commentary...

the Chicago Blackhawks are fourth in the Central Division,and sixth now,in Western Conference,because,in two trips to Western Canada,they are 1-4-1,against Calgary Flames,Vancouver Canucks,and Edmonton Oilers,including a 8-4 shellacking,to the Edmonton Oilers,in which Sam Gagner got eight points,in that game,and they suffered a humbling 3-1 loss,to the Calgary Flames... they now go on a six game road trip,cutting it into two three game road trips,but their goaltending,and defense,along with their offense are not running on all cylinders... lately,they have struggled,and if they do not start putting things together,soon,they are in danger of not making the NHL playoffs... question to Chicago,do you want to go down the same road,as last year,when you had to sweat out,literally,the last game(number 1,230)of the season,before making the NHL playoffs?
