Vancouver Canucks (28-34-9) at Chicago Blackhawks (47-20-5)
7:30PM Central/5:30 Pacific
CSNC/RSNP


GOALIES:
Ryan Miller/Vancouver
Corey Crawford/Chicago


NOTES:
This falls into the category of a game the Hawks should win—which doesn't really matter of late, as they are beating everyone they face with regularity. Still, overconfidence always has to be guarded against. And the Hawks need to keep the pedal to the metal in terms of amassing points while the Minnesota Wild try to figure out what kind of team they really are. The Wild entertain San Jose tonight.

The Hawks will roll the following lines tonight:

Hayden-Toews-Panik
Panarin-Schmaltz-Kane
Hartman-Kruger-Hossa
Rasmussen-Kero-Jurco

Rookie John Hayden, fresh out of college, continues to "audition" on the top line, where he really looked quite comfortable, especially in his last game.

I'll recap tomorrow.
