Blackhawks head coach Jeff Blashill talked roughly seven hours before the Blackhawks host the Red Wings on Saturday. That isn’t a normal timeline for a head coach talking on the second day of a back-to-back with travel between games and no morning skate; usually the coach will talk a couple hours before the game starts. Obviously, the circumstances were slightly different for the Blackhawks head coach on Saturday. His best player, Connor Bedard , suffered an injury inside the final second...

Tristan Jarry and Spencer Stastney will make their Edmonton Oilers debut tonight in Toronto and there’s a small belief that sometimes all it takes is a fresh start. Whether that belief is justified remains to be seen. Jarry is 9-3-1 in 14 games this season with a 2.66 GAA and .909 save percentage. Those are…

The Blackhawks return to the United Center on Saturday night to host the Detroit Red Wings about 24 hours after a miserable night in St. Louis was made significantly worse in the game’s closing seconds. We’ll get to Detroit in a bit because the more pressing issues deal with the home team in this game. Chicago lost 3-2 to the Blues last night but — more importantly — lost Connor Bedard to an apparent shoulder injury in the game’s closing seconds. Word on the severity of his injury won’t c...

If you mention Laurent Brossoit's name in Winnipeg, there are a lot of people who will tell you they wish he was still here. It's not a shot at Eric Comrie nor is it anyone saying that they want an upgrade in between the pipes, but it's a genuine appreciation for what Brossoit did while he was a member of the Jets. He often found wins for the Jets despite sitting for long spells while Connor Hellebuyck did his thing, but every time someone spoke of his contributions to the team it came with ho...

In the wake of Connor Bedard ‘s injury last night , the Blackhawks are recalling Nick Lardis from Rockford to hopefully help the offense. Lardis, 20, scored his 13th goal of the season for Rockford last night; he’s tied for fourth in the AHL overall and ranks second among rookies in goals. Lardis’ 26 points lead all AHL rookies entering Saturday’s action. Originally a third-round pick (No. 67) by the Blackhawks in 2023, Lardis broke records last year when he scored 71 goals in 65 reg...

I found this Stuart Skinner facial expression funny and appropriate today for a number of reasons. I'll get to the reason for the title in a second, but the biggest reason was because the man making the facial expression was traded in what was being described as a "blockbuster" trade by pundits hours before an actual blockbuster trade happened. Perhaps we should stop throwing around hyperbole? At this point, everyone is asking why this trade was made, but I think we need to look deeper than th...
