Blackhawks vs Devils – Lineups, Broadcast Info, Game Thread

There will be a red jersey on the ice tonight with a big, white “C” on the chest and 19 on the sleeves and back. Jonathan Toews is back, folks! We don’t know for sure how many games he’ll play in between now and the end of the season, he’ll be on the United Center ice on Saturday night against one of the best teams in the entire NHL. And I, for one, cannot wait!
