Chicago at Columbus

Chicago can't wait to atone for a pitiful performance in a 5-1 home loss to Dallas on Thursday after beating the Stars two nights before. Columbus comes off a 6-4 loss to Tampa Bay and the Blue Jackets now have lost eight of their past 10 games and they have lost the last three meetings with the Blackhawks this season. Chicago goalie Kevin Lankinen had an off-game against the Stars, but he still is 14-11-2 with a 2.77 goals-against average and .916 save percentage on the season. Elvis Merzilikins came in to relieve Joonas Korpisalo on Thursday, but allowed three goals on 24 shots. Chicago is 36-16 the past 52 meetings, 19-7 at Columbus. Take the Blackhawks.
