Chicago Blackhawks are in a tailspin and they need a win in the worst way tonight, and they get a Central Division foe with the Dallas Stars coming to town.
The Chicago Blackhawks haven’t been this far out of the playoff picture since Jonathan Toews and Patrick Kane were rookies.
Now it’s time for the Chicago Blackhawks to start winning games and winning a bunch of them in a row. There are so many things that the Chicago Blackhawks have done so well for a decade, and now they just aren’t the same and the frustration in mounting.
The Chicago Blackhawks used to score first and win most games and now they seem to score first every game and never win. They used to never lose when they had leads in the third period, but guess what that happens now they don’t handle leads.

That doesn’t mean that the season is over. Like Patrick Kane said all it takes is one win to build something, and speaking of Kane seeing that puck go in during the final seconds against the Calgary Flames even though it was too late for the Hawks to comeback could be a big goal for him to see go in. That goal crashing the net could be the goal that gets Kane going on a hot streak in which he could put the team on his back.
The top line has to also be more productive no matter who’s on it. The first period of Tuesday night’s game the Top line found itself playing defense almost the entire time. They need to be putting the pressure on the Stars tonight for 60 minutes.
The Hawks need this win, if they lose in regulation you might as well stick a bow on it!
