Blackhawks vs Canucks – Lineups, Broadcast Info, Game Thread
Tonight is still Pride Night at the United Center, just without the warm-up jerseys. How will the crowd react? Will the players feel any kind of a different vibe? Or will the events surrounding the game that still support the LGBTQ+ community still create an environment that is engaging and builds a strong audience? We’ll have to wait and see. This is the second half of a back-to-back with travel home from Minnesota in between; the Canucks won in Dallas last night. Also, Anders Bjork is ready to return so the Blackhawks sent Buddy Robinson back to Rockford earlier this afternoon.
