Good morning Chicago Blackhawks fans! The Chicago Blackhawks are back home at the United Center tonight, and they will face an Original 6 team that they have already defeated this week when the Montreal Canadiens come to town.

The Blackhawks won a fairly boring game on Wednesday night in Montreal when Corey Crawford stood on his head making every save possible in the Chicago Blackhawks 2-1 victory.  It will more than likely be #50 in net tonight for the Hawks when they make one of those great 6pm starts.

The big thing tonight is that the Chicago Blackhawks will be trying to tie their franchise record 11th straight victory.  They have won tight games like Wednesday night and they have won games rather easily like Friday night’s game against the Toronto Maple Leafs.   The thing about the winning streak is that it has taken the Hawks from hanging out around the Wild Card line to the Top of the Central Division.

The Hawks balance scoring went back to Patrick Kane show on Friday night so it will be interesting to see if the balance returns at the United Center, and here are some morning links to kick off your Sunday morning.
