END OF THE 2nd PERIOD
Blackhawks 1 (Greene)
Sabres 2
SOG: 18-9 BUF
Sabres controlled everything in the 2nd period and the Hawks could not string together passes, especially in their own zone, to save themselves. They're lucky it's still a 1-goal game. Have to clean that up.
Lafferty was in in an emergency situation
Toninato is getting a bone thrown to him at the end of the season
It's throwing him a bone to end the season
END OF THE 1st PERIOD
Blackhawks 1 (Greene)
Sabres 1
SOG: 6-6
Sabres have had some quality chances that Spencer Knight bailed the Hawks out on a number of times already. Greene's tally on the PK was a really nice finish on a great play by Mikheyev. Good back & forth to begin
Here's how the Blackhawks will line up tonight against the Sabres
Ethan Del Mastro and Frank Nazar are good to go
Dominic Toninato is IN
Second to last game of the season 😮

END OF THE 2nd PERIOD
Blackhawks 2 (Greene, Mikheyev)
Blues 4
SOG: 23-20 STL
Hawks had the lead for a moment but some breakdowns & lapses lead to Blues regaining & extending their lead. But, with the Kings beating the Oilers, the Blues are eliminated from the playoffs anyway
END OF THE 1st PERIOD
Blackhawks 1 (Greene)
Blues 1
SOG: 13-9 STL
Back and forth chances in the opening period. Soderblom making big saves to keep the Hawks in it. Blackhawks will start the 2nd period with 1:47 of a power-play.
Here's how the Blackhawks will line up tonight against the Blues
Arvid Soderblom starts in what is likely his last game of the year
Sacha Boisvert makes his UC debut
Sam Lafferty is IN at DEFENSE for Ethan Del Mastro (out)

FINAL SCORE (avert your eyes)
Carolina Hurricanes 7
Chicago Blackhawks 2 (Frondell 2x)
The Baby-Canes, who rested seven regulars, scored :19 into the game and never looked back.

END OF THE 2nd PERIOD
Blackhawks 1
Hurricanes 4
SOG: 15-15
Even with top players sitting, the Hurricanes are sticking to their identity and playing suffocating hockey. Hawks can't match their intensity and urgency. Chicago's passing has also been subpar tonight
END OF THE 1st PERIOD
Blackhawks 1 (Frondell)
Hurricanes 2
SOG: 7-7
Carolina has been dominating possession but the Blackhawks have had number of one and done grade A chances. Even with so many top players out for the Hurricanes, they're playing incredibly fast & structured
