n

It’s been another tough season for the young Blackhawks, but a lot of their players are continuing to take steps forward, like Connor Bedard who is well north of a point-per-game pace.<\/p>\n

Add in some solid goaltending support by Spencer Knight and strong special teams play and Chicago is a team that can give anyone trouble on any given night.<\/p>\n
