Connor Bedard. Patrick Kane. Blackhawks. Red Wings. On national television (hallelujah). And the Blackhawks are coming in playing well, riding a two-game win streak.
With a couple days off between games, the Blackhawks are as relatively healthy as possible. Can they bring some of the strong performances they were able to generate winning three of their last four away from home to the United Center? And can they avoid giving Kane the opportunity for another breathtaking moment in overtime?

What to Watch For
- Connor Bedard vs. Patrick Kane. It was magic last year when Kane returned to the United Center for the first time. No tribute video and special moment during the game tonight. Bedard’s trying to find the back of the net. Expect special.
- Donato’s on a heater. Can he stay hot at home?
- Revenge game for Mrรกzek? Give me all of the smoke.
