The defending NHL Champion Blackhawks are on the cusp of the playoffs once again, so this becomes a big game for them. They are off a shutout loss where they were beaten 2-0, but this team has responded big off a shutout loss. This year the Blackhawks are a perfect 3-0 following a shutout. The Canadiens are limping down the home stretch at just 5-7 in their last 12 games including just 2-3 at home. Chicago is now 43-20 after scoring 2 or fewer in their last outing, and get it done here. Chicago gets the call.
