I'm guessing the two game win streak will be over after this one.
Anyone else want to make these GDT's?
PREVIEW: Blackhawks at Predators - Jan. 26, 2021
TIME: 7 p.m. CT
TV: NBCSCH | RADIO: WGN 720-AM / TUDN 1200-AM | STREAM: NHL.TV & MyTeamsApp
After a successful two-game homestand, the Blackhawks are back on the road, opening their first true back-to-back of the season with meetings against the Nashville Predators on Tuesday and Wednesday.
TEAM RECORDS
CHI: 2-3-1, 5 PTS
NSH: 2-3-0, 4 PTS
LAST TIME OUT
Chicago picked up a second straight win on Sunday with a 6-2 victory over Detroit at the United Center, sweeping the two-game set at home. Pius Suter scored his first NHL goal less than five minutes into the contest and completed a hat trick on the afternoon in the third period. Connor Murphy (1G, 1A), Mattias Janmark (1G, 1A) and Patrick Kane (2A) registered multi-point outings as well. Kevin Lankinen added his second NHL win in his third consecutive start with 25 saves.
Nashville dropped both games of their two-game stint in Dallas over the weekend, 7-0 on Friday night and 3-2 on Sunday. Filip Forsberg and Mikael Granlund scored in the second tilt, while Viktor Arvidsson picked up a pair of assists as the team's leading scorer on the weekend.
The Blackhawks and Predators split their four-game season series during the 2019-20 campaign, with Chicago taking a 7-2 win on Nov. 16 in Nashville and a 2-1 OT win at hom on Feb. 21. The Predators took wins on Oct. 29 in Tennessee (3-0) and Jan. 9 in Illinois (5-2).
Patrick Kane has 61 points (24G, 37A) in 65 career regular-season games vs. NSH
DOWN TWO
Adam Boqvist and Alex DeBrincat were added to the NHL's COVID-19 Protocol List on Monday, meaning the two are unavailable for practices, travel and games until they are cleared.
THE PIUS IS LOOSE
With a hat trick against Detroit on Sunday afternoon, Pius Suter became the 29th player in National Hockey League history to score his first three or more career goals in the same game. He is the first Blackhawk to accomplish the feat since Bill Kendall did so in 1933 and just the second Chicago skater to register a hat trick within their first six career NHL games (Art Somers on Nov. 21, 1929).
ON A ROLL
The Blackhawks matched their second-longest franchise streak to begin a season with a power-play goal in their sixth consecutive game on Sunday. Chicago's eight power-play markers share third in the NHL this season and the team ranks third in power-play percentage at 42.1 percent.
KEEP IT 100
Connor Murphy reached 100 career NHL points (27G, 73A) after tallying a goal and an assist on Sunday. In the process, he also extended his current point streak (2G, 3A) to a career-high four games. It was his fifth career multi-point game, while finishing with a +4 plus/minus rating, the highest single-game total of his career. Murphy is averaging a season-high 22:27 of total ice time through six games.
He posted a career-high 19 points (5G, 14A) last season.
CHECK MATE
Nikita Zadorov matched a franchise record with 11 hits against the Panthers last Tuesday. The only other Blackhawk to log 11 hits in a game was Troy Brouwer (Oct. 16, 2010 vs. BUF). Since 2017-18, Zadorov leads all NHL blueliners in total hits with 708 and shares the lead among all NHL defensemen with 27 hits this season. He registered 175 hits last season, the seventh most hits among NHL defensemen.
