Blackhawks Game Day: 3 things to watch versus Mammoth blackhawkup.com/blackhawks-g...

Levshunov is running the second power-play unit, but, as we know, that doesn't mean he’s playing.

#Blackhawks lines this morning: Dach-Bedard-Burakovsky Teravainen-Nazar-Bertuzzi Donato-Greene-Mikheyev Foligno-Reichel/Dickinson-Lafferty Vlasic-Rinzel Grzelcyk-Murphy Kaiser-Crevier Levshunov is rotating rushes with Crevier.

Jason Dickinson is taking part in today’s morning skate. Spencer Knight is the starter’s crease.

If I’m Jed Hoyer I would simply kill my boss monster, Tom Ricketts, then use the coins that come out of him to buy better baseball players

Somehow, @hockeenight.bsky.social convinced me to get up early on a Sunday and record a new episode of the Second Balcony for you! Please like, subscribe, follow, review, share, and enjoy!! www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pfo3...

Start your Sunday off with a fresh batch of Morning Chirps! 🚨 New Blackhawks Ambassadors 🚨 IceHogs win 🚨 Another key injury for the Panthers 🚨 1st NHL goals for a pair of young defensemen blackhawkup.com/new-blackhaw...

Show-stopping save here by Jake Oettinger to save the game for the Dallas Stars in the final minute of OT. I love how he attacks the puck with his glove. He stretched to project it out as far as he could to take away the vertical angle to the cross bar.

Blackhawks Postgame Musings: Too many penalties, but a lot of spirit blackhawkup.com/blackhawks-p...

FINAL SCORE! Montreal Canadiens 3 (Caufield, Bolduc, Slafkovsky), Chicago Blackhawks 2 (Rinzel, Bedard) Another tough loss in a game that was there for the taking. We’ll talk about it on the @chgo-blackhawks.bsky.social Postgame Show. www.youtube.com/watch?v=MdzN...

What a garbage way to end this game.

END OF THE 2ND PERIOD Montreal Canadiens 2 (Caufield, Bolduc), Chicago Blackhawks 2 (Rinzel, Bedard) That was a crazy and fun period. A little bit of everything.

Dach called for tripping. Habs get their NINTH power play.

Bedard got an extra two minutes for unsportsmanlike conduct.

Carrier and Bedard both getting minors. Foligno is having a lengthy discussion with the ref, who is now hearing it from Blashill.

Habs going after Bedard again post-whistle. Doubt they will call any penalties.

This is getting ridiculous. Lafferty sits for tripping.

Bedard gets the Artem Anisimov special in front of the net.

GOAL. Bedard. 2-2.

Knight just bailed out Rinzel with a diving stick save.

Xhexaj off for roughing. Grabbed Dach after the whistle. About time the refs try to take control.

I have no idea how Demidov avoided any penalties during that sequence.

GOAL. Bolduc. 2-1. Habs got another power play out of all that mess.

WE HAVE CHAOS. Guhle took a run at Nazar, then got pummeled by Crevier. Then Kaiser and Bertuzzi got into with Demidov and Newhook.

Just like in Boston, the Blackhawks have a quick response.

GOAL. Rinzel. His first in the NHL. 1-1.

Goal stands. 1-0. Maybe try staying out of the penalty box.

GOAL. Caufield. 1-0 Might look at this for a high stick.

Demidov went hard to the crease. Kaiser took exception to it and was called for cross-checking.

2nd period is upon us.

Blashill put Bedard and Nazar together for the last shift of the period. I like how he's looking to do that as the game dictates it.

END OF THE 1ST PERIOD Chicago Blackhawks 0, Montreal Canadiens 0 Far too much time on the PK that frame, but 5v5 play was good.

Lafferty now off for "tripping" Dobson.

Blashill is showing trust in the young guys. Greene and Nazar were out there together at the end of that last PK.

Muprhy called for interference. 5v3 for 33 seconds.

Grzelcyk sits for high sticking.

Amazing what a clean entry on the power play can do for you.

Suzuki called for holding to wipe out the final 44 seconds of the power play. 4v4.

Canadiens get the first power play after Donato puts the puck in the crowd. Delay of game.

Blackhawks. Canadiens.

Great ovation for Troy Murray. We are all thinking of you, bud.

Blackhawks lines vs Canadiens: Dach-Bedard-Burakovsky Teravainen-Nazar-Bertuzzi Donato-Greene-Mikheyev Foligno-Reichel-Lafferty Vlasic-Rinzel Grezlcyk-Murphy Kaiser-Crevier

There have been 124 players who have played for both the Blackhawks and Canadiens, including goaltender Jocelyn Thibault. He played 158 games for Montreal before being traded to Chicago, where he manned the crease for 321 games over six seasons.

Spencer Knight and Sam Montembeault have led their teams onto the United Center ice.

Man, they even scratched Arty for the red carpet.

Lukas Reichel draws back in, a new-look third line, and a curious morning for Artyom Levshunov. Here are three things to watch in the Blackhawks' home opener versus the Canadiens. blackhawkup.com/blackhawks-g...

Lukas Reichel will play tonight. Blashill said Dickinson’s injury is not too serious. Might miss up to a week.

Blackhawks lines: Dach-Bedard-Burakovsky Teravainen-Nazar-Bertuzzi Donato-Greene-Mikheyev Foligno-Reichel-Lafferty Vlasic-Rinzel Kaiser-Levshunov Grzelcyk-Murphy Knight is in the starter’s crease.
