In perhaps the worst officiated game of this season (or any season in the last decade), the Blackhawks lost to the Anaheim Ducks on Wednesday night. More importantly, they may have lost another defenseman in the process. Former Blackhawks/current piece of crap James Wisniewski took a premier cheap shot on Brent Seabrook that ended his night in the second period. TSN’s Bob McKenzie described the hit on Twitter, saying ”Wisniewski’s hit on Seabrook ...

Cristobal Huet will not dress for Wednesday night's game in Anaheim because of the flu, and the Blackhawks have recalled Corey Crawford from Rockford. Given the issues the Blackhawks have had in net this season, should the Hawks start Crawford? Crawford has been the top goalie prospect in the Blackhawks organization for a couple seasons now, but has found a concrete ceiling over his head with the Hawks having signed veterans ...

On Sunday, the captain of the Washington Capitals, Alexander Ovechkin, took a cheap shot on Blackhawks' defenseman Brian Campbell that appears to have ended Campbell's season. Ovechkin clearly charged Campbell, and, with the puck clearly gone, continued to follow through on a lethal hit that has reportedly broken Campbell's collarbone, rib and gave the blue liner a 2nd degree concussion. What follows is a frame-by-frame look at how Ovechkin's hit was cheap ...

NHL league sources are reporting that Blackhawks defenseman Brian Campbell has broken a collarbone and rib and will likely miss the rest of the season, including playoffs, after a cheap shot from Alexander Ovechkin in Sunday's 4-3 loss to the Capitals.

Niklas ...

Need something to worry about? The Chicago Blackhawks hosted the league-leading Washington Capitals on Sunday just 20 hours after a devastating  loss in Philadelphia. How the team responded to the loss on the ice in such a short turnaround could have been a strong indication of how the final three weeks of the season could turn out. Then the Hawks threw everyone a curveball: both Kim Johnsson and Marian Hossa were scratches on Sunday ...

Circle March 13 on your calendar. If the Blackhawks lose a Game 6 or 7 in San Jose that keeps them from playing for the Stanley Cup, Saturday’s loss to the Flyers will likely be the cause for that elimination game being played somewhere other than the United Center . Cristobal Huet played an exceptional game for 57 minutes on Saturday, keeping almost everything the Flyers could throw at him out of ...

On Friday afternoon, Blackhawks coach Joel Quenneville made a seemingly subtle announcement that could have a significant impact on who will be between the pipes for them in the playoffs. In light of each goalies recent struggles, culminating with Cristobal Huet's removal against Detroit, the starting job is completely up for grabs. After Antti Niemi's strong performance against the Kings, Quenneville's confidence appeared to be at least teased into favoring the rookie. However, after ...

As the number of games remaining on the schedule continues to shrink, teams will emerge with a great chance to raise their own banner. Other teams will sneak in the back door and steal a playoff spot at the expense of another team. Not every team has a shot at the Cup, and not every team will even sniff the postseason. But there are some teams we would love to see ...
