Pretty impressive what the Blue Jackets have done in a short amount of time under Rick Bowness.

It's kind of hard not to hate everything right now.

Nick Foligno expected to play tomorrow vs. CBJ. Spencer Knight just took a maintenance day today.

Game over, Blackhawks win 6-3. Don't forget to tip your server.

Donato with his second of the night and it's 6-3 Blackhawks at 14: 41.

We're through two, it's 5-2 Blackhawks. SOG are 13-13.

Crevier launches the puck into the stands. Delay of game at 18:19.

Macklin Celebrini scores and it's 5-2 at 15:11 of the second period.

And now it's Mikheyev's turn, and it's 5-1 Blackhawks at 12:41.

Will Smith scores to get the Sharks on the board, 4-1, at 12:05 of the second. Smith's got about 30 friends & family here tonight (family on his mom's side is from Chicago).

That's it for Askarov, who allowed four goals on 10 shots. Nedeljkovic coming in for SJS.

Will Smith tried to slip the puck past the line on the backhand. It stayed on the line. Next sequence, Rinzel scores from the slot to give the Blackhawks a 4-0 lead at 10:36.

Donato held, got around Desharnais and then fired. It worked. It's 3-0 Blackhawks at 9:35 of the second.

Nothing doing on that Blackhawks power play. SOG are still 2-1 Blackhawks 13:43 into the game.

Another Blackhawks power play coming after Misa is called for hooking at 11:35. SOG 2-1 Blackhawks.

Bedard from the left circle and it's 1-0 Hawks with the power-play goal seven minutes into the first. Pass from Teravainen in the slot.

Blackhawks get their first power play at 5:34. Too many Sharkies on the ice. SOG still 1-0 Hawks. Riveting so far, this one is.

Good kill by the Blackhawks. Zero shots for the Sharks.

Interference on Rinzel at 1:42 of the first. Sharks heading to the power play. SOG 1-0 Hawks.

Puck. Droppethed.

Celebrini vs. Bedard, young rebuilding team vs. young rebuilding team, Philipp Kurashev revenge game, this one has it all :)

The lineups, starters and scratches for tonight's game:

Last warmup before the last home game before the break. Spencer Knight leads the Blackhawks onto the ice while Yaroslav Askarov does the same for the Sharks.

Dear January, you've been a big bag of suck, and you can't end soon enough. Granted, February starts with the annual silly varmint showing in my home state, but whatever. Still better than January.

Rick Bowness was asked about Charlie Coyle's defense (as well as his hat trick), which also got Bowness talking about Connor Bedard:

Coyle gets a hat trick with the empty-net goal with 1:03 remaining in regulation. It's 4-2 CBJ.

Kent Johnson holding at 14:22. Blackhawks power play coming up, trailing 3-2.

The third has turned into a game of hot potato.

We're through two, it's 3-2 Blue Jackets. SOG 24-17 CBJ.

No shots for the Blackhawks on that power play.

Now the Blackhawks will get a power play at 13:11 of the second. Voronkov holding SOG 22-13 CBJ.

Bedard to Nazar and it's 3-2 Blue Jackets at 10:49 of the second.

Blackhawks reviewed for goalie interference. Review says there wasn't any and the goal stands. Now the Blackhawks go on the kill for delay of game at 6:47.

Coyle to Olivier, who scores. Coyle just huge for CBJ tonight and it's 3-1 Columbus at 6:47.

Bad pass by Burakovsky goes right to Charlie Coyle and he doesn’t miss. It’s 2-1 CBJ at 1:23 of the second.

We're through one, it's 1-1. SOG 14-8 Blue Jackets.

Bedard on the rebound and it's 1-1 with 2.7 seconds remaining in the first.
