The Blackhawks travel into Denver to face the hottest team in the NHL, the defending champion Avalanche who have won their last five games. They’ll be without Cale Makar tonight, but they’re still a wagon who are climbing the playoff seeds quickly as the rest of the Western Conference waits for them to get healthy. Will the scrappy Blackhawks pull off another upset?
